I'm surprised at the amount of people who do actually collect comics (like the winning bidder likely is) that are taken advantage of just like this idiot buyer was. Being a comic book collector doesn't make you automatically knowledgeable of the hobby.

No but it should. If you are ignorant about what you collect then you will get taken advantage of and it will be no one's fault but your own. Imagine paying 2 million for a three year old's drawing you thought was a Van Gogh?
Where does he get those wonderful toys!
I have yet begun to surrender.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. My 3 yr old daughter's got talent! AND she's still got both ears...

I was thinking about it last night and thinking about it again...At first I clicked on the auction without reading what was posted on the forum..I obviously knew something was up with the comic but I couldn't see what it was....I'd never bid on a comic like this without asking here or I'd done my solid homework...Taking a risk on some auction that has a crappy scan and doesn't even offer that much information is already two big alerts in my mind.
I'm not a n00b to comics but I don't know enough about supermen comics to even wanna sink that type of money into a book without asking people with better knowlege and you gotta wonder if the winner bidder asked or did their own research or was truely silly?

I emailed the fellow too. Tried to be nice about it, but told him it looked really fishy & he should get some sort of very strong proof that it's real (which it just isn't, it can't be).
