Wolverine PF Exclusive for $2,000????
I noticed two unusual sales for the Wolverine PF Exclusive as we were processing updates for our
Sideshow Premium Format Sales Report.
Historically, The Wolverine PF Exclusive has sold for an average of $375 since its release until the end of April. Here are the most recent sales we’ve recorded on the report for April & May:

Wolverine - Exclusive 330534663124 2011-03-02 $305.51
The first sale for this month was at $499, which was a new high, but certainly reasonable as it has sold as high as $450 previously. The next day, another one sold at auction for an insane $2,025 sales price! The auction looked legit, although the seller had a feedback below 50, but all of the buyers had high feedback scores. A week later, the next auction ended at $1,025. A more reasonable price, but still almost triple the historical average from the last 6 or 7 months.
Looking closer, it looks like the same buyer had the winning bid for both auctions and placed them within a few minutes of each other.

It's hard to believe that a serious buyer would place two $1,000+ bids on the same item within a few minutes of each other. Either the buyer's account was stolen or the buyer is trying to artificially inflate prices.
For now, we have recorded the sales transactions in the Sideshow Premium Format Sales Report, but will likely remove them unless the sales are authenticated. For more details and to view the original sales transaction, please visit our report page at:
