So, generally speaking, how much hyperbole is considered allowable before it becomes something more along the lines of "misleading"?

If advertise a book for sale here in the forums and say that it's "extremely hard to find in grade" (like, let's say a very early Tec, that would have GPA numbers behind it) or "this is a hot book with the TV show coming" (like a Marvel Premiere #15, let's say), I would think those are perfectly okay phrases to use in a sales thread.  I've sometimes used similar comments myself, so I don't see anything wrong with making a comment on your own book in the purposed of salesmanship.

But what of a seller who says that a book (which will probably have high demand on it) has very few copies left on eBay (as of this typing, there are 25 on eBay currently) and claims sold out at "insert major online store here" and everywhere else, but one of the two largest online stores seemingly has multiple copies in stock as well?    Would others have problems with making claims like that?

 please at 10% off total

Uncanny X-Men #210 -- VF/NM -- 9.0, Uncanny X-Men #211 -- NM- 9.2 -- sold as set for $25

Purchase this set, and receive for FREE all of the following X-Men issues!  #184, 185, 189, 194, 195, 198, 199, 202, 203, 208, & 209.  

All of these issues look very nice from the front, but all have small stains (from water) that knock the overall grade down.  They all lie flat and the stains are very minor in some case.  This is a great deal for someone wanting nicer reader copies. A scan of one of the free issues (the #184) is provided for comparison of the freebies overall condition

All yours -- thanks again!

Soft closing the thread -- invoices are starting to go out.  If you see anything you want, grab it now before it's too late!

Andy, I'm pretty sure I claimed the WW #204 already.

One last bump before I soft close this later tonight . 

Still plenty of very good deals left here at 10% off -- and I'll listen to offers on multiple books, or if you've already purchased in the thread, so don't be shy!

One and only discount, folks -- take 10% off of any of the non-table books listed (this applies to the two slabs, and books already discounted) .  Thread will stay open through the weekend, though I'll probably start sending invoices out sometime tomorrow.  If you see something you want, now's the time to snag it.

Thanks again to everyone who's stopped by!

And that will do it, except for the last mystery "key" book to see if anyone is still paying attention here.   I'll post a recap later on, and as a reminder, my thread in G/S/B is wrapping up with plenty of discounts to go around, so please check it out.

And our last book is ...

Tales of the Teen Titans #44 -- 1st appearance of Grayson as Nightwing -- VF/NM -- 9.0 -- $60

There's a VERY small color-breaking crease at the very top right corner.  This book might grade higher, but I want to stay conservative.

Again, any questions, please PM me and don't be afraid to make an offer.  Thanks again for checking this thread out!
