OdinsSecrets Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I know there have been some threads about the seller all_things_comics on here before, but just wanted to let people know about this auction (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Daredevil-7-Vol-1-Near-Perfect-High-Grade-Classic-Subby-vs-DD-1st-Red-Costume/401435039019?hash=item5d7764952b:g:6j0AAOSwIJlZ-4Pk) in case. The seller all_things_comics purchased a copy of Daredevil 7 from me in a restored label about a month ago (https://www.ebay.com/itm/253220040888?ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1561.l2649) before I knew about his history of scamming. Now he has put up a listing of Daredevil 7 which I am 99% sure is the same book with a press and some color touch added. In the description there is a mention of the color touch, but nothing about trimming, which is what the original restoration on the book was.

01TheDude Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 my bad-- I clicked on the link before reading to the end of your comments. Full disclosure would include a picture of the old label, along with talking about the book being cracked out to be pressed (and the trimming of course). I can see how this is shady behavior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grebal Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Last we he sold an ASM 50 (one of his specialties apparently) at $427 for the copy that he bought from me two months earlier for 160. After the cost of the restoration he does ok. Suckers and restoration-friendly-collectors buy his stuff and his high-count feedback is 'flawless'. I blocked him from my listings (not that I have much else for his ilk) because I think he's the second worst kind of sleazebucket (the first obviously the outright thief, is worse than the trickster). His sale as "super high grade" Mine sold in Sept as a low VG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unreal. Suckers is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaard Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 A book that's been trimmed cannot be 100% complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
