..by the way, sorry to hear you and our wife had to go through that b*llsh*t. What an utter waste of time! Exactly. Any comic dealers or exchange out there that do collect a penalty fee? I'm not aware. As a dealer, I require items be shipped in advance to avoid this sort of mess, but in the future, if I let them hold, then I'll be enforcing a penalty fee. Also perhaps worth noting, a similar situation happened to me about a year ago with Comic Connect / Metropolis Comics and as a result, I won't be doing business with them again. It was for an ASM #3 listed in their market or exchange section. Sent check, they cashed it. Dealt with a Jeff Maza who never responded to my request for tracking info over a two-week period. I reached out to Rob Reynolds who finally bore the news to me that the seller backed out. Within a couple days, I received my refund check. In my case, I didn't bother finding out who the seller was. Simply too time-consuming. But maybe I should have. I suspect it was as you mentioned, one of those IG sellers who made their way into Comic Connect. So I do believe this is a bigger problem in the industry and clearly not isolated to just Comic Link. And I think the consignee should be held fully accountable because they are providing the service. In my opinion, I have my doubts that they will ever effectively address the problem, either because A) it's too costly to change a broken process, B) requires a skill set that they do not possess in-house, C) a fear of losing consignors' business or D) all of the above.

I think the consequence should be more than just banning the seller. When the seller break a binding contract like this, they should be responsible for the 10% to CL. StockX does this.

Great pickup! Beat me (and I'm sure a few others) to it!

I didn't expect the Planet #71 to end so high. But then again, I have always thought it was undervalued.

I'll Take It

Sith Lord mind control worked...Take per PM.

Man I love Whitman covers!

Once Instagram introduces a built-in feature that converts 'claim' comments into orders, effectively automating the order fulfillment process (potentially using DM), WhatNot will go to the wayside and be forgotten. I'm guessing this is already in development.

Lol. I've checked up on that thread occasionally over the years. I guess I should qualify what I said...the videoing of oneself unboxing.

Please no offense to anyone, but this whole self-important act of cgc unboxing...does it really have to creep into the CGC boards now? I've had enough of it on Instagram already.

In all the years, this is probably the best Hulk #1 copy I've seen offered on the board. Wow.

Oops..I'll take this one too.

Got Crime and Punishment?

Whoa! A Zeck interior featuring Spidey and Moon Knight for under $4,600? What a bargain IMHO.

I totally understand your perspective - it makes absolutely no sense for GoCollect to continue supporting a public API that does not offer them a viable ROI. But on the flip-side, I think it was short-sighted for them to even provide an API (let alone to a single client) without a real long-term strategy around it. In my experience, both as a consumer and producer of public APIs (eg. developer.companyname.com), some valid business cases for one are to build brand awareness, foster a developer community with the intent of creating new business opportunities that API-provisioning company lacks resources for, and as the API matures, monetize access to the API. Why would GoCollect not have thought through their API strategy and risk credibility?

I bought a batman #47 from Jeff. Very smooth transaction. And I was very pleased with the care taken in packaging. Thanks Jeff!

Exactly! It's the intermediate cert that has expired. It impacts all browsers and devices. I see the error message appear on my Desktop Chrome. And to your point, much like many comic dealer's websites out there, the site was built and maintained long before responsive design or the use a robust and tried platform like Shopify where this type of issue is less likely to occur.
