    Looking for a specific Uncle Scrooge story

    in Golden Age Comic Books

    Posted · Edited by Black Lantern

    Hi, not sure if this was a Golden Age story, but a friend asked me if I could help him search for an Uncle Scrooge story he remembers reading as a kid. In that story a Ghost steals all the money of Scrooge and builds an underground castle or something similar. Does that ring any bells? Any help is very appreciated! Thanks!

    Hi, since my last two deals with big keys here on the boards (one sale and one trade, I can provide references) were so successful, I would like to try again. This time no trades, at least for now.

    Shipping: Free shipping for GS X-Men #1 to USA, Canada and EU countries (I'm from Europe). $36 (rest is on me) for B&B #28 to USA, Canada and EU countries. Other countries please ask before posting anything like :takeit:
    Payment: PayPal

    House Of Shame or Probationary members: No, thanks

    If you post a :takeit:in the thread or PM, you get the book. If there is some negotiation going on with you and me and somebody else posts a :takeit:he wins and you lose. Don't start negotiations after posting :takeit:,it means you agree on the price and all of my terms.

    Returns: No returns unless there is a really good reason for it. Don't commit to buying if you are not sure of it.

    Please keep in mind, that I'm from Europe and therefore won't be able to answer you right away, because of the time difference.

    Question about payment by installments with PayPal

    in Comics General

    Posted

    Hi,
    since I have never gotten payments via PayPal in installments I would like to hear from the ones who already have some experience with this please.
    Especially if the package gets lost, is PayPal even able to connect the different Payments to one transaction? What would I need to do so that the whole amount is connected to this transaction? Any other things I'm missing and should be aware of?

    Thanks in advance for any help on this topic!

    Update: The sale for Detective Comics fell through, so still considering a trade for a trade value of $4500. Please see below what I'm looking for. I do have some nice offers already but I would love to have a little bit more diversity in the offers, I'm missing a few modern keys so far. If that doesn't work out I will still consider all other offers, so please do send any offers. Thanks!

    I would like to trade these two (also separately is possible) books for stuff with lesser value, which would be easier for me to sell in my store in Austria. The books should be keys or at least desirable and if possible each have a value below $1000. It wouldn't be a problem if one is a little over $1000 but we could figure this out later.
    The trade value would be $11000 for PL #17 (a 3.5 just sold at Heritage for $11400)  and $4500 for DC #233.

    The details with shipping could be worked out later but I would prefer a well known Member or at least long time Member of this Message Board. I know, I wasn't very active since the Message Board was revamped. I started my own business and didn't have much time, but I'm a Member since 2008 and did many deals throughout the years here and also participated in the X-Mas Raffle and Secret Santa for many years.

    It would be great if we could work something out.

    Last 4.0 sale was in March 2020 for $8400. Before that, another 4.0 sold in November 2018 for $7200 and a 3.0 sold in February 2019 for $8050. I'm asking $8000 $7500 $7300
    Btw, the tape is gone, it's just the residue you see on the cover. Book has not been pressed and has an interesting History. It was one of these US-Comic books, which were sent to the US Soldiers who were stationend in Germany and Austria after WWII. This one went to Munich and a kid held on to it (and some other books) for his entire life until he sold the collection during his 70s some years ago.

    Let's try this again!

    Shipping: Free shipping to USA, Canada and EU countries (I'm from Europe). Other countries please ask before posting anything like :takeit:
    Payment: PayPal

    House Of Shame or Probationary members: No, thanks

    If you post a :takeit:in the thread or PM, you get the book, if the time stamp is on your side. If there is some negotiation going on with you and me and somebody else posts a :takeit:he wins and you lose. It's all about the time stamp. Don't start negotiations after posting :takeit:,it means you agree on the price and all of my terms.

    Returns: No returns unless there is a really good reason for it. Don't commit to buying if you are not sure of it.

    Price drop
    Phantom Lady $8000 (probably last price drop)   Changed my mind, a 3.0 sold in February 2019 for $8050 on Comiclink. And there is another 3.0 on the boards right now for $7500. So $8500 and free shipping is not that bad.
    Detective Comics $4800
