  1. Your offer could have been FMV, but Maybe your offer was so far off from the seller's asking price , that from his perspective it did not merit a counter offer.
  2. What is is that someone paid $800 for an item that is at the very least $20K simply because the seller did not do its due diligence.
  3. As far as I know there was nothing nefarious about the transaction. But there are bad optics here.
  4. It sucks, but that someone should have been more cautious after making the purchase. I learned about this purchase a few days ago, and Im not one to keep one's ear to the ground in regards to the transactions that take place in the OA world. I don’t know the buyer, and I dont know the seller, but I guarantee the buyer knew immediately what he got away with. Hence, don’t tell a soul. But since he did, and now everybody knows, a rectification should be made, or Swamp Thing #37 will forever be known as the one that was stole from grandmas’ drawer. IMHO…Put it up for auction…split the profits…and move away from the stink. I think both parties will mutually gain.
  5. I would have done the same, but since the cat is out of the bag, I would put it up for auction and split the profits with the seller.
  6. Very pleased with my New Pick Up. David Lloyd - V for Vendetta First Appearance
  7. Why? Buy your comics and move on. Life is short to be concerned with such petty things. Hopefully you have better things to do. And also, It seems most OA collectors are "underfinanced chumps" in this current Market.
  8. I personally love this thread. If a collector finds a bargain, and flips it for profit... I call that a happy ending. And it reminds me that I need to sharper and smarter with my purchases.
  9. Sal Buscema Captain America #137 ...$96K ....Jeeezus!!!!
  10. It wasn't a bad outcome at the end. Agreed to Purchased 3 pieces at a discount. Capullo X Force, Denys Cowan Tec 600 unpublished cover and Ian Churchill Cable Cover.
  11. Any thoughts on the Chris Ware Jimmy Corrigan? Not his usual style depicting Jimmy, but it Seems quite low.
  12. Interior vintage pages are going for around $15K....so yes, steal.
