sufunk Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Whats the deal here? thats a MONSTER book for a 10 feedback seller to be selling but seemingly looks legit no? http://www.ebay.com/itm/330788603459?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_500wt_1413 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any idea who it is that owns the 8.0 Northland copy? The verify CGC cert function doesnt seem to be working for me so i cant check the cert # right now.

Dark Knight Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) Yikes seller from another country... It's a big gamble that's for sure.. BTW, something's fishy about the CGC serial number on the Hulk #1 Looks artificial Edited September 5, 2012 by Dark Knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, something's fishy about the CGC serial number on the Hulk #1 Looks artificial it does look weird! The cert search works now and this is what it says Certification Information Certification #: 0197801002 Title: Incredible Hulk Issue: 1 Issue Date: 5/62 Issue Year: 1962 Publisher: Marvel Comics Grade: 8.0 Page Quality: OFF-WHITE TO WHITE Grade Date: 08/13/2012 Category: Universal Art Comments: Stan Lee story Jack Kirby and Paul Reinman art Jack Kirby and George Roussos cover Key Comments: Origin and 1st appearance of the Incredible Hulk. 1st appearance of Rick Jones Betty Ross and General Ross. Census: See Census Info Notice, there is no pedigree designation there. I have quite a few Pedigrees and from what i can tell, EVERY single one of my few hundred Pedigrees say the Pedigree when you look up the cert # Something definitely fishy here. can the board detectives get on this case please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Yep it should say the pedigree name as well if the book is indeed a pedigree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm, i didnt remember David having a Pedigree copy. I guess there goes the sellers story that he bought it a few years ago at SDCC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 the ebay picture used is a picture of the book, not the actual book... scammer printed out a color picture of the book and put that post it note beside it...you can tell from the pixel resolution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Loves Gwen Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Interesting, you guys are good. How can the seller have bought those in 2008 if the Hulk was just graded last month, and the AF 15 was just sold on HA this Spring? That is my old AF 15 that I had graded in October 2010, and sold last Spring here to Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the auctions can be taken down somehow.. Would suck if the winning bidders paid and not receive the actual book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChicksCosmiComics Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Damn the CGC detective squad on the case. You guys don't miss much..I was thinking he photoshopped the pic ...But then I looked at the AF 15 and the pic has what looks like a kitchen cabinet in the pic. Through me for a loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gort666 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 If you need another indication this can only be a scam: The book is located in Germany. The seller is willing to ship all around the world... but NOT to Germany;-) I am located in Germany and that's what I read when I look at the auction: "Not Available to Germany" Ha, ha.... Take him down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magneto Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) Hey everyone, I just wanted to show off my ticket to the club!
