  1. I agree 100%. I’m going only by what OP has stated. No offense to OP, but there could be more to this story.
  2. With misrepresentation, the rules change completely. In your real estate scenario if there were any misrepresentation or fraud (ex. Seller states in writing that the boiler or oven is new when it isn’t, or seller states there are no known leaks but it’s later discovered seller patched up the ceiling to hide the leaks) then Buyer can sue and will win regardless of the window of time that passes. Seller is not saying, house “as is” and instead is stating the examples I gave. It changes everything. OP is a victim of misrepresentation here. Seller, in writing, stated the book had no missing pages. Further, when buyer notified the Seller of the missing centerfold, seller admitted that he negligently misrepresented that the book was complete. It was an honest mistake. I agree with many here that Buyer should have inspected the book. If Seller stated the book was complete when he sent it to the Buyer and Seller claimed it may have been CGC at fault, then Buyer would have been completely out of luck. Who is to say that CGC didn’t mangle the centerfold at that point? But Seller admitted to his misrepresentation. Changes everything. I believe buyer should get a FULL refund based on relying on that misrepresentation. CGC costs are on the buyer. No way seller should pay for that.
  3. I disagree. And so does the law. Otherwise we would live in a pretty messed up civilization.
  4. P.S. @O Doyle Rules if things don't work out your way, you can always ask Ebay to reconsider the 30 day guarantee in your case because you had to send the item to an impartial 3rd party (CGC) in order to see if the seller misrepresented the item. Also, throw in some language that you "relied on his promise" that the book was complete. Worth a shot.
  5. There is no way of knowing if Seller knowingly tried to pass off the book as complete so I am assuming the Seller made an honest mistake. However, Seller effectively admitted he didn't count the pages in the book and only assumed it was complete by offering to refund $ 100 to buyer. If Seller did indeed count the pages he would have told the Buyer to buzz off. Both buyer and Seller assumed the book was complete. Fair enough. We have all done it. Honest Seller Mistake, honest buyer mistake. No Biggie. But now that we know the book was missing the centerfold, the Seller should take the book back regardless of the Ebay 30 day policy. It clearly is the right thing to do. Buyer should also eat the $ lost on grading the book, and should also pay for return shipping. Right is right. Wrong is wrong. I don't blame the Buyer one bit here. He relied on the Seller's description. Seller made a mistake. Mistakes happen. How he handles his mistake separates a Good Dealer from an unscrupulous one.
  6. It will be at least 18 months for Superman Legacy tickets to go on pre-sale.
  7. Ask for full refund and return the book graded. Eat the grading costs and move on. Anything less than a full refund and make it your life’s mission to get him suspended from ebay, and ruin his name as a seller.
  8. Looks like Joker Folie a Deux will be the only theatrical release in 2024... am I missing something else?
  9. I also have FT Economy submissions held up in GEI in what seems to be forever. I wonder if they decided to catch up on all heir ME's in the Encapsulation room which also would explain the new bull#@$! ME policy. Who knows.
  10. I have an 8 book FT that sped through received and SFG and is in GEI for a little over a week now. Wondering if there is a backup at Encapsulation right now.
  11. Unfortunately they inherited a MESS. I would have liked some closure too. However how much more could we expect WB to keep beating a dead horse? How many more 100s of millions lost and continued damage to their most important and recognizable IPs can they take? How defeatist can some factions of the DC fandom be to want Gunn to fail? It’s nuts.
  12. it does make sense. So much sense that WB is staking unimaginable amounts of $ in Gunn’s vision and entrusting him with the biggest IP in the genre.
  13. Not equating Superman to GOTG or TSS. Not for a second. Just saying if he could do what he does with D list characters, he will ROCK this one. Time will tell. I’m hopeful.
  14. In all fairness Rocket Raccoon and Polka-Dot man don't sound like good ideas but Gunn pulled them off. I think he will be fine with Crypto.
  15. Wonder Woman 205 comments state “Origin of Nubia”. This is incorrect. Wonder Woman 206 is Nubia’s Origin (and the comments for 206 correctly note this). While “Who Is Nubia” is written on the cover of 205, the issue is not the origin issue.
  16. Or, just maybe..... it will be the best Superman movie we ever had and the highest grossing DC movie ever...... written by an incredibly talented writer whose humor goes way above most of our heads. After a decade of DCEU dysfunction, I am ALL IN with GUNN... or as Vigilante would say "hashtag me too". That’s just funny. In bad taste? Maybe. But still just a joke. Now that I got that off my chest, let the bashing continue.
  17. I will be happy with a confirmation that Shazam (the character) has a future at all on the big screen. If Shazam does have a place in Gunn's plans, better off not keeping Levi. He hammed up the role WAY too much. Billy was portrayed as an adventurous, rebellious teen .... that became a complete goofball as an adult Shazam.
  18. I happen to love this mythology. I still hope Gunn will do the character justice.
