  1. Did the boards just have a massive quote fail simultaneous grand mal seizure?

     

    It's like an EMP of inability to quote was detonated in the center of this thread.

     

    I thought it was just me.

     

    At least we've identified patient zero.

     

    Hey I tried,

     

    It didn't work.

     

    Sue me.

    Wait...he can do that?

     

    Yes, in the U.S. you can sue anyone for anything.

     

    It's how Hulk-Lincoln became so powerful.

  3. I'm like a perfect 0 for 50 on snipe hunts. :(

     

    I hear Daryl saw a Chupacabra once.

     

    I dont know how many people got that or thought it was funny, but when i read that i just spit my pepsi all over the place and almost fell of my chair( not sure why i thought it was so funny) carry on.

     

    I have that effect on people.

    Actually, come to think of it, that would make a fine custom title...

     

    Mods?

     

    Hello Mods? You there?

  5. Alright, I see a lot of interesting responses that are slightly off subject.

     

    That's never happened here before...I swear.

     

     

     

    I believe that I am now a member of photobucket.

  6. I just talked with Frank. He offered to take the book back. I said no.

     

    I love this book.

     

    My purpose in this thread, is to share with the community my experience with Metropolis.

     

    Yes, I am looking for some resolution. In no way does it involve financial compensation. It's not that much money.

    And what resolution would that be?

     

    The satisfaction in trying to harm someone's livelihood, despite their attempts to resolve the problem?

     

    Sir, you are a jerk.

  7. Just talked to the client on the phone -- offered to him two years after the fact that we're willing to take the book back (which is unusual, but I don't want the guy going away mad or thinking I'm unwilling to help). He says there's a rusted staple in the book, which I can't speak to without seeing it or a scan (hopefully there'll be one soon). He also mentioned the foxing, which is not uncommon for an F/VF book or a D Copy, but, again, we'll always take returns on raw books if the buyer is unhappy. I'm still willing to take the book back, but he seems to be happy with it otherwise, so there it is. At least we got to talk on the phone, which was a relief. You kids go back to Pokemon or whatever it is you kids do these days.

    You realize you now have a new return policy right? :)

     

     

  8. Let me see if I have this straight:

     

    1) You contacted Metropolis to buy a book.

     

    2) You don't ask for a scan of said book, even though you see it's just a stock picture.

     

    3) You then receive said book, and disagree with the grade.

     

    4) They offer a refund, but you really want to keep the book, despite it upsetting you enough to come here and complain about it.

     

    5) Now you start a thread to complain about the grading of a book, despite the fact that it couldn't be so bad since you are going to keep it.

     

    Are you serious?

     

    I mean, this is just completely and abjectly stupid on the buyer's part. You were lazy or careless in not asking for a scan, we have no idea what the book looks like, and now you are here demanding a response from Metro.

     

    I'd rather jump off a cliff than be a full time dealer and deal with like this.

     

    Spot on Brian. I wonder who the OP really is hm
