Mr. Hog

Amazing Spider-Man #601 CGC 9.8 @ $117 & 17 bids.

This just came out and there has been a lot of communication (emails and the like) going out about it:

Bought a bunch of DD and x-men books. The transaction was very smooth and he shipped right away. The packing was well done and everything came quickly and as described. Thanks again!

Purchased an Avengers 1 3.0. The shipping from Canada went very smoothly. He shipped the day the payment was made and his communication was terrific. Very much appreciate the effort in making sure the slab was well protected too. One of my new favorite books.

Thanks again!

Harsh... Yet I approve that message.

My ice cream man was giving away Bubble covers when you purchased a super sour gorilla pop. Super sour gorilla pops are the new new NWM. I would have bought one but I didn't know where to put the Bubble cover...

Seriously... What to do with those investments... I wish they came with pages made out of rolling papers and ink laden with THC... Though in reality, it would have just been cheaper to pour money into the real thing.

Good lord wth is this all about

Yup - last email I got from them... I was pretty happy about how it ended.

AND got the sweetest counterfeit IH 181 ever! I honestly will likely never throw it away as it is SOOO bad.

Ah, but a local news channel's "action team" needs none of those things.

I wonder if the one I contacted ever investigated the Neeleys?

 

 

-slym

 

Judging by what was dug up, I am sure that the Neeley's have been investigated for bigger things than comic book scams.

Speaking of them, got this in an email from the Neeleys the other day... 'You got my amazon closed so now I have no way for people to pay me.. Thanks alot..'

I think this is the best idea ever... Backing boards are my least favorite part of storing... I'm not as good at scanning as I would like so I'm always packing and unpacking... Even though Im super careful, not good on books.

Does anyone know what other GSX1s there are? I have a German version but that's all I could find.

My daughter calls the Incredible Hulk Mr. Hog... It stuck...

I'm telling you... Afro samurai type feature would be awesome...

OHHHHH. Man, once again I feel like a tool.

She said it was clearly a case of misrepresentation. The issue wasn't that the text was hidden in the copy - though there was clearly malice. The issue was the amount of copy that was dumped in to hide the text. No big surprise there. They said that they would submit a fraud report for the seller and would likely suspend his ability to sell. I don't know if anything more will be done.

I went to the higher level because I was running off some sale numbers for her to demonstrate how expensive this could get and that Elvishaha was bragging about the fraud online. Honestly, they care about their business but not much more so I don't know if anything more than the suspension of selling rights will come out of it. I didn't check, is the listing still up?.

I'm on with the 3rd ebay fraud investigator. You guys are fast.

What's he saying?

The correct response is, 'what are you saying?'

I was saying that I was on the phone trying to report this and passed from one person to the next in their fraud department. I didn't spam the fraud department, I was transferred up the line through various channels until I spoke with a 'higher up' that could ascertain how egregious this was. Because I explained to them how much this could potentially go for and had to walk they through how to get to the 'small type'.

SOOO.... WHAT IS THIS BOOK ABOUT??.?

I've read it a couple of times and I don't understand why the world is like it is or where this story is going. I love Saga, there are a lot of comparisons from a size/scope perspective.... And I can't see it. I need a EoW for dummies!

Too bad there isn't another con exclusive #1 limited to 500 to brag about...

Look at this guy heeding TBP's advice...

I'm on with the 3rd ebay fraud investigator. You guys are fast.

Honestly, saga is one of the very few moderns that I can't do without. Saga, thor... Hmm, I like others but for me it's saga and thor. My money generally goes elsewhere (which is humorous given other threads going on right now...)

I'm not but thanks. He's just not been around in a while. Thanks though.

Who is this e.s. you guys been talking about?

Such an awesome, awesome book!

Really happy with this one; just in today

 

That is a beauty! I begged, borrowed, and stole to get my copy and its only 5/8 as pretty.

I read about that toolbag in Canada.....insta-block!!!

 

I'm sure slabs get destroyed as well, but it takes a bit more impact and injury to accomplish that....it is a slab after all.

In all honesty: there are raws that are packaged so well that I'm afraid of damaging them while unpacking. They're layered in so much bubble wrap and tape that it takes a bomb squad and a surgeon to unearth it.

I've caught myself cursing at the parcel at times...ROFL! Well, I guess that's better than the polar opposite.....the comic hastily thrown into a manilla envelope with "do not bend" written on the package...

Do you recall his name?

Yeah, had a raw I paid $240 for sent to me that way. It,was In a ball by the time I got it.

I like the suggestion of a small run for 6 with an exclusive sketch cover on the board, how much to commission this I ask!? Brilliant.
