I still get these emails.

He has a "Rabbi Pedigree" for sale.

This time I caved in and had to look.

The strain was more than I could bear.

 

I've never seen so many "Mint" books in a single collection.

Of course...all the keys seem to be missing from the lists.

 

Is there a way to make him stop sending me these emails?

If you've asked him to stop and he continues to send you email you can start reporting him to people- his ISP/ eBay.

Spam him with EMAILs of every single thread on the forums?

My co-worker combated fax spamming by sending a continuous fax to this company overnight and used up all their paper!

I had to see what one of their "mint" comics looked like. Here is the one I chose:

 

 

This book was graded "Mint" by them. Does anyone see the main problem with this cover ?

[DiceX]

Was that from the "Rabbi Pedigree"?

I saw that issue was sold already.

Hmmm.... I wonder what this book what actually grade at if sent to CGC. I'm gonna say 8.5

Any other guesses?

You look into getting a refund on that MINT book with the VF top edge? I mean, its mostly mint right?

If you trim 1/8" off the top, it might look alright.

Isn't Marvel chipping allowed even in hi grades?

Exactly.

 

 

Now it's Mint By God...

Is that true ? How do they handle miscutting. This seems pretty severe.

 

I missed their cutoff for returns because I was away on business. Curiosity killed the cat.

[DKB]

I inquired about a slew of the more obscure Marvel books with the intent of getting at least 25% off and sending back anything that didn't grade out exactly as they claimed. Seems as if large volume discounts aren't really available via the "Rabbi" pedigree because they've been "selling so well".

 

My one experience with them on eBay was a F Silver Age DD (# 40 something) that was advertised as a "NM-?". I love it when a seller put a question mark with the grade. I figured it worth a shot at a $13 BIN. Huge tear/ship out of the back cover and the book was brittle as could be. They did refund half the cost. Thats all I typically ask for because shipping it back is more of a pain than the $13 it cost me.

[Murph]

I bought about 7 books from him once after hitting the BIN on a "MT+" ASM 121. He had good feedback (which is beyond me why insufficiently_thoughtful_persons leave good feedback on a guy who grossly overgrades), so I gave him a shot. All the books I bought were NM+ and up according to him. When I received them, the closest one was a VF+. I was glad I'd negotiated with him for the "option" to return the books otherwise I would've been screwed. But he is a fairly friendly guy, and I'm guessing he just doesn't really know what he's doing and tossing numbers out there.

Ya, he does seem to be a nice guy, when I complained about the grade he was pretty willing to do whatever I was willing to suggest.

[DKB]

Looks like this seller went to the same "Hey, forget the top and bottom AND left edges and these books look great" school as Kermit did.

P.S. We have recently implemented a second pre-shipment inspection to our process to make sure no NM/MT books go out as MT. Additionally, we offer a full refund plus return shipping costs if you are not 100% satisfied.
