At any rate, you don't have to wait 30 days.
Positive, the books were not secured in the box and were allow to move around in the box and one corner on the said book was crushed.

Did you take any pics. In a situation like that, its best sometimes to take pics of the box before and after it's opened. Just a suggestion.
The box was barely damaged (one corner was a bit smashed and only noticeable after I saw the book was destroyed and looked at the book more closely), I took many pictures of the crushed book and 1/2 back.

GENERAL PUBLIC SERVICE NOTICE ON POSTING GUIDELINES
Note that the members of this board are encouraged to POLITELY point out posts that violate the marketplace posting guidelines, and to notify the moderators.
Thread starters: If you disagree that the guidelines have been violated and have reasons, then take it to the discussion thread and hash it out there. But please take the time to read the guidelines.
A probation list for bad transactions is maintained by the community. You are still responsible for your own transactions.
I bought 2 books from a seller and one was destroyed in shipping due to faulty packing, over the past week the seller has repeatedly refused to come to any type of agreement on compensation and has accused me of doing the damage. I provided numerous pictures and told him exactly why it happened (due to his poor packing job) but he has refused to listen.
Do I need to wait 30 days to nominate him for the list or can I do it now since he flatly refuses to take any responsibility/compensate me? I have already opened a PayPal dispute since he refuses to issue a refund.
Did you send him a PM letting him know about this thread? ?
I've been going back and forth with him for a week now, last night I told him if he didn't come to some kind of agreement (after multiple requests) I would open the PayPal dispute and post here.
Just send him a new PM in a new PM thread stating clearly that you've brought him up here. It's one of the steps.
And you gotta reveal his name. No one goes on the list nameless.

OK this is getting STUPID! How can sellers on Ebay get added to the list who are not even members to the forums just for adding CGC IT. Even if they belong to the forums its stupid! Did they cheat anyone? No! They just wasted 20 seconds of your time! Who cares, I don't, when I search for books on Ebay I just scroll past them

Just add the following to your eBay search:
-"cgc it" -"cgc worthy"
Use the double quotes to specify the phrase you don;t want. Use the minus sign before the double quotes to indicate you do not want to see listings that have that phrase. That will eliminate those phrases from your search
For example: Incredible Hulk CGC -"cgc it" -"cgc worthy"
PS - many if not most know this but some may find it useful

The seller is tfa1998, here are the pictures I sent him and I have more. The books were double boxed and put in a cardboard press in the second box but the press was held together with one piece of cellophane tape and the books not taped to the press. When I opened the box the books were loose from the press and free to move around in the box.
The corner was completely off the book when I pulled it out of the bag and the corner on the back cover is barely attached.

Hey guys, I didn't have a problem refunding his money if the book was banged up but have any of you honestly seen a corner ripped off from inside a bag? The only time I've seen this is when a book was snatched out of the bag and ripped. This was a high grade book so its not like the paper was weak. Most of you guys have bought from me before, books are double boxed and cardboarded and I've never had any problems with shipping. I told him if the majority of the board said this could totally happen this way I would honor its integrity and give him a refund. I personally do not see a way for this to have happened during shipping
Could the cover have gotten brittle perhaps? Looks like I see a couple other flecks in the bag and the top left spine may be missing a small piece...hard to see for sure. I know I got a Wings 90 a while back...looked great with fantastic cover colors, but pulled it out of the bag and board and some small pieces trailed behind.
Anyway, I think the jostling of shipping shook loose some pieces that were hanging on just barely before it was sent my way.
