His Q&A answers seem like he knows our business a little, but the photo, and the overall format combined with the usual evasiveness screams 101% fraud in action (thumbs u

 

I thought the whole,

"This comic actually in 8.5 grade will go for over $750.000 usd, but it's not graded actually by CGC. I've received an offer for $22.000 for an ungraded comic but i'm thinking about it. probably if i don't receive a valid offer (about $130k) i will pull out the comic and i'll send it to the CGC to have it graded"

is a nice touch, and quite priceless.... as opposed to worthless, which we know is the real value of this auction.

scam? scam?...no way...this has to be 100% valid!...I mean, look at the great scan, and the great presention...and look at the great feedback ($4 magic cards)...nah, this has to be a real deal!...and a very nice person willing to sell a $750K comic for 22K... lol

check the old heritage file,and you will locate this nicely restored comic, with the slab "cropped" out of the ebay picture

From the auction listing: "an important auction society has contacted me to take the item for a private auction. Before this this they must verify the integrity and originality of the comics. I'm going to close the auction and going to England to the auction society to complete the transaction needed."
