I am just getting soooo tired of sketchy ebay sellers tryiing to pull one over on buyers.

 

1. guy uses cgc in the listing along with pgx

2. Guy has 5 pictures of the book but never shows either a pgx or cgc sticker/label (anyone who knows their stuff recognizes which one it is)

3. His entire description avoids mentioning if ifs CGC or PGX (its PGX)

4. He even avoids the PGX tag by just saying "professionally graded" in the ebay Item description categories...

I am all for optimizing your sales, but when you are actively trying to hoodwink a buyer by avoiding the "money shot" of the label, and not saying WHO the grader is...

 

:facepalm:

and he has a second book doing the same thing...

 

but then he lists a CGC-SS book w/o mentioning PGX and happily says CGC all over THAT listing...

 

I know honest sellers get screwed by dishonest buyers, but that doesn't make it right for sellers to be dishonest too (or which every way that chicken/egg argument goes)...

Pretty shadey in my opinion.

 

Hulk 181

 

I don't know how he got the price on the Hulk but he included photos of a Hulk 181 in 9.4. :screwy:

 

that listing killed some of my brain cells....

 

I think that's the general idea...

well he had at least one pic of a 9.0 in there. :insane:

 

looks like he updated the other listing to mention/show the PGX label.
