should seller's charge the 3% paypal fee to customers...

yeah that one was definitely on the short list!

oh yeah 6. Is pressing restoration?

Just because there might be a definitive right or wrong answer, doesnt mean it will go away... 1. IH180 vs 181. Cameo vs 1st appearance 2. BB54 vs BB60. True first appearance of Teen Titans. 3. Can comics be sent via media mail? 4. When will Walking Dead bubble burst? 5. Should I get ___________ signed? what else am I missing?

but how could it be the first appearance of something that didnt exist? because it couldnt exist without the input/presence of all of its founding members, which would include Speedy, who didnt appear 'till TT4. (can we get a whole TT1 vs TT4 argument going to drown out the BB54/60 that's been going on for 100 pages?)

so with wikipedia being a questionable source is the DC wiki any more valid? cause when they say (on the DC wiki) "Their original founders were Aqualad, Kid Flash, Robin, Speedy and Wonder Girl" it makes me wonder... BB54: KFlash, Robin, Aqualad BB60: KFlash, Robin, Aqualad, Wonder Girl but what about the 5th founding member Speedy? Speedy wasnt a member until Teen Titans 19. But then how did he help found them? He didnt show up in a Teen Titans-esque book until Teen Titans 4 (though at that point he still wasnt a member apparently), so maybe he helped found the team even though he wasnt a member yet? One could conceivably help found something without being a member of it, but that still means until Speedy's involvement (since he was a "founder") the team was not founded, so it didnt exist... despite being 4 issues into a series. this is why I dont read this thread... it hurts my head. So is TT4 the first "full" appearance of T Titans with everything prior being "partial appearance"? (and really my perspective is, if the marketplace had made their decision, then who cares?) Has the market ever shifted on a first appearance? (honestly asking, I dont know)

What is the "infamous Betty book"? there are a few fun double entrende books including this one

Yes. In addition, a seller shouldn't have to pay extra against the possibility that the goods might not arrive in good condition. Successful delivery is a given in the deal. Depends entirely on the type of agreement the buyer and seller agree to. I am referencing fob point of shipment which some buyers choose to save on cost of shipping. Their choice and many choose it. Assumption of risk is a part of that type of contract and it shifts from seller to buyer at the point the item is released by seller to the shipping entity. What you're referring to is "fob on delivery" where ownership doesn't transfer until safely in the buyers hands. That's more common, of course, but it's not the only way. People are free to make any agreement they want. Some folks don't want the cost of the more expensive shipping when buying (especially international air or express vs surface) and assume the risk. Sure any type of agreement can be reached. But the typical and generally expected conditions of a transaction (unless otherwise stated) are that a) ownership transfers upon delivery. b) seller is responsible for ensuring delivery of item in the condition described in the sale c) any damage or loss remains on the seller (for which s/he can insure if s/he wants) d) even in a "no returns" sales thread, books that are damaged in transit can be returned for full refund. it makes no sense to me that the buyer should be deciding insurance, since they arent the one packing the book.... but thanks to the discussion on this I'll be sure to never decline insurance from a seller, instead putting the onus back on the seller since that's where it should belong.

nice review. I love the falcon design (with the hinged pieces to open the top for lots of play. I feel like Rey's Speeder will be the set that there are cases and cases of and it'll be cheap once the movie is out of the theaters...

Theres another can of worms, "no returns" I guess if you get a damaged slab or shaken damaged book like the ones Wally posted...you're skrewed? No worms. You offer insurance. They take it and insurance can be claimed. They pass and you pack in a reasonable way it's on them for passing. No returns is only undone for material breach ( you sent something materially different than agreed upon ) just like in any other business deal. Pretty simple I'm going to disagree here. Insurance is for the seller, not the buyer. If the seller ships uninsured and the book gets damaged; well that seller is out of luck because the buyer paid for a book in a particular condition and is entitled to that book or a full refund. Unless insurance is offered and the buyer expressly waives. Express waiver trumps damage in transit if the damage is the reason the item is substantially different than sold. but the seller is also expressly waiving insurance right? And it's the sellers responsibility to deliver (via means) the product as described. If not as described then the seller did not meet his/her obligation and the book can go back. insurance is for the seller, not the buyer. I've had a few books disappear as both a buyer and a seller. When I was the buyer I was out nothing, when I was the seller I was out (except I bought insurance, so it was on me to do the insurance claim). Further, When dealing with the USPS, the SENDER is typically the one who is able to open claims, initiate investigations and such. I know some people have helped me out as the receiver, but others have said nope that the guy who sent the package has to start the investigation...

just ball parking it based on the scans, happy to change them. I dont track who owns what... let me know what their grade is and I'll happily change it. I would suggest you not grade people's comics from a scan. If a book is not graded by a company, then I would put in grades only when they are supplied by the owner and I would indicate that the owner supplied the grade. done and done...

when you get a PM from a new user with like 3 posts offering to buy the books since the other guy didnt buy them take note.... probably rip67's new account...

at least his return policy is clear.... (no returns on a a lot of very grade dependant moderns and no scans...what could possibly go wrong for the buyer?!?!

and I just think that's the way to do it... and Im not sure how to navigate that the guy has broken promises, but Im not sure that in a donation thread to help him out is where to air that laundry....

Wow thread-crapping in a fundraising/donation thread... new all time low. I dont disagree with the posters point, but I also dont think that a fundraising thread is the place to re-raise the issue. All the post might do is dissuade someone from participating and helping in the thread.

not to resurect the thread but

Hi Alan, Glad you came up for air! Thanks for the camp code info on the Startling. 5th confirmed 1 series book.

the second one is World's Finest #199 the first, you'd have to look inside, because I dont think that cover was the same as used in the US.

Poor form on buyers part. What's your return policy, cause if you dont work with him on price, the odds of a return are getting higher.... just cause a past ebay sale was lower doesnt mean todays price should be the same...
