I'm still enjoying the run-around I got at his last auction...

Picked up this one that I've always wanted - a red Cobb, I think? Guaranteed not trimmed so I'm good with their word!

Frank-- what is your assessment of their auction ending format ? Do we need to have Steve lobby them too ?

Not a fan of their "auction will close when the last shill bidder falls asleep" format.
I kid I kid!

I'm not sure what is more offensive: their business model or them trying to fake us out.

I just looked through closing prices.... wow! Some were pretty low... not sure the last time I saw a PSA 8 56 Topps Mantle sell for $6500! There were a lot of no bids on items (certainly understand no bids on their raw stuff).
Will this be the last Candiman auction?

What i got from Candiman Auction was an email from them about their auction closing. What they got from me was my prompt identification of this email as spam.

I heard an old saying. "Burn me once, shame on you. Burn me twice, shame on me". I believed them at their word and gave them a chance in their inaugural auction. I got burned. I would be foolish to bid in anymore of their auctions. And that's all I have to say about that.

Seriously,
It is not really over...their auction closing format is as follows... 1. Post a time and date of initial close 2. Last bidder (shill or otherwise) 10 minutes no bid, closes lot. 3. Auction continues on ebay with "unsold" sold lots-- or actual unsold lots--or lots that sold but were not paid for-- or lots that sold to a friend and he is auctioning it off for us lots-- or lots that did not meet the hidden reserve, etc.... 4. Next auction will post soon and will include lots of lots of unsold material, new material, and material that was no paid for by our shill bidder last time... 5. It never ends!

How did people get burned ? I must have missed it. I seen them talking about not being battlefield. I seen everyone talking about what the bought. So what happened after that?

People who received their winnings generally seemed content but mostly on lower priced items. This is what I remember from the other thread.

I can’t believe they came on here to talk all that talk to just be a confidence man. Well collecting is a battlefield. The fact that they never came back to say hey guys you got it all wrong is enough for me.

Candiman — What Did You Get?
I can say I did not bid Daniel aka/Candiman and won’t be bidding again. Every one of his cards was not one grade off but 3-4 grades off. In fact he emailed me asking what low grades I got.
It is if someone cracks them out of holders because they think they are better and sells them for what they think or what public to think. I saw the Jackie Robinson card I won and returned because it had creases, water staining, residue, etc. To me that would be a 3 but advertised as an Ex. Can’t wait to see in that 3 holder.

That is my biggest fear as well, when I sell NM/MT looking cards in SGC "A" holders. One was a Clemente rookie, I sold for $1,000 that looked like an '8'. I can just picture someone cracking it out and selling for for $10,000+.

Candiman — What Did You Get?
You can picture? That was the clear cut definition of the Battlefield business.
Crack them out, pretend you don’t know sh*t, sell them and then block the smart people that warn others because you screw them. Wasn’t that a great business model? It is called fck the public. And it worked until way too many complaints. And today’s business model: create bullsht auction house, buy cards on eBay (again), crack out, pretend you don’t know anything about cards or grades, throw in some bible talk and then fck the public! As long as you mention Church you are “perceived” as honest in your own head! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by ezez420; 05-09-2018 at 11:54 AM.

"1 card returned by Ed and I'm sure he will let you guys know that he had a positive experience with us and plans to bid in our future auctions."
