battlerob Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I bought this from Ebay last year. It was sold to me as VG Raw, unrestored. I had it sent to CGC and it's coming back trimmed, restored 4.5. Oh well, can't win them all. I've gotten some really good stuff from ebay, but what can I say. At least it came back 4.5 because I would have really lost quite a bit of money if this would have came back lower as I originally thought, I was thinking 3.0 at best. It has really nice eye appeal but the inside was pretty bad. The front cover has 2 folds on it that go from top to bottom of the book, there was some pages folded inside as well.

Trimmed! Who was the seller? So other board members can steer clear? Seller on ebay was bid-now-to-win. Listing said X-MEN #1 (1963) FIRST APP OF XMEN-UNGRADED-UNRESTORED - NO RESERVE. I bought in july of last year. I still have some trouble checking for restoration on books, so when I received it, I couldnt really check or knew how to detect trimming. Plus, might have not been seller's fault, can't really know for sure if seller knew anything about it. Only went by feedback and looked ok besides it's more than likely to late to do anything about it. All I know is that I won't be buying from them anymore.

Erndog Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Yeah it's a toughie. Like you said, seller may have not known. Giving them the benefit of the doubt is (thumbs u of you. I would probably do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, that sucks Maybe the seller did not know if the book was trimmed, but it would still be good to know who it is just in case they did know.

I would probably do the same. Just from the EBay name of the seller.....I bet they knew of the resto. Bid now to win sounds like a scam in it self.
