So what is one to do when they stumble upon a seller here that just doesn't know how to mail a comic book? Why would anyone think they could send "NM" comic books in plain old manila envelopes, no cardboard, no protection at all and have them arrive to the buyer without any damage? Shouldn't there be a feedback system here to protect other buyers from the clueless? .............Any thoughts?

I had a buyer tell me that's how he wanted me to ship a high grade comic to him to keep the postage cost down. In other words, he wouldn't pay for the adequate packaging. I chose not to sell the book.
This is why I no longer buy online.

I had a thread on the old forums with pics and step by step instructions on how to mail comics. I would also link to it from my ebay auctions and purchases.
As to the question posed in the o.p. I would P.M. the seller and ask for a refund or replacement. There isn't really a feedback system like ebay has for this site but good sales and happy customers are usually outspoken about pleasant transactions on the boards. not sure if there's a thread for that yet on the new boards.......

G'day Expander, What's happening sir?
Haven't heard from you in a while.
I'm heading to supernova in Sydney next month, Can't wait.
Well Howdy Sir! I've been super busy lately. Just poking around the threads to see if anything amazing has happened in my absence but..........nope.
I've been reading more of my comics lately as opposed to "expanding" my collection. i did have a blast at FCDB this year my 6 year old is a big spongebob fan so he was excited to see another FCBD spongebob issue he also loved the wonder woman one as well.

I remember in the early 2000's working 12hr shifts i would fall asleep on the couch while Spongebob was playing on TV.
Ren & Stimpy was the other cartoon i would fall asleep too ...One has strange dreams when it was playing Lol.
I have never been to a FCBD. live way to far away from any major LCS

I recently won a auction for a 12 books with $14.50 shipping and figured it would be in a priority box. Seller ships all books in a plastic shipping bag, no cardboard. Lucky this does happen often.
Midtown most times shipping is good. Mycomicshop I think packs books better then anyone.
