I wish I could unsee all of this.

If you didn't want comments and feedback from the random masses, maybe you should have taken a hot second to think about things before you posted on a public forum.

You basically staked a sign in your front yard with your phone number and a message saying "don't call me".

Taskmaster,


People like you are one reason I do not sell online.

The deals you want to get are the ones you are running off.



If a comic is going for $100 and I only have $3 invested in it, I've been known to sell things like that for $50 to cut someone a deal.

I can assure you that your price would be $200.
I have zero patience for people who make an offer and don't follow through. Zero.

Our Policy
1. Offers do not have to be accepted by the seller whether you like the price or not.
2. If a buyer makes an offer AND it's accepted that is the agreed-upon price. It is not a negotiating platform for a lower price
3. If a buyer makes an offer and doesn't hear anything, please let me know. I will check their most recent login and contact them. We want seller to respond even if the answer is no thank you.
4. We are thinking about adding a block feature for paid members. This would block another member from messaging them or seeing their books. I've spoken to our programmer about it and he assures me, it's possible.
5. The sale is ultimately between the buyer and seller, it's just our platform that connects you.
6. Paypal is recommended to protect both parties involved unless you know and trust the other person.


Laughing at all these comments but stating just the facts,
Ron

If a comic is listed at a price and an offer is received at that price the Seller DOES NOT have to accept it, seems Taskmaster is expecting this to happen. Many things could influence this, what if a comic was listed years ago and has become hot and the value soars, is the expectation that a seller has tabs on their full inventory and adjust prices in a heartbeat??! To offer a stupidly over the odds amount to get it accepted and to then use this as an opportunity to say ' actually i'm not paying that' is completely ludicrous. I would argue that you made an offer that was accepted so you better dig deep in your pockets and honour the sale!

Btw, please don't make any offers on my books.

Thanks

Joe

It's the sellers prerogative if they want to accept an offer or not.
And when someone offers an insane amount of money, it would be silly not to accept.
However, it's absolutely ridiculous when the person who offered the money says, "Oh, never mind. I don't really want to pay you that much. I was just hoping that it would start a conversation and I could get it for less than I said I was willing to pay".
That's the sort of behavior that should get called out.

There are several Gold members who sell something every day. Overall it is very smooth.

People will send me an issue like a seller not responding and I will contact them. Or a buyer doing something wrong and I deal with them. 99.9% of the time it's a great place to buy and sell.

On occasion, I step in and ban an account, like the lady who was trying to sell a reprint of Action 1 as real. "Yeah, I'm sure you picked up this Action Comics 1 at a flea market for $20"

This is why I don't sell online anymore. To be honest, I don't think messageboards should be used for private disagreements. Not complaining. I can easily skip this thread in the future.
