Loved the video!💕 Just started my comic book collection and found Toon Haven. They offer a huge variety of digital comics for every genre, and lifetime updates too!😍
It was a scam. Bottom line, the seller was hoping on the buyer, not checking out the book.
That’s a tough call. He didn’t check and neither did you. Did you contact the store? Maybe they are reputable and will do the right thing.
This is what I would do as well.
I would definitely go back next time and give him a chance to make it right, stuff happens.
Yes, this was absolutely 100% the Comic book store's fault for not checking before putting it up for sale. Moreso especially when it's a Key Book. I bought this beautiful Incredible Hulk #180 last month on Ebay (easily a 9.0), it came in the mail, I opened it and discovered that the Marvel Value Stamp had been cut out. I reread the auction description and nowhere did it mention that the Marvel Value Stamp was cut out. I got Ebay involved, showed them pictures. The Seller was mad and told me that I got a great deal and he would be be willing to give me a partial refund. EBay refunded all of my money and I sent him the book back.
not disclosing that cut stamp on a book that high is uncool,......
Glad you got your money back. I wouldn't have given a $hit if the seller got mad. He knew what he was doing by not disclosing the MVS was cut out.
I kick myself in the @ss every time I forget to check my books before I leave. We can only blame ourselves.
It’s the comic shops fault
It’s their business. Don’t let that slide. Call them right away. It’s a business transaction. Simple as that and they didn’t get it right.
It's the shop's fault for not checking one of their key books. It's your fault for not asking to see it in the shop, and it's your fault for not taking it back or at least calling the shop immediately upon learning of the problem.
Imagine how long it would take to do a proper inspection of every book in a comic shop. Do a page count, make sure there’s no writing or cutouts, check for trimming and restoration. I’m sure if you contacted them they’d make it right. I bought a book from a reputable Whatnot seller that had been trimmed. He did the right thing and gave me a refund and apologized.
I was taught years ago the saying “buyer beware”. It’s your money. I always check books over $20-25. Took me a lot of lessons before I did though.
yes you got hustled
That sucks. I bet they bought it in a collection and did a quick check on it. I had that almost happen to me. I had been wanting a Disney book from WW2 time frame where Donald is carrying a flag on the cover. A shop near me had bought a collection of 40s-50s Disney comics and it was in there. It had a detached cover and they had $100 on it. I asked them if I could look it over. They got it down and opened it up. The first thing I noticed is it wasn’t even a Disney comic on the inside. I think it was a Dennis the Menace or something. They were so embarrassed and upset that they didn’t catch it. I got lucky because I was going to drop the $100 on it. Red Sonja is her favorite character, right?
I had same thing almost happen. But, it was the first Kang appearance, I opened and looked At it and it was the cover on a Thor annual 1 comic. The shop owner apologized and said it was new inventory. Lesson learned, always check the comic.
Buyer beware, always.
I love how everyone is saying it's just the shops fault. It's also the buyers fault. I assume by looking at all the comments no one checks out anything they purchase? That's pretty foolish. If it was a dollar book I'd care less but a key issue I look at the cover, back cover, staples, check all the pages e.t.c. You both screwed up.
Sorry for what happened. I HATE when sh×t like that happens.
Oh, that is definitely the comic bookshop's fault.... If they're putting a price tag of originally 75 dollars, then they either need to make a 100% sure what they're selling, or they did it on purpose. Either way, horrible business practice..... That's playing with somebody else's hard earned money
I’d have to contact the shop and let them know.
That book looked like it was in crap condition and not worth $50. I’d say he probably didn’t know.
I am sure they/he checked his book. If he did not, then he shouldn't be in the business of owning anything, let alone a comic book shop. Put them on blast. Honest people spend hard earned money on this hobby. That is what Yelp is for. You have an honest, compliant.
This is the shop’s fault. They should have checked the comic especially since the cover was not attached. That is something they would have noticed since they would have had to rebag the comic after purchasing in a collection. Sorry that happened to you.
Valkerie.I would have been pretty upset. I hope he didn't scam you on purpose. Have you reached out to the shop?
Thanks a ton, this was super helpful!
im going to say black panther free giveaway
Sorry dude that is on you. I have said it a thousand times any pre-1985 book selling for more than $20 needs to be opened and pages counted. It happens to all of us....
I say you're both at fault, you have to check your books when you buy them, dropping 50 dollars on a book and not taking it out of the bag. Its a lesson.
Always check your books before buying. If they dont let you check just walk away.
Yes I was in a hurry and just trusted the shop but yes I wish I would’ve checked
Keep us updated. Would love to know how this gets resolved
Return it. Let them know. I had the same issue. I bought a Master of Kung Fu without the marvel value stamp. Bought it back and got a refund. The owner gave me a tough time but refunded me. Thank you for your content.
In my view, the comic shop bears more accountability. Sure, it's a good idea to check a $50 book, if for no other reason than to check out the back cover to make sure it's not half gone...but you shouldn't have had to. Who would intuitively think "ooh, I better check to make sure the inside comic matches the cover"?
I think it's their fault some shops don't like you taking their books out of the sleeves so how would you know ?
Thanks for sharing this, truly excellent content!
Even if the owner missed the fact that it was the wrong interior inside, at a minimum, he should have labeled it as fully detached.
Yes a lot of shops leave notes on the back if any issues with comic
The seller should have checked the book before selling it. It's possible that the seller acquired a bulk lot and didn't check the comic. It's also the buyers mistake by not checking the book for any issues.
This one is sellers fault 100%. As a business its your responsibility to make sure the product you are selling is correct. You can't pass on that burden to the buyer. Imagine having to open your cereal box to make sure its actually Lucky Charms and not Cheerios? Sounds silly right? Same with having to verify the interior of the key book you just purchased from a legitimate comic book shop is indeed the right book.
Call them give them a chance to make it right.
🔥
Nice haul
Thank you! 🤗
YO don't let this slide. They sold it and they knew if you told them your from out of town. Call them and if they don't put them on full blast. If it was just for your PC then eat it but it was for your daughter so go full papa bear on them
You would drive back 😂😂😂😂
@@WadeNslade nah not me😭🤣🥷
Thanks for all the content brother! Def an error on the shop.. i left an LCS yrs back due to those types of actions. Owner says he doesn’t have time to check his books for missing MVS, pages, etc.. icing was he didn’t want to open books up for customers to page thru either.. lessons we learn. Big love!🤙🏼
Damn! That's fowl! Apparently, this guy didn't check the book before buying it from whoever he bought it from! He should have checked it out ahead of time ! $75 in that condition? What the hell was he smoking? You got ripped off! Sorry dude! Karma will pay him back in time !
Absolutely the comic store's fault.... question: did you contact them? Did I miss what they said? I bought a comic from a comic store, got it home and found it had a detached cover; contacted store and they immediately said they'd refund me the money (and did). They even let me keep it. I wrote a nice review of their store in return.
Smart dealer.
In my opinion it’s both of your fault NEVER buy a big book without asking to take it out and look at it and if they won’t let you walk away
❤❤❤
Fantastic vid!!! Thanks a lot!
great video
Thanks!
It's hard not to trust the Comic Shop, but if it's an older book that looks rough and it's a key (even minor keys) you look thru the book to make sure it's complete and the cover is at least attached. It's a tough one to call who's at fault, but if it's $50 or more, check your books. Just like when you buy vintage games, open it to make sure it's not a bootleg. That's the world we live in. Lesson learned. Sorry, that happened to you. I hope it doesn't happen again. As far as tape pulls, people should use Label Dot stickers. they don't pull the plastic, and don't catch the book when you pull it out of the bag or when you try to put it back into the bag. Nice channel, hope you have a good one.
thanks for sharing
My pleasure
Great video, appreciate you sharing it!
Yeah that's tuff, but how did they not check it out?? Yeah and you should ask to peep it out, I guess especially now, I would ask to look at it in hole
Ouch! Take it back for your money! I bought a comic with the MVS cut out and nobody knew about it. I let it slide cuz the comic was under $10.00 but if it was $50 or higher I want everything in that comic! Sorry it happened
Its on the shop, but it happens, i dont know how many early 70s Marvel books i purchased over the years with marvel value stamps cut out, i blame the seller and myself, we all live and learn.
Thanks for watching and yes we all live and learn well said
It was all there fault. You need to contact them. That is some BS😢
Great show guys, thank you
Also the comic shop owner should of check his books. You gotta know what your selling. Not your fault. Definitely his. But if he blames it on you that you swap the comic sumin fishy for sure then..
Look folks the shop should have know but always look at your books before buying period
Yes I wish I would have I got lazy
not cool
It's mainly the shops fault, he had to known what he was selling to place a price on it. Whne buying and got discount price, didn't you's both mention the condition if it's fully intact etc? If you had of checked at the time then you'd know if he was trying to scam you if they didn't you let open it or he'd discover he didn't check it either.
Go back and mention it to see what they say, then we'll know what kinda shop they are on how they handle this.
No way at 75 he didnt grade it. Take it back 100% sellers responsibility
Love that first storm breaker cover. What happened with the first red Sonya stinks. Something like that happened to me a while back, now if I spend more than $10 I check the comics on the spot.
I always check raw books priced over $20 before buying. Those Bronze and Silver age in particular have a good chance of missing/torn pages, clipped coupons, pen writing inside, etc.
And if you say the dealer should check his inventory before selling. I agree. Though most dealers buy collections with possibly thousands of books. They might miss something while checking over hundreds of books a day... or they don't have time to check everything. The way I see it, me as a buyer need to do my own due diligence and check what I'm buying. The old saying goes "Buyer beware!"
If the dealer refuse to do that... I would rather walk away than spend money on incomplete books... which are probably worthless. And a lot of dealers are reluctant to take the book back after you went home and discovered the damage. They would have no idea if the book got switched out... or maybe you caused the damage after the fact.
The best is to go over the book with the dealer watching so you have that peace of mind of no surprises when you look at the book at home. In a good way... this prevents me from going over board at the LCS or conventions by buying too many books in one day. There is only so many books I want to look through in a period of time.
It think is 80-20. 80 percent their fault because they should know what you are selling. And 20 percent yours because anything over cover price, you need to check the book for defects and grade.
Unless the comic book shop wants people opening up the books before they buy it it is 100% on the store to ensure what they are selling is accurate. It’s a difficult situation to prove they did a dodgy on you on purpose though. Sorry.
ill definitely try that, thanks!
I'm a fan of your channel but I must have missed what your daughters favorite character was so I'm gonna just guess that it's Spider-Man?
the comic shop pulled a fast one on you
That's totally on you for not checking what your purchasing. Especially if they are asking $50 or more for the book. I personally would have checked the value of the book first online, then checked every inch of that book to see if it was worth what they were asking before negotiating a price if i were really interested in the book. Plus your story is kinda vague for people passing judgement immediately on the shop. A lot of details seem left out of the story. I would have more questions before passing judgment on the shop...just saying
Most of these bozos don’t check the books. My LCS Royal Collectibles in NY checks every single page major books for any defects. He’s legit. Hate to break it to you but Most places are fake amateur comic shops who act as traps for collections buddy.
The shop’s fault for sure. They had to know when they bagged the comic that it was loose, and they had to check it
I believe the comic shop didn’t know they probably buy collections all the time from people walking into the shop. There has been many times I’ve been in a comic shop and random people just come in with a handful of random comics that they want to sell to the comic shop. And I don’t spend a lot of time in my local lcs so I know this probably happens more often than I think. Because every time I go to the lcs the guy has more random long boxes than they had last time. he hasn’t made it to sort through yet. So I believe the shop had no clue that it was just the cover of the comic and the guts were a different comic. If they are getting so many comics coming in to the shop they just don’t have time to go through them all. To check if all the pages at there. I have bought comics that the center fold was there but detatched or the back cover was missing and didn’t know. it is my fault for just assuming it’s all good and complete you know. If your a comic collector and buy a lot of comics you certainly understand that you will buy comics faster than you will read or go through them so it goes for the same for the comic shop. I wouldn’t pass the blame on the lcs or even the person that sold it they might not of even knew it was different you could probably go back to the same shop and see if the other issues of Conan are there in the same lot the original owner might of just had A few Conan comics and they were all detached while they were reading them all and they got mixed up when they put them up then later on someone just stuck them in a bag and board and sold it to the shop with out even looking at it. That could be a possibility of what happened we don’t really know but back then people sort of treated comic books differently than we do today it was just a disposable media form people would pick up at the grocery store fast station magazine and comics were everywhere back then it was like reading a newspaper while taking a shit it gave you something to look at. And people didn’t treat comics as well as we all do today. Like we all got our cell phones today for entertainment and all people had back then had Were magazines and comics you know. It’s just different times.
That's some bs... take it back!
The shop might have scammed you or it was just an accident. But you didn't check the book out either, so charge this one to the game I guess. Your daughter is a Valkyie girl. Good video. 👽🍻
100% it's the shops fault. The shop didn't check the book when they bought it. Guaranteed they didn't check it.
You should definitely mention the stores name.
Sorry that happened comic book shops fault but always check
Hopefully you can get some compensation but I'd put that one one the store. I know they can't catch everything but that's a pretty big boo-boo.
I like those Thor books!!! That is dirty pool... 😮
I will say Black Panther 😁. But definitely it's the comic store fault cause they suppose to know what they fully have and what they are getting. Would return it
Comic shop should definitely go through every book before putting it up for sale On the other hand I never buy a comic book over $25 without holding it and looking through it cool channel man
very helpful, worth the watch
that is not a good look for them at all. I hope they will make it up to you, love your content and the deals you come across. Its amazingly sad how or ppl would do to make a buck. Good luck on future finds.. lesson learned
thanks for sharing my friend
wow, great video. thanks so much
You’re both at fault. Always check interiors on big $ purchases. Lesson learned. Be glad it wasn’t a pricier book.
If he's selling that comic for 75$ he KNOWS what he has. That was pretty shifty. I would have called them and demanded a refund. Ship it back to them and they should pay for your shipping and a full refund for the book.
Contact him. He may do the right thing.
You’re a nice guy.
This time go back and explain.
Sounds like a mistake. You can’t even open your inspect every book in the store.
I’d go back to the shop
Always Always Always have them open the book so you can check it. At the very least it should have been marked as a detached cover. Hope the store makes it right.
Your daughter's favorite marvel character is Red Sonja.
It's the shops fault. I bought a book from a new shop in my area. A few months later I got around to reading it and the back of the book was completely missing. Paid $20.00 for it and was really upset. The shop didn't fix the situation either.
Definitely both of you and the comic book stores fault. I always pull the book out of the bag at the counter if the book is over $10 and go through it page by page checking for hole punches, cigarette burn holds, cuts, dog ears, what print is it, etc.. Now maybe the Comic store owner bought that in a large bulk buy and missed that comic but it is a Major Key and he shouldve checked it..
Either way take this as a lesson learned and move on from it. I doubt the store will admit it now that you left the store with it.
I’m gonna tell you what happened to me this week. I was looking for amazing Spider-Man 410 The guy won $30. I say OK can I check the book and he kind of hesitate OK thank He asked me so you don’t want it and I said only if I checked it I say if bend I pay for it. So I checked the book. It’s a mint condition and I pay for it. You got a check, brother.
Yes I buy a lot of books I just got lazy I guess i’m too trustworthy
I hope her favorite is Harley Quinn!!
You should call that comic shop ASAP and tell them what happened and see if they will do something about it cause what if you got a big book like Hulk#181 and it was really Hulk#182 you would be very pissed off so it is there fault.
Bro, if they don’t give you your money back....
Ya, definitely a mistake on both sides, l.c.s. have lots of inventory, could be an honest mistake, but then again, also an experience to remember check the book before buying, if it's to good to be true, check it first! Had a similar experience at a l.c.s. thought the cover was attached but it was not, but it was my for not checking first! Just started to watch your videos, so don't know the answer, good luck to the person who gets it, thanks for sharing! God bless
Thanks for watching God bless 😊
Can't wait to start my collection
Oh shot you were burnt bad
Just return it. Why take the hit?
spiderman
Take it back and show them
