    Like many others in this feedback feed, I was SCAMMED. They took my money, didn't send the item, and I had to get eBay to issue a refund. They shut down their store frequently so you can't contact them. They apparently to be using eBay as an ATM, borrowing money by selling items they have no intention of selling. AVOID.

    Order was cancelled several days after the purchase, no money back yet. I should've refrain from doing business with this store based on previous reviews this is very common. It's been 5+ days and I don't have my money back.

    Seller saw other copies (autographed) were listed for over 200.00 and decided to refund my money and try for more. Bad policy. It was listed, bought/paid for immediately. BEWARE
