That actually sucks as an example of charity when compared to all proceeds from a print sale going to a family raising a kid who is lucky to have reached two years old. I'm not trying to start fudge, just giving an honest opinion.

I don't find it inconceivable for someone to register on ebay just to bid on something they find important. Not everyone in the world has an ebay account. Also, only the one bidder with zero feedback is new, the others were registered over 5 years ago.

Btw, first person to post a pic of Vizzini from the princess bride gets the captain obvious award :wink:

Charity auctions often fetch higher prices.
Also, Dan donated this print.
This auction is on the up and up.

And Im willing to bet, that some of the bidders, have great hope on the print # (low), or something else special, due to it coming directly from Dan.

By the way, this print is sick. I had to buy it in the aftermarket. Worth every cent.

i agree, i have two of them.

i still think this is being shill bid. the new dude with 0 feedback, the multiple bids, the extremely high price, it just makes it fishy.

Mods ... the last sale ($202) for this should not be included in the sales averages ... it was a charity auction.
