I think that was the sellers first and only eBay sale. Man, if that thing would have gone auction instead of buy-it-now.... That seller would have flipped his shit when the board hit $1k+ HA!
I've heard of other stories like this one. But you really have to be checking in all the time to win these ones. |

Its too bad the BIN wasn't hit by someone who really appreciated the score.
I would have kept the board & bin story as opposed to trading it for cash in less than a weak. |

This "case" is about as interesting as a Judge Judy re-run |

Couldn't agree more. |

The guy who bought this collects Powell and Natas primarily. I sold him a Natas Portrait about 6 months ago, and asked him to look out for a Neptune for me. It just happens that he ended up with this one, and so he knew it was going to a good home! I'm happy to have it. |

It's a great score regardless..but he made a quick $550 of you, I wouldn't be doing him any favours in the future. I keep an eye out for decks for other collectors all the time, but it doesn't mean I'm going to buy them and flip it to them for double the money. |

The above is true - Milky always has his eyes out for me - thanks mate.
That being said amazing bat nose score that I would have happily paid the same for. |

Some of you may recall my very first post on SkullandBones back in November of last year. http://www.skullandbonesskateboards.c...76&highlight=
I was the guy who bought a Natas Portrait for like $169 on eBay from an estate sale seller. I was lucky to have bought it, but it wasn't a board that fit my collection. I ended up selling to the guy who I just bought the Neptune from (he paid $900 for the Natas). So I made some good money and gave it to a guy who was fuckin stoked! We figured the board was worth a bit more than that, so he was happy paying up...
Of course, now the tables have turned, and he bought the Neptune for cheap, so it was only fair I paid up for it.
Remember this:
