mysterio

Should be a great show, sorry I can’t be up there for it!

I’m still surprised I got it, but I also blew past what I’d originally promised myself my limit would be. Ended up at about 3x (an admittedly patchy set of data on) GPA.

When I saw this one come up in the Clink auction I knew I had to go after it. Did I overpay? Probably. Do I care?

No idea why this book was put in the "assorted" section, and I likely overpaid, but it's not every day you get a shot at a White Mountain Amazing Adventures.

Saw some pics on Facebook. Keaton looked good, it’s nice when a guest dresses for the occasion and doesn’t look like they just rolled out of bed or are entering witness protection (looking at you John Cusack). Crowds looked ok on Saturday, but venue looked small.

Was going to be responsible and not bid on Clink this month, then saw this book last night and threw what I thought would surely be a non-winning bid. Pretty nice upgrade to my 6.0.

Was pretty surprised to get this one for my bid.

I’ll be very curious to hear any reports.

And signed by Louise Simonson, no less.

Are the savings that spectacular?

Ok, I am closing the thread. I won't have time to create invoices this evening, I'm afraid, and after a crazy week I am traveling this weekend. I will issue invoices either Sunday evening or no later than Monday. So the following buyers will expect to be hearing from me shortly: @electricprune @N e r V @jimjum12 @lizards2 @Chuck Gower @Ricksneatstuff @n2wdw @PopKulture and @Nuttzo Thanks to everyone who purchased, lurked, or theadkrapped!

Thread closes this evening!

That does explain a few things.

The dates we were told are February 15-16. First show of the year for us, and I couldn't think of a better way to kick things off.

Last call on this thread 10% off on any remaining books, and offers welcome on package deals! I will keep this thread open about another day, and will start processing invoices in the meantime. Don't be shy, let me know if you have any interest in anything left, you might be surprised!

Take all the Millie the Model books for $37 ($49 individually) And, at long last, that's the last book in the thread. I will do my best to get a recap of everything remaining up by the end of tomorrow, and will happily entertain offers in the meantime!

Millie the Model #122 G+/VG- -- asking $7 + shipping Just a bit of moisture best seen on back cover. Nice color and gloss on front cover, everything well attached at both staples.

Millie the Model #118 G- -- asking $2 + shipping Fairly heavy moisture damage, but otherwise the book is solid, complete, and everything is attached at both staples.

Millie the Model #114 G -- asking $4 + shipping The usual moisture, with a cover detached at the top staple and barely hanging on at the bottom staple. Interior is fine, everything well attached at both staples.

Millie the Model #110 G -- asking $5 + shipping See the description for #109 above.

Millie the Model #109 G -- asking $5 + shipping Solid book with no interior problems, complete with everything attached at both staples. Moisture with a bit of chipping are the worst of it.

Pair of Nurse Doyle added to your stack!

Didn't think that'd last long.

Millie the Model #108 VG- -- asking $7 + shipping Solid copy, everything is well attached at both staples and the pages are fresh. Moisture at upper right cover only (upper left bc), pages aren't much affected.
