    Collectors Summit is a premium, focused event for collectors looking to network & conduct business with established members of the community. We focus on Golden Age to Bronze Age Comic Books, Pulp Magazines, Original Artwork and other growing markets within the collectibles community. We cut away all the distractions of traditional conventions to provide the best experience possible for serious collectors and investors..

    At a time of exponential changes & growth within the collectibles market, we want to provide an opportunity for trusted & valued members of the community to gather, network & have fun! We strive to be an inclusive community by encouraging all attendees to be involved in the marketplace at the event, not just the dealers. Bring a box or two of items you wish to sell or trade as there will be space for you to set up your own pop-up shop. We look forward to bringing you an event that the collectibles community deserves and all the relationships that come along with it!

    ----I am not as up on board rules as others...But what rules apply  when a seller has an un-allowed listing in the form of a mystery box, and a potential buyer knows such listing is not allowed but proceeds to privately negotiate and actually buys said un-allowed listing before said items can be publicly posted for all board watchers to pursue???...I know buyer says the seller edited her post after it was  brought up that mystery boxes aren't allowed, but I was following said thread from the start, and the initial post stated thread would consist of small lots (similar to her thread of a week or two prior), but it would be a few hours for a sports practice to end before proceeding...Seller then put a price on a picture of a box of comics with very few being seen in detail......I am not saying there wasn't a miss-understanding of some sort between buyer and seller--I just think it was way too soon to publicly trash a seller over said problem..This holds especially true when the buyer actually initiated said negotiation for such un-allowed transaction (note buyer absolves newer seller for not knowing rules on mystery box), but how do we absolve the buyer for participating in said un-allowed transaction??....I know most will as buyer seems to be well known and liked......I am glad the matter seems resolved, as I do not think the seller is dishonest based on my limited dealings with them...


    The seller was wrong for the way the transaction was handled between him/her and the buyer...that does not necessarily make him/her dishonest
    I can appreciate that your dealings with the seller went well and without incidence but that is irrelevant to this specific transaction.

    I wasn't mad before....but now I'm really pi**ed off.

    I spent 20 minutes typing a magnificent and razor sharp reply on my stupid tablet.....submitted it......saw that the matter had already been resolved....and then had to delete it.

    So.....who's going to reimburse me for my time now?

    And if anyone says.....sorry, no returns.......I will seriously lose my sh*t on the whole lot of you.

    Matt, I’ve tried to work with you on this. I do not believe it was unreasonable for me to ask you cover shipping charges on a sale that has a no return policy. I believe we both have some fault in this sale. I lost money from PayPal fees and shipping supplies and more importantly it took a significant amount of time to get you packed up and shipped out. So asking for some assistance on the shipping did not seem reasonable, especially on a sale that had a no return policy. 

    Unfortunately, you have kind of screwed me by making this public. We should have kept this matter private a bit longer. With that said, the damages of you making this public have already been done and until you are able to rectify making this public I will need to stay firm on my most recent return decision. 

    I do hope/believe we can find a way past all this and look forward to hopefully moving in that direction. 

    Thanks. 

    a no return policy does not absolve you from misrepresenting or changing the condition of a sale. Argument is weak.

    Based on your first reply to this matter, this will not bode well for you in the end.
