He hunts down Fine+ books, takes small pics and sells them as NM. Then, when contacted he's a punk.

One word summation of Vikes:

Vikes again...ugh I'm actually surprised this punk is still up and selling on Ebay. Based on his recent feedbacks, it just reinforces the fact that a lot of collectors still don't know what the term NM is. :|

He is scum and he still trades somehow.
How is it that his DSR is poor and below the standards set by ebay and also he gets so many negs and yet fools still buy from him.
Check his completed listings and see for yourself what he has passed on at premium prices this month alone.

I for one will never understand how this continues.

Wait, isn't #A-R673 one of the coin ones?

Like about faces of historical figures on coinage and something about the intrinsic value of silver and nickel?

You're thinking of #Ag-EB1997 vol. 2.

What's funny is, I had a *SQUEE*-y transaction with him the first time, then saw a Rai #3 with a CHEAP BIN, hit it, realised it was Vikes, and actually received a NM/NM+ copy.

Not really Valiant books, but worthy of shame:

http://cgi.ebay.com/VINTAGE-AUTOGRAPHED ... 0298607795
ill start the sell price way low.
That was an ill-chosen way low sell price, despite the fact that it's one of the best covers featuing Random, a personal favourite of mine.

And next up:

http://cgi.ebay.com/POWER-GLORY-1994-MA ... 0266740951

Has K. lost his *SQUEE* mind? $78 for Power and Glory 1 Serigraph? Was that supposed to be 78 cents?
