Got this email from gijoed:
After reading about the MIA X-Men 94 2X, I scanned some previous pages and noticed somebody inquiring about an X-Men 257 double cover, CGC 9.4 restored, offered on ebay. The same seller had an X-Men 199 double cover, and both are now sold.
It might be important to some people that this seller is Eric Birmingham, the guy who sold me "double cover" X-Men in March 2008 (they had married covers and big prices). You may remember that I emailed you about him and you, or someone, posted that email on the boards.
After my awful experiences with those transactions, I don't plan to bid on his items, no matter what ID he uses. He was selling back then as thanos*titans, and although kicked off ebay using that ID, he continues in business as subzerofz334.
Don't know if this is still listed in his Completed Items, but he recently offered an autographed comic with a Ceritificate of Authenticity. However the Ceritificate was something he had printed himself, with misspelled words, and signed himself! Now that is truly guaranteed authentic!
