Detective 40 Scam on eBay

I was looking at the listings on eBay, when I came across a nice looking Detective 40. As I studied the photos, I realized this was my old copy. When I read the description, it says "unsure about restoration". I went back and saw I sold the seller the book on eBay last year. I clearly said it was restored, and pointed out as much as I could discern. I can't believe he forgot about that, especially since we had several PM's back and forth. So avoid this auction, and maybe we can get it shut down.

Nice detective work. and thanks for bring it up. 

Cool stuff.  

Just found 2 KnightsEnd pages.  

Cool piece.    Always fun to see some Batman action.

This variant craze is causing some madness

Today I become a man (or true loser depending on your perspective).  For my 10,000 post I decided to re-post my Batman 1.  Batman has always been my favorite superhero and this is definitely my favorite book in my collection.  I have been on the boards for 13 years and sadly only one of my post have had any value (back when I hit 8,000 post I said two had value but checking again, one really didn't have any value).  This is a great place to learn and share as well as watch some of the drama unfold.

Thanks for sharing that pic again.   Epic cover/post for the milestone. 

Definitely a talented guy to keep your eye on.  Glad to have picked up this beauty.

A good way to join the club. 

Stop checking this thread for a few and look at what I miss.   So much Spidey goodness.  

Still an awesome book to have. Hope it goes to a good home.

It's remarkable how fresh much of GA OA appears... pieces from the 40s/50s with bold lines on thick paper looking like they could've been drawn last week. 

I was thinking the same thing.   Such bold strokes

This thread dropped all the way to page 9. Can't have that.

Look at those colors

I totally agree about the coolness factor. And yes, its not a first appearance, but it is the very first issue of the most amazing (pun intended) series ever and just the second appearance of Spidey. And yes, they do look awesome as a pair! 

 

Awesome combo.

I'm in!  Not a fan of the pencil, but the price was right.

Pencil or not it's still a great acquisition.  

I never get tired looking at this cover 

Pretty good collection you got there...
