Alas, the only mini-bust I have is the Wolverine 25th Anniversary Limited Gold Edition! That's up for auction here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1083389920

So far as Nightcrawler stuff, at a quick glance I've got a few OverPower cards and a Hildebrandt signed painted card featuring Kurt that I can put up for auction if you're interested!

I'd love to pick something up off of you, Eric... especially if you have a spare ORIGIN #1 (for my dumb brother) or ULTIMATES #1 (for my dumb friend).

I know a lot of dumb people.

It was a tough decision to put a reserve on it, but considering you're not only getting a signed original script (with a personalized message to you from Bob Weinberg to boot) but also original art (which usually goes for around that much on its own), I still think its a great bargain!

Well someone had better, because it needs to hit the reserve before it will sell and that means it needs to be about double what it is now!

Come on people, this is the bargain of a lifetime for any Marvel/X-Men/Cable/Weinberg/Ryan fan!

But, if I can figure it out. Then, I'll do my best to get the X-Treme. I'll probably have to email X-Fan or someone on this, but, how do we pay, Credit Card, money order, que?

All you need do for eBay is sign up for an account and you can bid on auctions. Just be sure to read the auction text to find out whether the seller will ship to your location, as well as to find out about what payment methods the seller accepts.

I've relisted the X-Treme X-Men #1 issue as it didn't sell the first time around. You'll find it towards the end of the list of X-Fan auctions.

Good luck with bidding!

$100 Australian, which roughly translates to $50 US. And I've seen that card going for almost double that on eBay before.

I love Wolverine and Hugh Jackman to death but I can get an autographed 8x10 color glossy of Jackman as Wolverine for half that price!

Well someone bought it for AU$100/US$50, so they obviously didn't think it was too much!

Hey all,

This auction has just over a day to go, and unbelievably it hasn't hit the reserve price yet!!!!!

It has around US$50-60 to go before it hits the reserve, and it absolutely must sell! I cannot afford to relist it, nor did I think I'd have to given what's on offer!!!!!

So if you're wanting to win this, best get in there and get it up to the reserve price within the next 30+ hours!!!!!
