An inside joke for guys like you.  I try to be careful not to inject too much personality on ebay (an extreme case, but look at how far samco has gone off the rails with that). ; )

He reads them alright... I bought a book off this guy a while back ... once I realized who it was I returned the book ...

Wow, just came across this thread randomly.

To be fair to the seller, I bought a restored item from him on ebay fully aware it was restored (restoration described in the body of description, but not in the title), received it well-packed, later requested a refund within the return period, and he accepted the return and refunded my money when he received the returned book.  He never refused the return, and refunded in a timely manner.

Reading this thread though explains the... rather odd interaction I had with him.

[Dark Knight]

To his credit, he has been mentioning whether the book has been restored, trimmed, etc.  Not sure how credible his restoration check is on "unrestored" books he has listed, but even with the disclosure, I still wouldn't buy from him.  His name has been tainted for years as a seller and I would not change my mind about it.

Had a pretty high bid set up on a book of this seller on Gixen and with an hour left in the auction, I decided to google the ebay name and cgc to see what came up. Really glad I did and found this post. Bid cancelled. Thanks!

Placed a bid on a book on eBay, was denied.  Checked the seller and it was all_things_comics.  Never had any interaction with the dude as far as I can remember.

It's odd as I don't think I've ever given out my eBay username.

A 45 degree shifted double cover with a tripled fold? I've seen it all and I've never seen anything like this before. Has to be legit. Who would even think of doing it, let alone technically executing it convincingly. And it does look like it occurred at the time of production. This seller's restoration skills don't even nudge the meter up to a 1 on a 1-10 scale, he couldn't pull this off to look convincing even if he drew up a plan and practiced on dreck beforehand.

It's baffling how this guy has avoided negative feedback. I've purchased a few books from him and they all have had undisclosed issues. He think he's slick by using terms like "Near Perfect" or "Beautiful High Grade"....he gives buyers grades without giving them a grade.
