  Interesting read.  I've been collecting comics for over 30 years and still don't know how to grade properly.

Yes.

In a very short period of time here, you've demonstrated that you pull the trigger on auctions and seem to ask questions later while glossing over or outright ignoring good advice on here.  Given time, I think you can become very knowledgeable within this hobby.  However, your current buying practices lead me to believe you're not someone I wish to deal with.  Perhaps in the future, but not right now.

Yes, he's got so many that everybody has forgotten about all of them except for his casino one.  

Don't forget Trump branded Steak.

How you can fail at selling steak to one of the most obese countries in the world baffles me.

How you bankrupt a casino, in which the rules for all games are rigged in the casinos favor requires an actual attempt at failure.  (But I digress, this isn't the place for politics.)

Don't Worry about it ok? I am the perfect person to deal with I just Bought Another 3 Omnibus. I spend money wisely and want quality products because I also give quality items. I see nothing wrong in returning the comic. First time actually returning anything on ebay.

Why wont you give me your ebay username? so I will just avoid buying from you looks like your more about getting your money first and not making customers happy even if there is flaws in your product.

GIVE ME YOUR EBAY USERNAME TURTLE 100 % WON'T BUY FROM YOU WITH THAT TYPE OF BUSINESS ETHIC THEN YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT GETTNING MY EBAY ID

I Didn't Return ebay omnibus purchases I have purchased so far, so please I don't want to deal with you.

It isn't, lots of casino owners file for bankruptcy

Seems a little uncouth to just ask the OP for his eBay username. Obviously it’s only going to start an argument and the OP will want to defend himself. There’s a lot of sellers on eBay for the OP to choose from and most likely only a small chance for him to find you. Even by chance he does it might turn out to be a simple transaction and you wouldn’t know the difference.

The OP’s behavior originally did come off as irritating but I suspect he’s been schooled by the elders around here and can continue being a regular comic customer.

We have a years-long thread dedicated to describing stories about people we deal with on ebay where the transaction went south and someone exhibited behavior that would lead a buyer or a seller to not want to deal with a person.  Ebay ID's are asked for all the time there and no one bats an eye.  In this particular case, the individual is present to give the name instead of a 3rd party doing it.  Other than that, I don't really see the distinction. 

As for being "schooled by the elders", several here have given good advice that has all since been ignored.  This leads me to believe that nothing has really sunk in yet.

Understood, I meant no offense.

I didn't read the whole thread, but feel bad for the buyer who thinks this is a mint book....  I counted several defects on just on the FC where I'd have a hard time giving this a 9.0 let alone a 9.8.  
I think the best advice to the buyer would be to only buy graded books until they come up to speed on grading.

So you're saying he's not turtley enough for your turtle club?

If anyone cares to have the OP's Ebay usernames, send me a PM and I'll share them with you. 

I've blocked the OP on Ebay, but I'll be sure to keep an eye on his posts here.  If he does start to heed the good advice given to him, I'll be happy to unblock him.

I didn't get schooled but I did a learn a lot in the past few days and helpful insight and advice. You can have even have sour transactions with regular comic collectors so its nothing new.
