  1. Best I've been able to figure is it went something like this... 1) Krypto sold Dr. Frank a book that was graded 8.5 and pressed 2) Dr. Frank cracked and presented as a 9.2 in the sales forum 3) Krypto called Dr. Frank on it 4) Dr. Frank lost his mind and everything else trying to realign the stars, reverse time, and explain away the fact that those were not the dorids that we were looking for...
  2. How the hell did I miss the first sixty-eight pages of this thread?? I spend too much time in the sales thread. There should be a mailing list/notification process for threads like these Truly unfortunate situation. You never want to see something as simple as a funny book or something as common as money get in the way of credibility, integrity, or trustworthiness. Too bad.
  3. Overdue kudos for a few how have sold me books or bought from me recently Big thanks to SOT for a nice UXM #99 slab and raw DD #8, both quality per usual from John (Thumbs u Mad kudos to pickycollector for a nicely graded raw DD #63 to daken2626 for some dirt cheap modern slabs over the last couple of weeks! Foolkiller, thanks for the nice lot of marvel from your last sales thread Thanks dudeman5000 for a couple nice UXM for the registry run! Also, thanks to those that made purchases in my sales thread last week The books are in the mail guys! zuckuss2003 MikeinSF highfivephase fraxs cloudofwit ernster TupennyConan RikkiB
  4. I have a bunch of moderns to post. May do some lots, but mostly < $3. All are X-men or Spidey. Will start in a bit.
  5. Posting some HG X-men BA and a few other marvals tomorrow in the GA/SA/BA thread (thumbs u

  7. Mad kudos (with some being slightly overdue) to the following for some sweet books The boardie formally known as SOT...Cobra Commander for a bunch of super nice X-men slabs G.A.tor for a very nice grail purchase (worship) Foolkiller for some nice TOS books. Going way back on this one BK EggsAckley for keeping an eye out and finally hooking me up with a very nice Cherry #1 slab + a great deal on a large lot of x-men slabs (worship)
  8. Have some modern spideys and some more dup x-men to post at some point this weekend
  9. I really don't think they said you can't use the personal option. What they said was you can not ask someone to pay you in that way. Why is everyone making this hard. Just stop advertising it and everyone will keep using it anyway Right on the money (literally). Here's how it plays out going forward. 1. Paypal gets listed as an option, minus the personal option. 2. Seller states the price he wants for his drek. 3. Buyer pm's low-ball-totally-unreasonable offer to seller. 4. Seller counters with a pm of a more realistic price. 5. Buyer responds with another low-ball offer (no longer totally-unreasonable) and offers payment via paypal personal to save the seller 3%. 6. Seller agrees and buyer posts "takeit" 7. Buyer gets drek a week later and swears never to buy drek in a drunken stupor again. (alternate/variant version of this timeline has seller responding back to buyer's low-ball-totally-unreasonable offer with more realistic price and payment via paypal personal)
  10. Can the mods read PMs to confirm sales agreements through PMs? I don't want to question anyone's honesty, but we are talking about putting someone on the probation list without any public evidence that an agreement of a sale even existed. Branget's been around a long time, but this does introduce the possiblity for the probation list to be abused. Did you let him know this was a Presale before he sent the funds, or after? The mods are not going to read PMs or get involved in sales disputes. If the buyer disputes the facts as branget has laid them out and protests being on the probation list, he has a voice...and a keyboard (thumbs u Otherwise, I'm with Ryan and Fuelman...he belongs on a list. Not only did he back out of a deal, but he did so in poor form.
  11. Have a few x-men dups and some lower grade spideys that I'll be blowing through over the next few days in the GA/SA/BA thread. Same as before, they'll be cheap...so get there early.
  12. gonna pop it out? Nah, with a gal like Cherry...better to keep it in the plastic
  13. Picked this one up last week from another board member... Finally got this one in today from the Feb Heritage auction...

  15. Picked this up in a multi-book deal at a local show yesterday. I know it's from the reprint run, but it's flawless. Not a spine tick, crease, or color break any where on the book. Pages are bone white!
  16. The last of my SA/BA spidey's will get posted over the next day or so in BA/SA. Will also run another variants thread in the mod thread. Like before, books will be priced to move (thumbs u
  17. Will start a new thread to sell some more of my ASM collection tomorrow. Have about 35 books to post, including a 25, 28, 42, 43, 121, 122, and 129. (thumbs u
  18. Why not go for a rarer issue - a Hulk 181 CGC .5? Where the were you about 10 o'clock last night!! I've been looking for a new financial advisor, you don't moonlight do you?
  19. After much deliberation, I've decided that I am bored with Spidey and will begin to sell off parts of my collection so that I can have a go at putting together an X-men run. I have ASM #5-Current. I also have runs of just about every other solo Spidey title. Most low number ASM's are lower grades (5.0-7.0). I also have all variants (except 300 chromium) for all of the runs. Will start listing tomorrow night or Sunday night.
