Larryw7 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 I got a raw X-Men 1 in a trade with another collector. He said he purchased the book raw, and the dealer told him it was unrestored. The first scan is what he sent me. After the first excitement of getting an X-Men 1, I started to wonder if I could check out eBay's advanced search to see where he might have gotten the book. I looked closely at the following scans, and I was aghast when I studied them closely. I'm not 100 percent sure, but I have a feeling I was taken for a ride. What do you folks think?

Myowncollector Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Every defect is exactly the same. If you aren't 100% sure I hope seeing all the same replies on here you will be 99.9999999 % sure. I like the positive thinking but its the same book. Hollywood1892, Larryw7 and The Lions Den 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatterEaterLad Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Same book. Sorry that happened to you. Knowingly breaking out a purple book and then selling it as raw is indefensible.

He was.very evasive in an email I received this morning, and also defensive. After pointing out his lies, he said the trimmed book "presented the best out of many other copies(!)
