What part creams scam?

Its early and I haven't had my coffee. What am I missing

[Barth]

$3100 for a 3.5, GPA is at $11k

[Omegadepot]

i think its because of the fact its only 3100.00 might be a red flag...this is just my suggestion.

[Barth]

I emailed the seller seeing if I can take a look at it. We shall see

[budsbundy]

Did he email you back?

I don't see anything in the craigslist ad that says mail only

[Omegadepot]

that's one hell of a deal...unless the owner just doesn't care about the value or doesn't know the actual value of the comic.

[Bird]

he requested paypal payment as well in the etsy...strange for a scammer, no?

Email him back, and tell him your brother lives in Bradford, and ask if he can come look at it.

 

If it's mail only, it's a scam.

 

Not sure how he is working the paypal angle though, german newspaper with tracking?

[Barth]

Either someone bought it or it was removed from both sites. I asked for more pics and never received a response

[Miscellaneous]

It's gone.. I would have gladly bought it if it was a real deal. But that sounds too good to be true anyways.

Not Sure if this is the right spot for this, but maybe someone can tell me where I should post this. We were contacted thru our website (not by a boardie) about purchasing a low grade AF 15 From a Christpher Ott from Relics City, turns on that this is a scam, and we wanted to give everyone heads up.

"Relics city" sure is popular these days:

Another AF 15 from way below market value, using photos lifted from elsewhere, from a seller with no history of selling comics and very little activity over the past year:
