[Make Offer] Tmnt #1 first print 7.5

Grendel · 07-23-2015, 03:14 AM

So I have a number one first print. It is a restored grade due to a small color touch on the cover. You can't see it though. I guess Cgc caught it with there special lighting. Anyway I wanted to test the waters here first so feel free to send me offers. But I was also wondering what you guys thought I could get for it on eBay?

Already SOLD

*Ecto Jedi* · 07-23-2015, 04:54 PM

Ha, congrats.

How much did it go for? Out of curiosity.

Grendel · 07-24-2015, 06:38 AM

Well I am starting to think it has not sold at all. The buyer keeps trying to get me to do the transaction off ebay. And has yet to pay for it. I honestly think he is trying to scam me.

If he tries to get you to do anything with western union or money order, run.

Was this listed on ebay? If not (i.e. the deal is happening here through these boards) and the buyer is using Paypal then everything is likely fine.

I am always happy to do straight transactions via paypal, but I always have them pay first before removing the ebay listing.

I second this. I've dealt outside eBay upon request (even though I know you shouldn't cause of their rules). Anyway as long as they pay I think you're golden. I'd recommend signature confirmation if you're concerned about it.

If you complete the transaction off-eBay, isn't there danger of the buyer doing a "chargeback" through PayPal down the line?

JayDubs · 07-24-2015, 12:06 PM

Both buyer and seller are covered on PayPal as long as it is not sent as a gift and is sent as merchandise. Not sure what the purpose of the buyer suggesting to go off eBay, usually it's the seller who requests that to save on the huge percentage eBay charges on their fees.

Exactly this. Unless he asked for a discount for doing it that way, then it would make sense, and could potentially be win/win for both of you (of course eBay wouldn't be happy). I've bought plenty from eBay and will usually accommodate a seller that requests Paypal outside of eBay, though I won't send the money as a gift unless it's someone I can reasonably trust (such as a member here with good history), since I'd be at their mercy from that point.

JayDubs · 07-24-2015, 01:01 PM

I agree Duke, I would trust people on here, and have had some good luck with buying a few things from sellers here and have had no issues. Agreeing to a gift payment to a random on eBay is another story though.

*I Crave Pizza No More* · 07-24-2015, 09:51 PM

As a seller you can avoid the 10% commission that eBay charges you, but I'm not sure why the buyer would care about that. Frankly, I would proceed with caution, especially if it doesn't feel right to you.
