Great price, and it's the full 8-volume set (including Land of the Soviets and Alpha Art)! If I didn't have it yet, I would snag this now...

I'd post, but probably fake. Seller is Chinese only 83% ratings from just 59 reviews for the seller. 0 reviews on this set. And it sells for $130 everywhere else https://www.amazon.com/dp/0316495042/?tag=cl03f-20&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

Bought on my Platinum on the off chance it's legit. Otherwise I'll take it up with Amex.

Please post once you get it.

Could be a really good knockoff too.

There is another seller selling for 80$. I don't understand why you need to take it up with amex, just return it.

Gonna cancel. Based on the reviews this seller has for other books, it seems like a crappy counterfeit.

Seller does seem sketch but it ships from Amazon so they will help somewhat if there is an issue.

Aw, take one for the team.

Probably get it for free with no need to return if you tell Amazon it's counterfeit, assuming it really is...

For sure.

So you mean it is an even better deal? Is there really enough of a market to publish counterfeit TinTin books?

You're underestimating the popularity of Tintin. Remember they released a movie only a short time ago; there's obviously demand.

Interestingly, the items listed for sale on Amazon by the other seller are exactly the same as the ones listed by the cheaper one.

Absolutely, even my products were counterfeited in FBA by the thousands (10k+)

So I didn't cancel; it was delivered today. I'm pleasantly surprised - seems to be good quality.
