Speedy is right. Its time to chill.

Sounds like everyone got refunds... even after heated debates. If refunds were given... time for banter to cease. There is no need to bash each other if the offended party got what they wanted (refund).

Rupp wisdom for the future... forget partial refunds unless TOTALLY AGREED upon by BOTH PARTIES.

Go the full refund route. If the buyer doesn't want to return them, then you've done all you can to appease them by offering full refund. Partial refund just results in "partial happiness".

Good lord theres a lot of anger in the discussion area today...

Everybody just needs to step away from their keyboards for a minute or two... maybe have a tall glass of Tang... and then just relax a little.

Where's POV and is soothing posts when we need him ?

Six whole dollars.... ?

Mail cash... its the only sure way not to get screwed over

 

Did you get that $500 payment yet, mailed with unmarked bills and all ones?

 

The one that came in the clear sandwich baggie with the zip lock top? Sure did... counting that drug & donkey porn moola right now

I give away free cat hair with my parcels. The tape dispenser I use always adds cat hair to most of the tape. My parcels are usually just over 2lbs, why is that?

 

I've received a bag and board taped like that before ... at least I think it was cat hair

 

I forget who it was, but one board member would give out negatives on Ebay if someone had hair on the tape they used because he was so disgusted by such things.

 

Note to self - wear hair bonnet when packing comics.

Or a cup if working naked

When do we start outing sellers that ship slabbed books without protective bags?

 

 

Or worse yet. Those that ship in Priority boxes, and when they tear the self-adhesive paper off, they toss it in the box with the packing material in their best "I'm done with this book, so here. Take my garbage too!"

 

 

 

I swear there is no pleasing this Nick guy...

 

I packed his cute little Iron Man pictures in a $30 hardback with one or two lint balls and maybe a blade or two of dog hair... and he practically sheeets on himself.

 

I swear I'm thinking his wife has finally driven him to drink bath salts

Is there four "members" on that statue ? Or has the gold made me experience a "wiener visual overload"

You have got to tell her to quit opening your mail sir.

Put your foot down and MANNUP

I'm not the only one, right?

 

Man. You have issues.

 

Y'know, I hear that all the time!

I understand sir.... its hard to trust anyone these days. Especially scally-waggage like Boscoe and Snake

You should unfriend that person for liking Valiants.

 

Why? You wear Garanimals so as to know how to dress, and I still keep you on the friends list.

 

Back off the Valiants.

 

 

FIGHT FOR HUGS !

Tape?

 

 

How many PMs you think hit his account today for new business?

 

 

Heck Nick... you and I could start a taping business. Interested? I got about four rolls in the desk we can use as start up collateral

 

Wait a minute. Is this that business venture where I give you like $10,000 to purchase a franchise and you ship me the tools of the trade?

 

 

If you act in the next 24 hours... I will include this as well. (Standard additional shipping charges will apply).

Tape?

 

That is an option. It would not be my first choice. And no, I would not use glue.

 

Joe,

If you could ellaborate please. I don't want you to give out any trade secrets, but how do you attache the piece without tape or glue and still get a Blue label??

Get it wet... then hot press the sheeet out of it Paul

If it helps I would be happy to work on the book to remove what damage I can and attach the missing piece back on the rest of the cover. In case you are wondering I can do this and still retain a blue label on the book.

Awesome of you to do this for free to help these two guys out Joey!

You sir... are a saint and you also rock

that was packing though, mine was double boxed and you can check my sales thread for the before pics, it wasn't brittle at all 7.5 copy with real nice pages.

 

And that is the attitude I've seen since I told him about the damage. His packing is beyond reproach since the books were double boxed, never mind that double boxing is worthless when the books are free to bounce around inside the box because they aren't taped to the cardboard press in the middle and the press isn't taped together with more than one piece of cellophane tape.

 

Instead to him it's more likely that, after my 5 years on the board and buying thousands and thousands of dollars worth of books here, I decided to pull a book out of a bag by the corner of the front cover and then, to cover the damage, crushed the corner of the book and the 1/2 back to fool and rip him off. And I decided to do that over a f'n $175 book; it's a ludicrous as it is maddening. Right now he is just another sell who "didn't have a problem refunding his money" until it actually came time to do it.

 

Hate to tell you, but you wouldn't be the first one to try to pull that scam and I have always refunded anyone's money but this doesnt even closely look right. Corner bang yes, could happen; ripped corner INSIDE the dang bag, no way. That's where my problem lies. And no need to start cursing and ranting, that's why we're taking it here

 

I'm "ranting" because I bought a book, it arrived damaged and I've been called a liar for asking for some sort of refund. And I hate to tell you this, but books get damaged in shipping no matter how bullet-proof you think your packing is.

 

Was the book insured?

 

I don't think so. I didn't see anything about insurance on the label, I think it just had delivery confirmation.

Was this $175 purchase covered with postal insurance?
