This arrived today:

 

 

It's an upgrade from the first Batman I ever bought (and the second comic ever in my collection). I still have the original, VG copy I purchased in the summer of 1976 from the spinner rack in my local pharmacy.

REV

I took the plunge and purchased this copy of Golden Comics Digest #31 8/73 on eBay. I needed it for my run but had been holding out for a HTF, higher grade copy.

After holding out for a few years, I pretty much forgot about the book and focused on the more available issues. Then, not too long ago, Jayman...I think.... posted a copy of the book in the dragons and dinosaurs thread. His post renewed my interest in looking for a copy. I started searching the internet and any other options I could think of, with no success. I had all but given up the search when one day, out of the blue, I receive an email notice from ebay, informing me that a Turok had been listed and that I should "BUY IT NOW"!!

I checked the auction and looked over the expected, small pics. They gave no real clue of the grade. The book was described as being NM with a small abrasion on the upper right corner

Since i've been burned many times before by raw, eBay/NM books, I was skeptical

I contected the seller (basementcomics) about the condition of the book and checked the scans a trillion times without seeing any major flaws other than the slight abrasion already mentioned by the seller. I decided that the book could be worth the risk and also reminded myself that it could be a long time before another higher grade copy comes around. I took the chance, hit the BIN and told myself that even if it turned out to be a 9.2, i'd be happy.

I received the book today and think that (Basementcomics) was real close with their NM grade. It's glossy and the only real flaw that I can find is the very small abrasion on the FC / URC and the spot on the top edge (looks huge in the scan) To be honest, i'd be happy even if it turned out to be slightly under NM -.

Thanks for looking.

I guess you leave me no alternative than to force me to use the "Notify Moderator" button. I incourage others to do the same. We have GOT to make a stand on this kind of thing!

 

 

JC,

Please remove the offensive scans you posted in this and the other thread.

Thank you,

FM

I've never even seen a Playgirl magazine.

I don't know why you'd say anything at all. Unless asked.

Don't like the price, just move on.

 

Then find the guys ebay id, buy something from him and NEG HIM!!!!

 

Why do this???

 

Because you paid the asking price and the Seller is a bad guy???

 

Two wrongs do not make one right...

 

CAL the Seller today...

Um...I was joking.

That's a beauty!

Wow those supermans are like telling your life story greggy

Cover 1:Greggy strikes out a lot.

Cover 2:Women are toughener then greggy.

Cover 3:Even desperate women don't want greggy.

Cover 4:When they see greggy in natural light they are horrified!

Cover 5:Women belittle greggy.

Isn't toughener something you put on steak?

Those painted covers are great.

Wow. Andy those are incredible.

All will be for sale when I get home in a few weeks. Can't afford to keep them.

I can see why you're buying. Great colors....

Sweet!

I really like the Invaders. Good going. (thumbs u

I love the eye stalks on the 1st one. Pulps had SoooOOoOO many wonderful covers.

Eye stalks

Kudos to johnenock for the great copy of, "Tales of Evil" which is now buried in my comic box. (thumbs u

We want the rest of the story!!

How does someone get removed from the list? I had a successful transaction with someone on it, and for a fair chunk of change, too...

 

Bob, I think that the original 'injured party' has to request their removal, confirming that the original transaction has been mutually and amicably put to bed.

 

And don't forget...one swallow does not a summer make.

 

Tell it to Capistrano.

Major Kudos to Scott (Cloudofwit) for going out of his way to, not only inform me via PM of a Turok article that he knew about but also copied it and mailed it to me, free of charge. Deftinatly an asset to the boards.

Thanks (thumbs u

Anyone have any other contact info for Henchman? I bought 2 "high grade" wonder woman's that were sent to me in a priority envelope with no protection, just 2 bagged & boarded books in there. I opened up 2 FN+ copies, I am assuming from the poor packing. Anyway, it's been 3 days with no return contact to me when I responded with that info. I am not happy & would like to contact them.

Arrived today:

 

 

Mega kudo's to warlord for the big batch of safely shipped comic goodness. (thumbs u
