  1. You guys are killing me here with all the high grade MLJ goodness! Alas, I must stick to my low grade lovelies.
  2. Not only a great score but an eclectic group of comics too. Robotmen of the Lost Planet! What are the odds of finding that alongside a Sheena #1?! Not to mention the Adventure and More Fun.
  3. Sweet! Great looking #37 Andre Thanks for sharing! What issues do you need to complete the run? 31, 33 and 35.No rush as I'm tapped out till SDCC got a 27 huh!? Ooooo! Lets see it!
  4. I would have sold a kidney before I sold those books. Hell, I have two kidneys.
  5. always have loved this cover. well done, sir. Very nicely done! I had to settle for a purple label.
  6. I named mine Waldo. In my batchelor days, all the ladies loved playing a little game of where's Waldo.
  7. I love how the pig just wanders in at the end.
  8. The Beatles. Listening to Abbey Road right now. Nice way to spend the Christmas. We did all our family get together last night. Today it is just me, the wife, the dog, the cats and the chickens.
  9. Didn't anybody tell her? Didn't anybody see? Sundays on the phone to Monday... Tuesdays on the phone to me...
  10. Because if you are going to make a rule about required scans/photos showing labels, let's ensure it is clear when this applies. I'm not sure why that is such a difficult concept for you. Is it always - sometimes - whenever we choose a scenario? Just trying to make this so even when a new member reads it to comply, they clearly understand the intent. Deary You never call me Deary anymore. You never give me your money... You only give me your funny papers... And in the middle of negotiations... you break down I never give you my number... I only give you my situation... And in the middle of investigation, I break down...
  11. If nothing else, it's grounds for a weeks vacation as evidenced by the Trey Canon strike. Who was selling the PGX slabs? VT Comics (Phil)
  12. Where do we draw the line? Would referencing the grade that a dealer gave it previously, if say that dealer had done a paid appraisal, then off-limits? I think the line CGC has already drawn is fine. Raw or CGC graded books only. Let's show our hosts the repect they deserve our we could lose our buying and selling forums entirely.
  13. well, if that's what he posted in his sales thread I stand corrected. That certainly looks like a PGX graded book to me. Well to be honest it is not what he posted. He cropped all the sides of the picture to hide the label and the bottom posts of slab. hmmm.. so let me get this straight. He engaged in a sales thread in which the rules state no PGX books are to be offered. He posted a picture of the book in which he cropped all the sides of the picture to (presumably) hide the label and the bottom posts of slab. He never mentioned that the book was PGX graded. I'm pretty sure I know what the reality was here, and I might characterize what he did as foolish, but it's way out of bounds to call him dishonest. Especially when the circumstances give him plausible denial. What circumstances? You are the only one that is having problems with the definition of the word "raw". Reminds me of Clinton having problems with the definition of the word "is". For all you know he has deslabbed the books and the buyer would have received them in mylar (that's what I would have done if I had a PGX book I wanted to sell). He may have been too lazy to rescan the deslabbed book and just decided to crop the scan he had. I don't think this is the case, and I think he miscalculated his whole approach here (personally, if he thought someone would figure the book was PGX slabbed and ascribe better value, he's wrong). My point here and the one I made in CG (where you gleefully joined the circle jerk), is that I don't think he was necesarrily violating the rule the way he was selling, And again, you appear to be the only one making that argument. What part of NO PGX BOOKS FOR SALE ON THE CGC BOARD is hard to understand? and the rules need to be little more specific and clarify how one needs to offer books to eliminate any ambiguity as to whether they are offering a PGX book. The rule is clear, Phil has run up against this rule in the past apparently.
  14. well, if that's what he posted in his sales thread I stand corrected. That certainly looks like a PGX graded book to me. Well to be honest it is not what he posted. He cropped all the sides of the picture to hide the label and the bottom posts of slab.
  15. BTW in case you missed it...this is one of the books that were for sale. Now I am no carnival employee, but that looks like a PGX graded book to me.
  16. Of course I would, I'm fat. And if I am being totally honest, in doing so I would be dishonest. Same as if I was speeding (and I have).
