Thread gets the award for most goalposts moved.

Poof, thread gone.

Without disclosure, it may be difficult to determine.  I will say there don't seem to be a lot of instances where someone doesn't get (or there are significant delays in getting) books they've bought on the Boards.

As noted above, this thread is a direct reaction to very recent postings in the Sales threads that did NOT include disclosure until posters dragged it out of the OP.

To be honest, who would buy any of those over-priced, over-graded books regardless of whether the seller had them in their possession?

How much less?

Is there a rule at all about what is PL worthy?

As an example I would imagine if a seller stipulated a fast payment (let's say 48 hrs) and a buyer insisted on taking 30 days to pay there would be a lot of support for that person to be placed on the PL list. 

There is.   I stand by my earlier post.  If you're going to have a rule about goods in hand, you should have a rule about funds in hand.  But frankly, both rules are tits on a bull.

Is what a rule? That a buyer can stipulate payments terms?

What I bolded of yours.  Is there a rule that says if seller stipulates payment window and buyer doesn't comply, then it is probation list worthy?  I looked and didn't find it.  There is a 30 day rule, but no exclusion for a shorter, stipulated period.

A seller can certainly add stipulations in their thread about when they expect payment. "I require payment in xx period of time". I would think a buyer not following that stipulation could be put on the probation list. 

Is that a rule? 

Shall we also have a rule that a buyer must have immediately available funds in hand?  Makes about as much sense.

ASM, not ams.  Just sayin.

Probably the best looking 5.0 copy on the market.  Dark green/Deep red

Ditto on that Avengers 57.  More like a 3.5 to 4.0 given all that is going on there

Not following the math.  But, congrats!

Is it one post per poster?

Used to stay there during Dead fall tour shows at MSG.  Always a good time.

I believe the page color is factored into the final grade, not just a notation.  So if you had 2 comics that were both 8.0 in appearance, but one was White and other Off White, the White page comic will be 8.0 and the Off White will grade lower.

The page color is published on the label next to the grade because no one can see the pages after the comic is sealed, and it may be very important to some people.

Definitely not true

This is one of many reasons why I closed my eBay account 18 months, and why I won’t ship outside the CONUS.  Sorry this happened to you Buzz. 

Buyer got refunded, Seller got paid.  Why would that be a reason to close?  Just wondering.

Sell it all.  If the collecting bug comes back, rinse and repeat.

How has this thread not been Kav'd yet?

Cool kids on comic book chat boards?   No offense, but that thought never entered my head.  Ever.  

She said, what's that?

Ah.  Your original post mentioned a few suggestions

My guess is it wasn't so much the request to pack securely, rather the suggestions of how to pack.

I just got a silly offer through HA for my Sgt. Fury 6.   Can't understand why.

Since when does the art forum require price?
