We have several great sellers here on Comics Price Guide. I've bought from some of them and had no issues. They are great members of our community who help collectors.

Today, I was informed of a seller who had $1 on all auction and then never accepted an offer. That seller has had all their listings removed until they can explain what's happening. If no reasonable explanation is given, their account will be deleted. Technically, the transaction is between the buyer and the seller but if we know there is a problem we will step in to help.

I'm publically saying this (without using their name) because we want you to know that we are watching this kind of thing. We want this to be a safe place to purchase comics and to grow a great community.

Taskmaster, you know that I have worked with you in the past about bad sellers. I've deleted their accounts or ended every auction they have. It's not fair to throw out your comment about people being on here for years and not responding. I'm here to help and make this the best place to buy comics. If you have someone specific that you've had a problem with please let me know with an email.

We have an automated system that will put all auctions into vacation mode (invisible to everyone but them) if someone hasn't logged into the site in 3 months. If someone reports that a seller is unresponsive, I will investigate. We have been able to resolve all issues through one means or another.

We moved your post from the "missing issues" area to the General comic Discussion area.

https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topic15264-people-need-to-talk-instead-of.aspx

In your post, you talk about people needing to take a chill pill. Yet, here you are ranting again about this same situation. This is a situation that is best solved by you two talking about it. When that doesn't work, then you can involve CPG. It's not that big of a deal, no one got in trouble or banned or socially shunned.

Taskmaster,
As I mentioned before, deal with these things between you and the seller and if necessary involve me. Calling this seller out on the forum is bad form on your part. Sending mean spirited messages to sellers is wrong as well. You cannot do that. There is no excuse for it. We want a friendly community for buyers and sellers.

"Then what to do with a seller who doesn't honor the agreement of a buyer by not accepting offers? No matter what the deal with the seller is?"

If a seller does not accept your offer, there is no agreement. It takes two to form an agreement. See above for possible reason they won't sell to you.
