Best in the business Nuff said. Added bonus is they are a great bunch of guys to hang around with at shows....but don't stay to long or they put you to work

Easy one for me Bats 1 doesn't get any better than 1st Joker. If you could get rid of Robin it would be perfect.

Fast payment, pleasure to deal with. Thanks again Brian

I don't put up back scans unless there is a flaw...tanning, writing etc If the book is well centered and no flaws I don't bother unless asked.

For the record Tim, I sold one of the books after November 1st which was the full 30 days I needed to wait. We agreed on Oct 1st so I went ahead and sold one of the books after the waiting period. I waited for you response which did not arrive till last night. I nominated you for probation, but other people came on mentioning that you had been on and come off several times and if it happened again you would be put on the HOS list. You reneged on a deal, and you ended up there. You have only yourself to blame.

As a follow up to my original post. I would like JokerFish added to the list. I had my sales thread early this spring and gave him till October 1st to buy 2 ASM books. He gave me a deposit, last I heard from him was September. I left him one more message in October(1st) it has still been unread. It has been 30 days since payment was due and had at least 5 months on time payments to make it happen. I hate doing this but it should be reported. 2nd bad incident on these boards. Maybe it was his brother again, or showcase4's son... This is why, although it honestly pains me... I've finally come to the conclusion that people who finally wind up on this list should have an asterisk...or a tattoo.. It just keeps repeating, and they are all charming...I know a few people who really had problems will be caught up, but even in those cases, if they just communicate honestly, I doubt they'd wind up here. Well, the link didn't work, but if you do a search in 2008 and 2009, you'll find the posts. I don't typically come to this thread, can't remember the last time I did in fact. But a couple days ago a boardie PMd me about joker-fish and said that he was having a problem with him and others were as well. I know Tim, and was surprised to hear this. I know he works crazy hours at the plant and assumed it was a timing thing. I've never had a problem with Tim. He lives about 45 minutes from me and have done quite a bit of sales with him. He always paid when he said he would. Every time. He's bent over backwards to help me sort through collections and helped me set up and break down from a show. I contacted him about the PMs I got and he contacted the folks and I assume all has been either worked out or in process. I will see him later today and get an update. I'm not making excuses for Tim. If he left some folks hanging, he shouldn't have. But, I am confident he will make it right. If he needs my help to make it right, then I will assist any way I can. The key is, and I will share this with him today, if you run into problems on a payment plan or something like that, communication will normally keep the fires from buring too hot. I learned that lesson a long time ago, and try not to repeat it. I've been very fortunate with these boards as I've bought and sold tons of stuff on here and haven't had a single problem. I hate to see fellow boardies that have had issues that haven't been resolved. Sad really. We are a community of geeks, and should keep it that way. Thanks Bill. As a follow up to my post, Tim did finally pm me to let me know he has not been on the boards for over a month, that he has decided to stop collecting and confirm he will not be buying the books as he agreed. He deserves to be on the HOS.

unfortunately no...magazine are significantly bigger Ok, back to the grind. I ordered the 1013M2 Mylites 2 from you guys and they fit my GA slabs fine. Im working on something that fits like a glove.

Headline 8, Pep 34, Wonderworld 8...you won't see those on any sales wall at any convention (thumbs u this week You may want to update that list

Congrats

I was able to upgrade my 3.5 to this 5.5 thanks to Imran. The great part is another board member has joined the TEC 28 club. I hope he decides to post here as well My new copy:

I have done numerous transactions with Tom. One of the board's best. Always a pleasure to deal with and great to play golf with. A true friend. Look forward to Torrey next year.

Need some feedback. I sold two books on my last sales thread. I gave the buyer roughly 6 months to pay and took $100 deposit for 2k of books. I asked that payment be made for Oct 1st. I sent pm mid and late Sept which were replied that things had happened and he needed to pay off various expenses but he was selling some items and was trying to make the Oct 1st deadline. I sent a pm Sept 18th, Sept 30th both of which were read and one final pm Oct 13th which has not been read. As payment was due Oct 1st, should I just report Novemeber 1st and keep the deposit or should I nominate him now??? Thanks for your input

Saw this book in person. Great pick up. well done.

Kudos to mtlevy (Marc) Thanks for the GA Fortresses. Excellent and fast shipping.

My 28-37 run. Not the greatest picture, but the only one I have before being tucked away. This is the type of thing that makes me miss the days when this thread was more active. What a fantastic group-shot. (thumbs u Any stories behind the "why" and "how" you landed all of those? All these books have either been owned by George(1KOKO) or Rick(G.A tor). The first book I bought was the TEC 33. George had it in the forum sales, I debated, pondered and pulled the trigger. It was nearly not meant to be, I had just purchased a Mac and had the Caps on. When I emailed George I presented an offer earlier and was asking if we had a deal, the second pm was all in CAPS.... it really came across as I was yelling or demanding, George responded as expected. I looked back and sent an email explaining it was not my intention, and if he took it that way I apologized. George being the nice guy he is, brushed it off and we came to a deal. I was lucky to close a real estate deal during the year and as well receive commisions from my job. As I already contribute to my RRSP savings and watched the market collapse, I decided to take stab at the run. As mentioned all these books came from Rick and George, and they are awesome to work with. The allow time payments and are willing to work with you. With our Canadian dollar close to par with the US$ and with these books being offered to me, I couldn't say no. Having an awesome wife always helps as well. The only book that gave me stress in acquiring was the 28. It's an incredibly hard book to acquire unrestored. I know of a beautiful 5.5, but it was out of my price range at the time. A 3.5 came to auction on comic connect, I thought I had this book won, and was ready to celebrate when a snipe bid came in and extended the auction. 20 minutes later and several bid increments more the book was finally mine. I asked both Rick and George what they thought the going price would be,,,,,, both were dead on. If I find out they were the underbidder... well let's not go there Lastly, we have the grail of grails imo. TEC 27. Rick had one in SDCC 2009 and if not for a medical mishap, I'm convinced I had a good shot at landing it, probably would only have the 27 and 33 but I'm happy with this run. I just need to add a mid to high grade restored book at a reasonable price if that exists. And to conclude this is what makes collecting comics so great from Archies, to tranformers to GA... the thrill of the hunt and the overwhelming feeling of triumph when the run or series is complete. Would you have sold the rest of the run minus the 33 to pick up the 27? If so, why hold onto the 33 above the rest; or did I misinterpret? At the time I only had the 33, so before going after the rest of the run... I would have gone after the 27. #33 is a special book as it's my first pre-robin tec. I still would choose 29 , 35, 31 in that order. The 33 comes 4th for me but still special.
