marvinthemartian Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Does seem a tad steep, but what is the going rate for actual original wartime dated photo's, as opposed to copies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starfire Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 If someone will pay it, it's justified. Looking at their other listings and feedback, it seems that plenty of people do pay good money for things that would seem, to me, to be of little value. Capitalism at its best. Cheers, Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must put some of mine up for sale. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/World-War-II-U-S-Army-Photo-German-Troops-Flee-1944-/190362802255?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5281d84f Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
79x100 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 For news agency images, these are far too expensive. They're unlikely to be unique and will also be found in archives. Some buyers think they're buying 'copyright' which of course they aren't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utt61 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I've noticed this sort of trend recently, however I've never actually seen any indication that these things sell at such crazy prices. Quite often now with rare or rare-ish books you'll find similar - a book which perhaps is worth £50 to £150 second-hand, but some online seller (usually in the US) has a copy which is listed at 10 to 20 times that. I imagine that if you're not in a rush to sell, eventually someone will perhaps pay way over the odds. It is however rather different when the subject is such a completely naff and uninteresting photo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
79x100 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 The book pricing can be due to the 'Amazon algorithm'. If two sellers have the same item and want to pitch in slightly higher than the cheapest. https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20110425/03522114026/infinite-loop-algorithmic-pricing-amazon-how-book-flies-cost-2369865593.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
