So, is this dealer somehow associated with JT? If not, then it would have to be someone's gift copy, right?

It IS JT, or at least someone working for Superverse.

nah, I've just been following the Zoom Suit auctions for a while, so I've seen a lot of items moved by this seller.

Are the shipping costs always that high in the other auctions?

I didn't think so, I thought he usually charged $5 for just a single book. I know they don't combine shipping costs, but they do send you a ton of extra ZS stuff, and not junk, either. I haven't bought anything from them yet as I've been able to find almost everything I need a little cheaper elsewhere.

This made me laugh. I see these all the time. Quarter books. Think there's any truth to the story.....?

Personally, I wish everyone would do that to every copy of Deathmate...then mine will be worth more.

$20 shipping for one book, and they KNOW they're being an a$$hole because they make sure they mention their shipping price is "non-negotiable". He can take that book and wipe his a$$ with it as far as I'm concerned!

It was an ASM book (I believe #298) listed at 99 cents with a $20 non negotiable shipping charge.

There's marketing, then there's marketing to stupid people.

Wow. That was fast. I sent an keyword abuse report to eBay. I was a listing for Rai 0 -5 all CGC graded & signed by Bob Layton. In the title it listed them as 9.8. In the auction descriptions it had them at 9.4 and 9.6 books. And in the picture there one was an 8.5 and there were 2 9.2 books.
