Is it me or does this seem a little sketchy? Contact 12 on eeebay.

PLEASE NO TIME WASTERS, WE ONLY SELL AT THIS PRICE!!! PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT IF YOU DON'T WISH TO BUY!!! PLEASE CHECKOUT THE PICTURES AND CONTACT US!!!

WE ACCEPT FAST SALE FOR THIS ITEM AT THE PRICE OF: 6000 USD

And although they have it up for auction they say don't bid. All bids will be removed. But the account has been around since 2000 so I don't know what to think. 

Same book was for sale, sold, and feedback left by a legit seller in December and the current seller is even using the same pictures.  I wrote the previous seller already just to let them see.

I’ve reported this scam to eBay pretty much every day this week. They’ve been shut down several times and then pop up with a different seller’s account. Look at their other books… this guy knows what he’s doing.

Super stocked to get this LB Cole preliminary sketch. Such a great piece, reminds me of Suspense 3 cover. Added a black bar to cover up ‘naughty bits’ - don’t need anyone flagging this post, even though I think it’s probably allowed under board policy (gray zone).

Woah 

[LDarkseid1]

My only 3 L.B. covers.

[Tri-Color Brian]

I really like this Capt. Aero cover.  L.B.s airplane war covers don't get enough love...

The perspective on this cover is insane. One of his great covers that doesn't get the love it should.

That’s a perspective I can get behind 🙌

The promise version of this will be going up soon. Should be interesting to watch. The grade is insane! I think mine is maybe a 6.5-7.5.

Hi everyone,

just received my very first batch of books back from CGC. Among the books were my 14 LB Cole books.  My top 3 favourite are the last 3 books. With a honorable mention to Terrors of the Jungle #20.

Just wanted to share here.

Thanks!

Of these my favorite is that Blue Bolt #112.

I'm just starting to grade my books. With over 400 Cole books it will take a while but I'll get there eventually. These are the next 10, please forgive the 2 BA books.

[pmpknface]

Inspired by @lbcolefan I made a few quick purchases...

And this one I really wanted.  I recall this original art going for sale on comic connect years ago and tried my best to win it.  At least I have the book:

Another BB 105?! That's 4 in about 2 months.

And I'm pretty sure I've seen that particular copy before...
