Gozzlebobber

thanks sir

Turn that frown upside down and send me a scan of that Hero for Hire #1 sir

I wouldnt agree with banning them, because honestly I believe I have done them the right way. I have so many prizes above the 50 asking price per box (other 10 is shipping), if you look at modern prices around here the prizes I have thrown in above value of a box alone are : Saga 1-7 NM+ Revival 1-6 NM+, Manhattan projects 1 NM+, I have 4 sets of Nowhere men 1 and 2 NM+, 2 SS books 9.4 and 9.6, a 9.6 modern batman variant, a 9.8 ASM 692 9.8 fan expo varaint ($200 book), and many more prizes which I sure I am forgetting off the top of my head. I have several other books in each box I have thrown in on top of what is pictured, about 100 ASM books from 100-300 have been added to peoples boxes as well, including an ASM 239 MG, and an ASM 194 MG. So if a person is unfortinate not to get a big prize as shown above there are smaller books which are FMV for them add up to approximnately $50. I am not looking to dump any crappy books in the thread. I think it speaks volumes to the prizes I am giving out that 7 boxes in my 2nd round were sold to people who purchased boxes in the first. If there is any better way I could be handling these threads for mystery boxes, please let me know. I agree... in no way should they be banned. I feel that the idea behind them is a lot of fun. You (Venom) and few other sellers have went above and beyond giving value to your lots. Miraclemet hit on the head, just make sure you know who you are buying from and have a general idea as to what you might be getting. And just don't "expect" to win big...that way if you do (win big)... then its that much more of a surprise

All that said... the BUYER should realize that in the majority of all cases, a mystery box scenario is used to get rid of bulk, drek and abundant Valiants, Topps, Malibu etc and assorted other examples of sheeet. Rule of thumb on mystery boxes... buy them for fun not value.

Please remember to not include sig-lines in the PL list. Sincerely, Gubment Lacky Pov krap... will fix

Just a quick note telling the boards I've notified the boardie below of his impending probation nomination from unpaid purchases in my RUPP'S 444 PUPPY 333 SCREAMIN' 222 APOCALYPSE 111 sale back in December 2012. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=281513&Number=6244126#Post6244126 Babygorilla's purchase history was addressed here two weeks ago by bb8 (Buddy) and myself here... http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Board=80&Number=6321394&Searchpage=2&Main=163911&Words=Bio-Rupp&topic=0&Search=true#Post6321394 His 30 days has elapsed and his 72 hour "seperate notification via PM " clock has started on my end as of today.

Your welcome sir Sorry it took me a few extra days to mail your stuff. Enjoy the freebies and please check out my next thread... hopefully the service will improve on my end

I like the way you write

Wouldn't happen to be babygorilla would it? Indeed it would sir! I too am waiting for payment for some sales to him from about three weeks ago. We have to give them 30 days, then a seperate PM, then wait a couple days for them to respond, then we can pursue PL proceedings. With any luck, hes just been off the boards and got busy and will come back and pay us both

Wouldn't happen to be babygorilla would it?

Two boardies enter... one boardie leaves

"we had decided to meet in Charlotte at the airport during the layover" Here is where it hurts and I can feel Brock's pain. "we had decided" The seller should have at least kept this appointment. He could have then decided not to sell....which would have been just as much of a waste of Brock's time... but a least a little more stand-up-ish.

Man the boards are crazy right now with problem members... Whats got put in the water in newbie land?
