lostboys Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Honestly, we comic book men are still a pretty honest bunch. There's a lot of wiggle room on Ebay to be extremely devious. Take sports cards collectors. They are some of the most cut throat and shady collectors out there. My buddy sells basketball cards. Multiple times he's been card swapped on Ebay. This is when you own, let's say, a LeBron James rookie card that has a few minor flaws. You go on Ebay and look for the same card in flawless condition. You buy the the flawless card. You get the flawless card. You file a NAD claim with Ebay. You send back your flawed card and keep the flawless card. Hopefully, comic book collectors don't ever sink to that level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just visualize one of em blowing his top because he got scammed on the same card he scammed someone on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of detailed pictures on there, my selling policies and the fact that I don't take offers. After this person buys it, he waits a little while and writes me that he just noticed an imperfection; the photo clearly showed this; it's a 9.6, not a 9.8. He asks me about it and I honestly reply that there is a small imperfection and that's the reason it's not 9.8. He writes me back and says he's a very particular collector, as most are he says, and there's no way he's going to pay $195.00 for it. However! However, he'll gladly take for $149.50. Yes. It just so happens he'll take for $149.50!! I wrote back I would just cancel it. It took me a minute or 2 to realize that this way some misguided attempt to get my comic for a lesser price since he figured, it's "sold." Then Ebay charges me .30 for the cancel! Ever have this happen to you? BTW, I put it back on and it sold in about 30 minutes. This happens very frequently. Happened last week on a $35 + shipping item in a Facebook group. (Not the GI Joe groups thankfully) They claimed it so I told others it was no longer available. As I am giving her and her fiance payment option they asked if I would do $30 + shipping. Said, 'no' and that they already claimed it. The couple / person responding said that they thought it was only worth $30. Then they said they couldn't afford it and would have to wait until next payday to pay the $35. I was a jerk Now I am keeping it. It was a message from the collecting gods. Screw this person and now no one gets it. Larryw7 and HotKey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
