Is e-bayer "actionnate" on the boards?

[esquirecomics]

Anyone know this person? I did notice that he/she has dealt with people I know.

 

[Dad&Son-migration]

If they were on the boards, you probably frightened them away now!!

[esquirecomics]

Just thinking on bidding on an auction!

[SuperBird]

don''t. really.

Grades 'fair' books as Fine or better.

Does not disclose restoration.

Does not disclose major hidden defects.

Apparently also posts images of books they do not even own, then pulls down said auctions when they are exposed on this forum.

nice! God I love these boards! With scammers just infesting every corner of our beloved comic world, we need to look out for each other. JMHO....

isn't this the same guy who was peddling that Action 7...without disclosing it had about 1/2 the front cover replaced?? That is, assuming he even had the book to begin with? Mark, I'd be VERY careful!

[SuperBird]

Yes, that is the guy. I gave him the benefit of the doubt when I bought from him, but I have since followed his other auctions, and he is definitely a scam artist.

[esquirecomics]

Thanks guys! No bidding from me!

That is what I was looking at.

Those are not great scans, you would figure for a book like that you would have better scans

One of the distinguishing characteristics of a possible scam. Go buy a $200 scanner!

Imagine how much money board members save on phony auctions by looking ouch for eachother. If the hobby in general lacks ethics, i would say that the people on this board compensates quite well with honesty and genuine love for the comics and not the money... kudos to everyone (yes im on my second bottle of red wine) buuuuut im in Paris so its ok.....

 

If you have questionnable books you want rid of, now is the time to PM me...

[SuperBird]

the books he owned he was taking pictures of. The true BS aauctions were ones where he was swiping internet scans- which seems the case with this one...

 

I'm just pissed at myself for not negging the guy. Guess I was happy to only be out shipping and paypal charges... (I returned the book)

[Point Five]

I can't believe anyone will bid on this More Fun #73, even if they don't know that the seller is problematic. The picture actually looks like a scan of a color xerox! ...or of some other kind of reproduction. Maybe he's trying to do a bait-&-switch with a lower-grade copy of the book.
