As an Xbox and Xbox 360 owner, even I admit the console war is over before it even began. Going to pre-order a PS4.

Finally got myself some JIM.

Would anyone know why my copy has the (Tony Stark) bit missing from the label?

Or in short: Friends are more important than money. Thanks for this. Sometimes I wish the boards had a character count like twitter. More people should utilize the TL;DR

I can confirm that Dillon has refunded me the full amount. As I recently found out, he has gone through some tough times lately and I will give forgive him for the lack of communication and confusion. He has tried to do everything to fix the wrongs and I am satisfied as to how this turned out. I hope he learns for future transactions that communication is key. Hopefully we can all show a little compassion as I think everyone deserves a second chance. Thanks again mate and hope it all works out for you.

Guys, I'm speaking to Dillon now so lets drop this until we settle this. At least Dillon is attempting to work something out now.

I was happy with the money I received cause I did not want to go through the whole trouble of fighting for the remaining money but seeing as Dillon is eager to restore his reputation, I have messaged him to see if we can work out an agreement. If he agrees to do the right thing truly then ill be happy to give him the benefit of the doubt on this transaction. We shall see.

I know it has been discussed before, but I believe the only way to address all these issues is with the introduction of feedback threads opposed to Kudos thread. If someone has a bad experience then why should they not let others on the board not know to save them from similar situations. I did not know that ones kudos thread could not be trusted when I went ahead with my last purchase. It's not so easy for the more casual boardies to stay up to date with these probation threads etc. Sure people can abuse possible feedback threads but the same can be said for the Kudos thread, with mates posting bogus kudos messages. The feedback threads will have strict rules and obviously be moderated (however little moderation occurs, nonetheless). That's my on the topic. It's probably been done to death but just shows there needs to be a change.

Ill make further comment after 40 days.

Not to be picky.. But it was $550 for the book, $50AUD western union fee. Then I got a PayPal fee on the refund, lost money on the conversion etc. I'm out roughly 60$ but I'm not complaining. I'm happy I got anything back tbh.

In the description for the payment, Dillon stated it was a refund for the comic. I should be alright?

How much did you purchase it for if you don't mind me asking?

Oh it most certainly does

Im grateful for Dillon for the refund but his story does not make sense. 1) bluehawaii buys the book from longdillon 3 weeks ago after the book apparently is sent back for non-delivery. 2) I receive a message from dillon on the 22nd of April, to give it a few more days to see if the book arrives. I was never informed that the book was shipped back to him until today when he sent the refund. It all seems a bit iffy to me but I'm glad its over.

I can confirm I got my refund via PayPal. Thanks again for that dillon, though it was a very frustrating ordeal.

In hindsight I was stupid not to question the others who have purchased from him if he did have PayPal or not. As I saw he had a very positive kudos thread, I felt like I could trust him. I have used WU before on this board when dealing with keys and all were perfect. In summary, I'm an insufficiently_thoughtful_person.

Dem double quotes. Beauty!

An update on the JIM 83 saga. The last message I got from Dillon was on the 22nd of April. Still no sign of the book and my messages since the 22nd are still unread.

Still nothing. I confronted the seller regarding his statement that he did not have PayPal and he said he got it after I paid for the book. It is frustrating and I have given up on ever receiving the book. I guess this is a harsh lesson for me to not even trust the Kudos threads on these boards.

That's why paying with WU is always a crapshoot. Did you contact other buyers in his thread and see if they recieved their books? All said they received their books in reasonable times, that's why I'm more confused.

User said he never had PayPal. I offered to pay via WU since he had a positive kudos thread.

Im going crazy Waiting days for one line answers that don't help me at all.

My Image #1s are building.

Post them up when you get them!

Purchased a comic from longdillon1 and paid in full on the 28th of February. Received a reply to my messages around once a week. The payment was picked up fine via WU and seller acknowledged picking up the payment. Said he will ship on Monday Mar 11 2013. Still no explicit confirmation that he shipped the book to me. I propose placing him on the probation list if I do not get a reply within a week or the book does not arrive within the same time.
