I appreciate all the commentary. For me personally I’ll say that I’m aware that it’s only $15. I acknowledge that Unknown is within its legal rights to treat me this way, and I accept it. And I’m within my legal rights to not buy from them anymore, but instead buy from people who take better care of their customers, and to also let people who love comics as much as I do to watch out sh@$&y companies like Unknown. There are too many good sellers out there to choose to support a crappy one. Let me tell you about most if not all the people who frequent the boards and sell. This is where you get upstanding people who care about you and your purchases. I haven't bought a comic book from anywhere but here since I arrived here, and have been happier for it. Oh there are a few great sellers, but mostly Ebay is for suckers. sevans1979 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was money well spent. Over my life, I've been screwed over a few bucks but I've been fortunate to benefit on some items so I just chalk it up to an eventually wash. xoxo greggy Domo Arigato, Timmay, lizards2 and 4 others 1 2 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to sell for 12K , and now it's worth 50K . Talk about a teeth masher. 😬 Then again back in 1980's I bought an AF 15 for 500.00, now .....well . Even Steven.

When Batman: Son Of The Demon came out initially as a HC book, the clerk was so involved in a book he was reading he was visibly annoyed by my presence as a customer. I plunked the book down on the counter and asked for a backing board as well. He slid the hardcover into a bag first, then he grumbled all the way to the closet and came back with a backing board without even looking at me and slid that into the bag as well. "Ten cents", he said. I handed him a dime and he dropped it into the register, slammed it shut and threw himself back into his chair to read his book. I stood there and stared at him for a minute. He looked up at me: "WELL? NEED ANYTHING ELSE?" Nope. Not a damned thing. But I have also been burned as well both online and in person at point of sale, so it basically comes out even. oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several years ago I bought 8 copies of ASM 800 blanks. They sent me all 8 copies with terrible corner dings like F+ copy dings. For weeks/month they ignored my emails. I finally had to file claim on paypal. They answered the claim the last day telling me all the copies were damaged. So not only did they ship me damaged copies, but they knew they were damaged before they shipped them too me. They lost the appeal. I have never used them since. And of course you sent the damaged copies back to them. oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother came to the east coast and I never finished shopping for him. (Didn’t think he would show).
