Is it a comic or a product catalog? Comic. I had a German lady in a training course last week that confirmed not German, and also suspected Swedish.

Maybe in this day and age with Google, Google Translate etc. it is not that difficult to find out things like this... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would be interested to see what one would fetch. Graded or raw? I sold my raw 8.5 condition one a few months ago in the $500-600 range. A quick ebay sold search turns up a graded 5.5 for $412, and a 9.0 Signature Series for $1,274, both in April. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LCS has a good program where you get $10 cash back when you spend $100, so I used that and got the book for about $10 after discounts (very happy)! Still need #1, #2, #4, #12, but I'm getting there!

Turtle 9,109 posts Posted August 28, 2018 14 hours ago, TMNTDude said: Whoa!!! I've never seen that done before. Welcome to your first month on ebay! It really does happen ALL THE TIME, despite being against eBay's Terms of Service. It allows a seller to skirt the selling fees ebay charges even though they used eBay's infrastructure to connect to the buyer. The seller will often make some quick money doing this, but many buyers will block the seller moving forward as they don't want to play games eBay's system.
