Sparkle City has a tendency to overgrade so I stopped bidding on their books. Raze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He mentioned in the listing that there was a tear on the last story page, which was fine with me. Turns out there was a big chunk of the last page missing which affected the story. I messaged him asking why did he list it as a tear instead of a piece missing and he said a tear means the same exact thing. Never forget the guy that listed a coverless GA book as "Mint" When questioned he angrily asserted that "The part of the book that's there is MINT!"

djzombi Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 I recently bought a GA book described as having a detached cover. The price was right, so I snatched it. When it arrived, the cover was split in half (as well as detached from the rest of the book, naturally). That is to say, completely split at the spine, separating the front and back covers. The original photos of the book were such as to make it appear the covers were attached. When I contacted the seller, they said that's what "detached" meant - that the front and back covers were detached from each other Thankfully the seller made up for it by offering me a fairly good deal on another book they had for sale.
