  1. I recently had an issue and was wondering what everyone's thoughts are;

     

    I purchased 7 Darkhawk Comics #4-10 NM

     

    The comics arrived within 4 Days which was great, but Issue #4 was missing as they placed 2 Copies of Issue #6 in my order instead.

     

    I contacted them and advised them they made a mistake. They responded back quickly and advised me to destroy the 2nd Copy of Issue #6 and they will send me issue #4.

     

    I then receive another e-mail were they apologise and blame someone named Samantha for not paying attention to picking the comics properly.

     

    I allowed roughly 7 Days to go by. Please note they are located in the same City I live in. I recently went back to My e-mails via e-bay and cannot find the newest one were I offer them up to Wednesday August 10, 2016 to deliver the comic or I would leave a negative.

     

    Thursday August 11, 2016 I left a negative. Later that night the owner of the E-Bay Store contacted My personal residence and did not leave a message. Is this the norm these day's?

     

    I received a refund for the Issue #4. But, I wanted the comic as promised. Since then E-Bay has removed the negative, which I assume is because I was refunded. But, what is the point of having this kind of system if the buyer is not happy with the transaction?

     

    Thanks for letting me rant.

    It's probably because you threatened a negative if the item wasn't delivered by a certain date. Once you left the negative, and eBay saw that message, they removed it.

  2. Anyone ever have a buyer hit the BIN and pay for the item (I have BIN's set to auto payment required) and then immediately send a request to cancel? I have had this happen on auctions, but never a BIN...

     

    ...Never mind...0 Feedback bidder... Sigh...

     

    I had it happen on a Best Offer. I messaged the guy asking why he would make an offer and cancel after I accepted. His response was "I realized I could get it cheaper by downloading it on PlayStation." :facepalm:

  3. What are the advantages of using the "print label" option from ebay ... other than saving the 30 seconds it takes to write the address?

     

    Discounted shipping price, automatically loads tracking information.

     

    I can't prove it imerically, but I'm pretty sure when I switched to printing the shipping labels through eBay - as apposed to hand writing the address - my packages moved through the postal system a tad faster.

    I guess that makes it a no-brainer.

     

    Chalk me up as a "print label" user. (after I buy some more printer ink)

     

    Definitely less hassle and cheaper.

  4. Went to a couple shops in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area today. One shop didn't have it yet and the other only had one copy, which I immediately purchased.

     

    I'm torn about this series on the secondary market. I like it a lot and have a copy of #1 and now #2. But #2 is already $15 on eBay. I wonder if this series has potential to grow or if this will the ceiling while it's currently hot.

  5. Wanted to give this thread a little bump with a VERY odd experience I just had with Fedex. It isn't comic related, but still weird.

     

    I ordered a home security system a week ago, and after installation, I decided I needed a glass break window sensor. I placed the order this past weekend, and the sensors were shipped via Fedex 2-day delivery. My package arrived today. I opened it up, and inside...six urine drug samples from a toxicology lab in Louisiana. It had the patients' info, SSN, drug results, etc. CRAZY!

     

    The weirdest part is that the tracking number on the package is the tracking number for my security system. I called Fedex and the first woman understood the situation and was talking about how odd it was, she had never seen this happen, etc. She had to put me in touch with another department of Fedex. I explained the same thing to a different woman and she said someone would be by tomorrow to pick up the wrong delivery. After that, she was trying to hang up, but I told her I still needed the package I ordered. She asked for tracking, and I told her it was the tracking number of the urine samples. lol

     

    Then I had to wait while she looked up the shipment. Her reply was, "Your package was delivered at 6:04 P.M. You might want to ask your neighbors if they saw a package since you're claiming you don't have it." I then told her the "package" was the urine samples and that my original package would keep showing up delivered because it was the same tracking number. She still didn't seem to understand and ended up telling me she would have to check with the shipping department and get back with me. Thankfully, the security company is sending me a replacement free of charge. There's no telling where my original order is right now. And to make it even weirder, the complete tracking info from Fedex is the correct route from the security company in Virginia to my home in NC, so I'm not sure how I got a package from Louisiana with the exact same tracking.

     

    So all that to say, anymore news about the missing page? :wishluck:

  6. He is not the brightest bulb on the planet is he?

    Say... my... name....

    You're goddamned right.

     

    Haha nice Breaking Bad reference.

     

    Blocked the new name too.

  7. There is a guy on Facebook that posted a video to YouTube about a ebay seller. On the listing it shows a 5 day handing time, it just hit day 5 today and he's already filed a claim and posted a video. I'm adding him to my blocked buyers list.

    YouTube video =

     

     

     

    Damn. What a psycho buyer! :insane:

     

    He B-Locked!

     

     

    X 1,000,000

     

    Seriously, who has time to do this mess? If he has time to do that he is probably just waiting and sitting there counting down the milliseconds for his precious book to ship...

     

    The seller should have communicated something (or maybe there is a reason) but this guy is the epitome of self-entitled nerd.

     

    Communication is always key, but since the seller had the handling time switched to five days, he might've been somewhere that didn't allow him to check e-mails or get online. Since I don't have a store, I changed the handling time on my items when I went on vacation in the mountains. We had a cabin with "wi-fi," but we never could get online. So there could be reasons he wasn't able to respond to the buyer.

  8. I didn't realize what this was until I researched it, but there were only 25 of these made and one sold in 2014 for $250.

    That was a helluva find, but I question the claim there's only 25 of these out there? I've owned two at the same time not that long ago; still very, very rare and hard-to-find.

     

    Did you read the article? It said the first 25 winners received the silver foil. And then a little further down, it reads "It has been suggested that more that 25 of the silver foil variants may have been produced but, whilst this is certainly possible, there is no direct evidence of this."

     

    Well, how can you prove there's more without having seeing >25 at once, or having someone directly involved in the manufacturing chime in? Anyways, my point is, compared to other items of apparent rarity of 25 or less, they seem to pop-up much more frequently. Again, I've owned two at the same time, purchased from different venues at different times - just anecdotally opinion.

     

    I see what you're saying. I just posted to clarify that the article didn't state the 25 produced as fact. They admitted it's possible there were more manufactured.
