KUDOS THREAD - positive feedback on buyers/sellers
cloudofwit replied to BronzeBruce13's topic in Kudos Forum
Kudos to: gregreece for a few sweet Wonder Woman slabs. -
Very nice books indeed. But that ASM #60 is a 9.?...I 'bout got blinded by the light, to quote a Boss tune. :doh: Nevermind. I just saw what you posted at the tail end of the pics.

And Jerel too! Now I know my overdue kudos go back farther than I thought. :frown: How could I forget a fella who includes in his sales threads pics of himself with his books in the soil of the earth. -

Some timely kudos, some long overdue kudos (and an admission that the length of this missive is obnoxiously long)... --dzminn for some stuff from a spring sales thread, including a sweet reader of TOS #41. --mazman77 for a nice, low grade ASM #121 (and a separate order of a huge ASM reader lot that I still haven't sorted through--if there's missing pages and coupons, months down the road when I get a chance to look 'em over, I'll be at your door. ). --Peter Palmer for a big lot of books too (received 'em but haven't gone through them--see above qualification ). --frankbearss for a lot of 20 modern ASMs at a very reasonable price. :smile: --bronzilla for allowing me my first experience with Fast Willie Jackson #1 and Ronald McDonald #1. --FIREFLY for a GL #18 (modern, baby, modern) and for working with me through a snafu. --cd4ever for the normal junky batch, including a Fruitman Special #1. That's right, Fruitman Special. Whaddya want to start something? :shrug: --JiveTurkeyMofo for a sweet ASM #441 slab that I just had to have since it marked that fateful issue when the re-numbering was about to commence. -- Pontoon for DD #200 and a couple of latter-day Sgt. Rocks. --Comicsarefun for an ASM #121 at a nice price. :smile: --CDaBruce for a batch of ASM slabs that are adding to my white page ASM slab collection (a very sparse one at the moment, I may add ). --Spiderman-on-Tilt for some books, including an ASM #129 that I needed to complete a run of Spideys that I need to soon sell on the boards (#102-202--coming to a sales thread near you, by, hopefully, this weekend). --Wrightson fan for a couple of books, including a Hulk #400--not too terribly long before that series also got the voodoo re-numbering number put on it. --dopy02 for doing something truly bizarre and quite charitable simultaneously: in celebration of his 1,000th post, he gave away 7 comics, including free shipping and an ASM #63, 88, and 188. Who does that kind of thing? These boards are a unique place. --annihilus for sending me that Power Record (yes, a 45 RPM vinyl bad boy for all those long enough in tooth to remember the day) that was ASM #124 revisited...and brought me back to when I was 6 years old and trotting it up to the 7-Eleven for an ASM comic and a Slurpee inside of a Marvel cup. Also, annihilus tossed in another Power Record Spidey on the house. :hail: --shark for sending on an ASM #110 and LoneTree for sending on an ASM #179, so that I could add them to the #129 that Spiderman-on-Tilt sent on so that I could have the #102-202 set to soon sell here. --Chuck Gower for a triple shot of Millenium Edition madness--I now have copies to read of Action Comics #1, Detective Comics #27, and Batman #1--not to mention the Superman 3-D book tossed in as a freebie. --BustedFlush for a copy of The Comic Book Marketplace #2, where I could read about the 20-year anniversary of The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide (are we at 40 now?! ) and an article on the Edgar Church / Mile High pedigree (has Chuck sold his remaining Mile Highs for 1 million yet? ). And, if I missed anyone, chime in and show your face so I can give appropriate kudos. -
A relatively new boardie, Spider-Slayer, has some sweet copies of ASM #97-98 for sale in the Gold/Silver/Bronze sub-forum--and at a great package price. And he directed a post at clobberintime that if he wants them, then post the (clobberintime had not posted in the thread) Obviously, there was communication going on via PM. I don't know him, but the screen name seemed familiar so I checked the Probation List and there clobberintime was (added in Nov. 2007--there on the very first page of the Probation List thread--and on the last page via the updated list :hail:). When I looked at the Probation List just minutes ago, there were a number of folks whose screen names I didn't recognize--and I thought I kinda knew the list. I think the idea of posting a list in the marketplace, as has been suggested, is a no-brainer.

Amazing Spider-Man Collecting Thread!
cloudofwit replied to Point Five's topic in Silver Age Comic Books
NO WAY! I sold off issues 53 - 100 (less about 10 books that were keepers for me...basically all the good ones... ) to fund the acquisition of what I'll refer to as "little big" books (well, for me anyway ) for my set...I'll be reporting back soon... -

Kudos to: --FIREFLY for a sweet GL #18--packaged to survive a bomb. Thanks, Julio. :thumbsup: --arexcrooke for a very nice Bats #242, my first Batman pedigree. Thanks, Arex. -
Wear your patch with pride. That was a great thread, i wonder if anyone has it archived If my memory serves me well, bhhooks22 was one of the recipients of "Yo mama" rhetoric. ::

UPDATED PROBATION LIST ONLY - no discussions
cloudofwit replied to divad's topic in Marketplace Probations
Pure coincidence! Bosco on the bust. :hail: -
I've seriously thought about it, but I'd lose the time I could spend either here or on internet porn, and I'd really miss you guys. You'd have to top rocker Joe Walsh's 1980 platform when he made his presidential bid: a campaign promise to give every American citizen free gas and toilet paper. I hesitate, Dice, to ask what your campaign promise would entail.

Both books tough in grade. White pages. One a Curator. Too much to fathom, so I'll resort to graemlins. :hail: :hail: Awesome pick-ups. :headbang: -
KUDOS THREAD - positive feedback on buyers/sellers
cloudofwit replied to BronzeBruce13's topic in Kudos Forum
Kudos to: --cd4ever for the usual sweet junk...although it was disappointing that greggy didn't stop in for some harassment. :frown: --Annihilus for a great deal on some Marvel Team-Up and Nova readers that filled in some holes. --tigerscomics for a triple shot of sweetness at a very reasonable price: ASM #120-122--AND two of my favorite BA Spideys thrown in as freebies--#150-151. -

Kudos to: JiveTurkeyMoFo for a stupendous copy of ASM #149 CGC 9.6 (WP). Thank you, George, for allowing a time payment plan. When the book arrived, I was transported back to the summer of 1975 when I was an 8-year-old, and the clone saga began to mess with my poor mind. :: -
I didn't think anyone would buy his books, but that's not really my point. It's how he was treated. Was/is he a scammer? Possibly, I suppose. Could be legit, I really don't know. He may be unknown to many of us, but I don't think he was asked for any references. People just all around him until he had no choice but to step in it. I woke up early this morning to that thread and noticed it jumped an incredible amout, page-wise. I read each and every post () and after a while I did sense he/she was a scammer and got what was coming--and maybe he/she was even enjoying it :shrug:...BUT it could've been legit since I'm not all-knowing (my wife reminds me of this daily :smirk:).

Kudos to: --CaptainOfIndustry for a nice ASM #50 that he donated for the Isabella auction--in a package that contained a couple of very generous freebies. :hail: Thank you, Andrew. --tigerscomics for my 1st Hulk #181, a low grade, very reasonably priced specimen with a couple of very nice freebies tossed in as well. :think: Deja vu? What's with the freebie action? :shrug: Makes one want to do something like this: :headbang:
