"This is from the Marvel Comics / Golden Records comic series published in 1966. This auction is just for the comic, not the record."

 

I don't think the seller is being dishonest in this one.

He mentions 1966/reprint/record at least 3 times (once in the subtitle).

 

Dumb bidders here...?

That's exactly what I was getting at. If someone is going to bid big bucks, you think they would pay better attention to the description.

You're assuming newbie speculators actually know about comics?

 

This one will likely go "into the vault", as the buyer rubs his hands together greedily, thinking of the immense profilts he will take...

Doubtful, the same thing happened when I bought a copy of this GRR Avengers 4 book. At the end however, people realized it was GRR and withdrew their bids.. leaving me with the book at about 75 dollars

"fleecing the Newbie" is in full effect

Definately seems to be a sellers market at the moment.

Well, looking at the buyer, he just joined ebay a couple of months ago, and bought mostly mid-grade Dells (nothing serious), but has bought a couple of CGC books (one early Batman (CGC 5.0) mid-grade, and an 8.0 ASM #38), so the buyer should be experienced enough to know what he's doing. And, the seller's description was in no way vague about it - it's clearly noted in the first sentence, not bolded and underlined, but the info is there. And it took at least one other bidder to get the bid up that high. But you're right, it's way to much for the reprint..
