You should have switched the text around... it would have fit the meme better.

My personal favorite this year is a buyer that asked me if the comic had been read. Let that sink in for awhile.

 

People want their comics as 'minty' as possible. I actually say in my auctions, if the comic has never been read, then I put in the description "Comic is new and never been read, bagged & boarded as soon as I bought it."

I remember someone saying an old lady came in for one of the hot speculation comics, I think Superman 75, and insisted on one that had never been touched by human hands. The store owner had to explain that those don't actually exist but he can help her find a nice one.

Is there a list for bad eBay'ers? Like the Probation and HOS threads?

I wonder what would happen if one used the search feature, posing this query?

Holy Hannah in a handbasket, I tried using the forum's search feature just using eBay in the title only, max time limits, and it gave me 2 pages of results, only going back to last month.

 

CGC - please fix your stupid search function!!! It is horrible!

Right?

tech - oh, it's hysterical. for sure.

 

I'm fine with the neg. If it means other buyers like her don't want to buy from me, that's totally a positive.

 

slym - called already, they wouldn't take it off. don't really care enough to try again, mainly for the reason above.

 

eBay sucks so bad. And is so lazy. No reason not to remove this neg.

So it was you I really wondered that.

 

So if you bought it at a LCS. Do you ask the owner if it has been read when you are buying it? Better yet when you buy from DCBS or another online retailer do you ask them if the guy that packed it up read any of the books.

 

You missed the point here. In a lot of cases you just don't know.

 

 

[slym2none]

WHy would I ask that? I am not concerned. But I do take it that books I buy have never been read, as in all the way through. They may have been picked up, thumbed past, and obviously they have been touched by human hands (I buy all books from a LCS) but I am pretty sure they have never been read.

 

Also, I didn't miss the point, I gave my opinion on why someone might ask "Has this been read yet," and I think it's a valid one.
