  1. Case was closed and paypal returned all of the charges. I still can't believe EBAY will still let these people advertise.
  2. Ok...I couldn't resist and bought what would have been a great book at a great price. Figured there was a good chance it was BS, but you only live once right? Anyway, I get a tracking number and think...OK, this might work out. A few days later, I get a text saying the box was outside...didn't hear a truck but look outside and guess what? no box...WTF? That night the same exact comic (CGC certified) shows back up on EBAY so I knew it was a scam and I started circling the wagons. It turns out empty packages were sent to a recently deceased lady in my town via UPS and the USPS. So I'm basically the mark (self inflicted) of some complex, interstate shipping 3-card monty scam (I'm sure there is a more exciting name for it) which probably involves some kind of insurance fraud as well. Anyway, I'm dealing with UPS, PAYPAL and my credit card company and I'm sure it will all get sorted out...I just can't wait to tell the wife that she married a genius. Please note that I'm laughing at myself while I write this...don't try this at home.
  3. Total and complete fraud. Don't ask me how I know...LOL.
  4. Appreciate the insight. I'll post this once C&P and grading is done...in 375 days or whenever that might be...Thanks!
  5. A couple of shots of the lower spine and some other pics. Thanks so much for taking a look--JC
  6. Hey there, just getting back into collecting after a 20 year hiatus (my first post here). I've had this GL #89 since '97 and thinking of having it slabbed and graded. The book looks great but there are a few small issues. Paper extends out from cover on upper right corner (not sure what this is called). There is a crease on back lower left corner and a couple of spots on mid/ upper right side of back cover. There is also a pressure crease (or line) on the front cover just above the "save" that I can't pick up in a photo. Anyway, 2 questions: 1): Would there be any reason to press this issue? 2): What do you think the grade is? Thank you in advance--JC
