He should had contacted you immediately that he would had disagreed with your grade but why he held up for one year. He should have take it for granted.

Hollywood1892 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I bought an X-Men 164 9.8 for $300 around the time Cap'n Marvel came out Thoroughly disgusted with the current financial state of the book and I'm wondering now if I should call the seller and ask him for $150 just to balance out the FMV of the book. Actually when Facebook went IPO and dropped $30 a share in a matter of months,buyers sued. Nowadays people are talking about buying stocks in books, who we gonna call when FMV of books go ghost? Surely not these guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_mkv Posted August 24, 2020 Author Share Posted August 24, 2020 Oh I probably should mention I bought this as a “VF” copy and at $400 I took a loss. I’d sold a bunch of other books and this was one of the last ones I cleared out. didn’t think having it graded would’ve netted much more so I sold it raw, as is. Next time 1) I’d get it graded and 2) will specify a return policy and 3) no more rebates after 12 months mec3437, Larryw7 and Hollywood1892 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with all said, I just wanted to add a fun fact about Heritage , they don't have limits on returns, if there is a legitimate claim. I think they know that a lot of people sit on their inventory (sometimes it is left there as well for quite some time). I was able to return something over a year later after a serious issue was discovered as I was preparing to send some books to cgc.

That's the thing...you saw damage on a raw book prior to submission and requested a return on an unchanged book which is totally different then this situation ...to me it sounds like the buyer submitted a book and didn't get the grade he wanted or expected and feels some how cheated or slighted and now wants his/her money back, which is different then your issue- I imagine Heritage didn't mention this issue prior to your purchase either The seller is not employed by CGC, so he should not be held accountable by CGCs grade Edited August 24, 2020 by Hollywood1892 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a golden age book that seemed tinkered with, where the pages were out of order, and a possibly married cover (since the cover looked waaay better than the inside of the book). Still not sure what to make of that book, but I didn't want to take a chance and they were fine with it. And you're right, it is a different situation, hence why I didn't want to detract from the conversation. It's just that some people were saying as a blanket statement that no one gives returns past a year and that's not entirely true.

littledoom Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 get what you get and don't throw a fit.. he's really squeezing every penny, nickel and dime..

Buzzetta Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Thirteen years ago, I sold a MOC Star Wars figure for around $300. Based on threads like this, I am praying that the bubble has yellowed and the buyer finds me to ask for a refund because the asking price for that piece is now between $1500 to $2000.

Most of those companies you mentioned have products, it's no doubt they have a return policy like they do, their products break down. It's not the same as buying a comic book and then disagreeing with a third part's opinion of the condition If you bought an item from IKEA and your buddy came over and in a drunken stupor broke it, should you be able to return it? I mean it's third party interference it makes total sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
