From Mezco: PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Feared by the guilty and the innocent alike, Batman: Gotham by Gaslight joins the One:12 Collective!

His cloak cape features an integrated posing wire and his utility belt can store up to three throwing knives. Three head portraits are included, featuring an unmasked, 19th century Bruce Wayne portrait. Batman takes to the gas lamp-lit skyline of Gotham using his Glider, which features hinged wings that can be spread or collapsed. Taking place in the 19th century, Gotham by Gaslight depicts Batman’s debut just as Jack the Ripper arrives in Gotham City.

You always have gorgeous books and the grading is always spot on.

Have you ever shown the contents of your mystery box? I'm assuming everyone had your donation at #1. I did.

Yes One:12 Collective and I ordered directly with Mezco. Almost a three year wait. Its still not in hand. Ridiculous wait time

Maybe someone could help me with this? If not it's a tale of buyer beware. I stupidly placed a pre order on the Mezco website for the Batman Collective Gotham by Gaslight way back in May 2021. Paid my $28.75 with the expectation that the figure would ship Jan - March 2022. That specific time frame was printed on the receipt as the ship by date. Fast Forward to October 26, 2023 and my account was charged $115.27 by Mezco. Forgot all about this purchase, it was so long ago. I didn't catch the charge on my account until December 6th, 2023 so I immediately called my bank to dispute it. Called Mezco too and they don't answer their 888 phone number on their website. I called today too no answer. I don't have the item and now I am out $145. The second charge should not have gone through as my card Mezco had on file expired 4/22. Really upset at Mezco and so far, my bank has not been much help. I won't buy a thing from Mezco again. How long is too long to wait for a pre order? It's almost 2 years past their ship by date.

per PM Thanks!

My raffle offering is a 9.8 CGC graded Cryptic Writings of Megadeth 1. Very cool cover celebrating a well-known metal band formed right here in Los Angeles, Ca by the legendary David Mustaine. US and Canada only.

Thanks Sledder responded. I'm just trying to figure out what to donate. Lunch first...

Is Sledder out of town? I sent a bunch of questions a couple of days ago with no response.

I think I need this one. Too cool to pass up

Got mine today. Wonderful wrapping job! Thank you secret board member Santa! I will share pictures when I open it!

Hmmm You cant buy and sell on eBay and expect it to be like dealing with a business. On top of it, eBay has terrible customer service. I've been on eBay since it started. Too many people think Amazon is the proper business model to follow: free shipping and free returns among other things. I very quietly remind buyers that is not part of my business model. On eBay you are dealing mostly with everyday people and the diversity is well beyond what you might think. I have sold on eBay to over 150 different countries all over the world (at last count). Thats a lot of different cultures and customs. My favorite part is selling to someone where the item originated. I've done it dozens of times down to the exact city state and country. I block people on eBay too but I reserve it for fools who intentionally break an item or return an item that was not in the original sale.

I had to look it up the last time I did business with Bird. Back in January 2020. He was good to me and KIND. I'm glad he's being remembered that way. I will pray for him.
