I don't get it. HOW does it not have a bid???

[Boogieman]

LOL! Seriously?? WHY would I care? As I stated once already I have NO intentions of ever parting with this pin again. I did once and regretted it. I got VERY lucky in getting her back and she is not going anywhere. I don't care it is sells for $600 or $2000. I would not sell mine so the value of it does not matter simply b/c I own it. What a rude assumption! I could understand if I were linking up pins I had for sell to try and get more money for mine but something I am not selling?? Why? I have said the reason for my post is that I was more or less in shock at the value of some of these newer pins being more than an older and much better made pin.




Thanks for this!!

You are taking this too personal. I asked I did not assume. You are apologizing to others on this thread but are getting upset with me for asking a question? That's why I ASKED. and didn't say that is what you are doing.

Well the pin sold so this thread really has no use anymore as it is inciting flames.

I am not sure how I could not take that personal?? I mean, why ask a question about something being self serving if not to come across as rude?

Not a big deal to me either way, the questions just came across as pretty snarky.

I'd have so many damn pins if the kids didn't have to eat everyday!

we are supposed to be feeding them EVERYDAY?!?! uh oh.

Let me first say I seldom even look at EBay these days so my opinion may not mean too much here. I understand wanting to keep an auction on the "down low" especially when it is listed incorrectly. I remember being there many times when I could afford to buy a lot of pins. I also see this as a good source of information not only for a newer trader/collector but for that person who this might have been a grail for that had not seen it. I LOVE this pin and I do not have it! I wish I could have bid on it! Gomes pins are GREAT in my opinion and I love Aurora in blue or as Briar Rose pins. I saw nothing wrong with this being on the discussion forum. (At first I thought it was about an auction on this site and that is why I looked at it). The person that posted this meant nothing more than to create a discussion about this particular pin and the prices of some older pins going down. I appreciated the discussion on it as well. I have a pin in my collection that was solidly at $450 to $500 that I am now seeing at $299. I am hoping it is because of the economy and it will rebound but this discussion on the value of pins is worth having in my opinion. Thanks for the posting.

I don't think Amanda did this for any personal reasons or trying to hurt anyones chances. It actually seemed like a good discussion that turned bad. It is sad to see these older pins being over looked for New Tangeled Marquees were Flynn's face is anything but pretty. lol Now I do have some Tangeled pins on my wants so I am not above the hype. I just see what she was trying to say. I wish I collected back when these higher quality pins were offered.

I know Amanda didn't mean to, but still my first reaction to reading the thread was that someone, somewhere was having this reaction. And I made a comment about it.
