  1. How can I be a troll if you responded to my serious post with "two bucks"? Hey don't let me stop you from showing off your books they are very sweet! I am seriously impressed. If I had alot of money I would try to get some Timelys as well but as for my situation now I just buy some common Silver Age books. And Bonds why would you tell me to go get a job dude? I am a student and I'm avoiding the real world for as long as possible. Sorry if I offended you dude the two bucks comment just got to me...bad day I guess. Please by all means post more of your books.

    I wrote "2 bucks" because I'm pissed as hell at paypal, not you!

     

    Going back a few years I was bidding on an ebay auction and the seller insisted I use paypal, so I signed up. I was told all charges would go to my Mastercard. After giving that info they asked for my bank checking account info for varification, so I gave it to them. That day I used paypal for the $1150.00 auction I won. After I send that info the paypal invoice says, "The amount has now just been transferred out of your checking account, thank you!"

     

    WHAT!?! My checking account only had $700 in it! [!@#%^&^]! So I ran to the bank to make a deposit to cover it and all my other checks that I had already written so they would not bounce. Basically paypal lied to me stating the charges would appear on my credit card invoice, but instead they zapped it out of my checking account that instant. I will NEVER use paypal again and I terminated my account with them. It's not worth those kinds of headaches! 893naughty-thumb.gif

  2. With all due respect to Timely cover fans:

     

    Now, don't get me wrong. These Schomberg covers have incredible detail and wonderful eye appeal; however for some reason after I've seen about 10 of the Marvel Mystery covers (and others) it's almost as though they have become homogonized. I soon cannot remember the difference between covers as they are so similar in design and action (especially with all the Marvel Mystery red backgrounds) so for me that takes away some of their appeal.

     

    I think that's why I enjoyed MLJ covers and I feel they are the best from the golden age; several different artists would do work on books in a year's time. In fact, I think I enjoy the later Marvel Mystery covers the most; around the Syd Shores era of the late 1940's. Who knows.

     

    Timely, if those are your books, you certainly have one hell of a collection, my friend. I'm sure you have them all insured! I don't think I know of anyone that has a better run of high grade CGC early Timelys than you! Do you know of anyone?

     

    Happy New Year!

     

    I do not know of any collector that has a better CGC run than I do. Naturally Verzyl's MH Timely collection would put mine to shame, but he is not planning on selling them or CGC'ing them in his lifetime, I've asked!

     

    I keep them at the bank in safety-deposit boxes.
