Laughter: The best medicine

[valiantman]

You know, I've spent several years online trying to "educate"

the Valiant fan, Valiant critic, and Valiant curious.

 

There may be no cure for the Ebay seller, though...

 

All that's left to do is just sit back and laugh.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you...THIS!

 

Why is this funny?

Oh, let me count the ways...

 

1) Title: CGC 9.0 POTENTIAL

Really? You think? The POTENTIAL to get the lowest CGC grade ever? WOW!

 

2) Description: "Better than putting money in the bank"

Well... maybe not "better", but it at least the same as flushing it down a toilet.

 

3) Starting Price: $10.00

Mile High asks $2 for theirs, Ebay usually sells for $4.50 with shipping... $10.00? Nice.

Also note: The seller paid $0.55 to list this book for $10.00.

They would have paid $0.30 to list the book for $9.99.

 

4) Shipping: $9.00

I hear those gold-lined padded envelopes are really getting expensive.

 

Don't feel left out, though...

He's got a few Marvel, DC, and Image books that will also satisfy your appetite

for non-CGC-graded overpriced commons with POTENTIAL better than banking cash.

..and with years (err... days) of experience selling comics, clothing, shoes and handbags...

You just know you're getting the deal of the year!

This seller is even worse than Fred Karger!
