I am on here actually ) Just not a regular user
Purely out of curiosity, have any copies of this changed hands lately? Last I heard it was in the $13-15k range but I'm wondering if that's still true...
(This was in part prompted by the recent Camelot sale of The Regulators - it seems like that one has appreciated a bit in the last couple years if a (slightly) damaged copy sold for $12.5k in less than a week.)

Sorry, you are right.. I was at 11K ( I was the 2nd bidder on the auction) which is why I was thinking that number. I would still say 11000-12500 is a pretty good peg. I had one for sale at 15000 for awhile with no bites not long ago and owner decided he could keep it as his $$ changed.
EDIT: If memory serves, there was only 2 bidders after like $8K too...

I think your friend got a great deal either way. An eBay auction probably wasn't the best selling format to get top dollar for a high value item like this. The pool of collectors willing to spend 15K is somewhat small, so if you throw an auction on eBay that runs for 7 or 10 days, you run the chance that some of those people will miss it. I've sold a lot of things on eBay at auction, and sometimes you're happily surprised, and sometimes you're angrily surprised at auction results. For all we know, someone may have been waiting to snipe that auction at the last minute, but missed it for any variety of dumb reasons. I've certainly missed a few, by seconds sometimes.

Does anyone know if Carlos/Bob Jackson (apologies if I'm mangling these names) has been in on Suntup? I know he doesn't post here anymore, but assuming he still collects (as I believe others have said), it would only make sense that he partakes in the awesomeness that is Suntup.

Nice.

Back in 2017, Paul (Suntup) met Bob Jackson, delivering a lettered of "Misery" I guess, and they did a facebook video about his famous basement
