Sold a comic for $100. Buyer relists for $100K! 2 2

[littledoom]

Does anyone know about this? Seems like he’s the only guy invested in it lol. I sold this comic in a #1-4 set for $100 back in September 2018. Probably worth double that now. To me this is merely miswrap. And it’s not even a newsstand edition or double cover lol.

Was the listing done by Thor? 'It's thy comic, oh gentle beast of the night, speaketh freely and enchant me...'.

I'd say the only regret here is that this fool would have obviously paid you more than he did for it. After all, it's a oNe Of A kInD.

Initially I had the series set listed for $80 and then he messaged me multiple times telling me about the line on the back and said I could raise the price to $100 and he'd pay that. And he did

At least he's an honest weirdo, I'll give him that.

Either that, or he’s a very old pensioner from northern England.

Just a miscut.  Seen loads of them.

I don't see the line, unless he means the other righthand side.

Wait, he looked over a decade for something he didn't know existed?

sellers list ridiculous priced things like this just to grab the top spot on eBay ...and then they hope you will check out their other listings...

just like back in the phone books days people would change their last name to Zzyntoman so they could have the status symbol of having the last name listed in the New York city phone book

Yes.

And they’d also self-publish a Zzzyntoman comic book so they could be the last item listed in the Overstreet Guide.

Some are that insecure.

I guess it's no stranger than Dave Sim naming his company Aadvark so he got the first listing in distributors' listings.
