OK I know I mention alot of things that are wrong on here but one things STILL is happening and I'd like to know why

An offer is made on the book there is only ONE offer but seller says the book is "Sold" recently but it still shows up in Inventory and I was the only person that made an offer on the book so how does that keep happening? Are we having off site sales on other sites? Does the seller have multiple copies or only one??

This is so frustrating because of all the demand for certain books alot of people are falling into that trap of "All Comics are worth big money" which isn't the case or people change the pricing on their books in email's etc. but NOT on the actual website.

And what about trying to get a hold of a seller's they accept offers and vanish or take forever to ship out invoices? Or my favorite if they don't here from you in like 2-3 days they cancel the transaction without any communication...

I love how people are playing games instead of selling their books they list them honor the deal and sell them...simple

CPG members sell thousands of books. Taskmaster knows this because he personally has bought hundreds from CPG. I've said repeatedly that if you let me know of a seller who is unresponsive I will talk to them. Worst case I will delete their listings. (I did this last week to someone's account)

We are trying to build this part of the site and honestly it's going fantastic. We have 15% growth each of the last 2 years and 30% growth the year before. Yes, I get it there are a few bad sellers (and buyers) but the vast majority are honest people saving money selling here instead of the Bay.

Taskmaster, we've had this discussion before so I won't go into it again.

I've been forwarded messages that you sent to sellers a few times and some were rude or condescending. If you sent me a message like that, I would reject everything you made an offer on too. No one likes to be treated like that.

I'm trying to help you see this from someone else's point of view. If you were more understanding with sellers, more of them would want to sell to you. You buy a lot of comics so they should want you as a customer. If they sold it somewhere else, fine. It's no big deal. It's not worth calling them an _____ or a _______. You burn the bridge that you might want to cross in the future. It's not that deep if they sold a comic somewhere else. Treat sellers with kindness regardless.
