eBay Watch: May 2010

Well I’m really excited about the selection this month. April was tough, but I really enjoyed mining for decks in May. There were tons of interesting decks, some that went for big $, and some that didn’t, but were interesting nonetheless. And lots of cool colorways too! This was actually one of my favorite columns to write, and a lot of it was written while I was waiting to be called up while at jury duty! At least I put the 3-hour wait to good use!

  1. I love to check out your eBay Watch posts! There are always so many decks that I completely missed. That Roskopp collection is fantastic! Well, kinda steep in price but that would look amazing on a wall! Good post bro!

  2. “Shite Shadows” on the Lance FP? Now THAT’S what I call an innovative graphic 🙂
    That Brand-X complete is the dog’s bollocks, and I’m digging the Lamar, too.

    Just when you think it never comes;there is the next month’s Watch!
    I love to read it,great job again Neil!Most completes in a month ever?
    I followed some auctions but a lot of others I seem to have missed this time.
    I gotta work harder on the searching part…And I guess no cool freestyle decks this time.On to the next watch!

  5. Thanks for mentioning the new DEVO album. I missed that one. I sampled it and it sounded good.

    As to the conundrum about which version to buy, iTunes has a deluxe version (16 songs and a video) for $12.99, a regular version (12 songs) for 10.99. Amazon has 15 tracks for 9.99 The Devo blog said Target had it on sale this week for 8.99, but when I went over there it was 9.99 and the CD had 12 tracks. I decided to go with the deluxe. It also has an iTunes album interface with images, video,liner notes

    1. Blue vinyl version will be out in July. It’ll come with the cd.

    2. Man, what a pain!

  6. Cool, as usual !
    Thx HoNeil.

    Thanks for featuring my Reggie Barnes. The mummy seems to be screened in a thicker high gloss paint, surrounded by more flat tones making it literally pop out of the tomb, almost 3-D like. Really sweet graphic effects.

    Those Eddie Reaugatis are so excellent!

    RE: How to display the Skate Wing.
    Hang it from the ceiling so it looks like it’s an airplane banking a turn. Maybe you could make some WWII model airplanes and hang them , too, so it looks like a dogfight.

    1. Display it? RIDE IT!

      Actually, the WWII planes is probably how I’d do it too.

    Thanks for the latest update mate – I love tuning into these every month. Keep up the good work.

  11. I love reading your monthly reports! Great stuff! I just wanted to respectfully point out that Gregg Ayres has at least 4 different signature decks that I know of, two with Tunnel (graphics are a sticker of Gregg’s red arrow with Tunnel logo) and 2 Sims decks, one that’s 12″ wide. Let me know if you want pics. Regards, Mike

  12. Just discovered your column and it’s definitely great, addictive!

  13. i recently got from friend Tommy Guerrero
