I cannot state this enough - everyone worrying about this is overthinking it. Call your tax guy.

C'mon, you know everyone panicking here doesn't have "a tax guy". 1040EZ4LYFE!

Here’s the lovely piece Gary Groth did on her directly after her death.

There are few people for whom I am looking forward to reading their obituary. Groth is one of them. What a colossal individual_without_enough_empathy.

Top this, I dare you.

odd thing just happened, anyone have any ideas WTF? Usually these are one off oddities but it is so interesting

Tried to end a listing and it responded "listing cannot be ended".  I have no offers out on the item...it is some Batgirl issues. They just announced Batgirl and I got "make an offer" on 2 of my items, both Batgirl issues. So I decided to offer one to the watcher and end one to hold just in case. Ebay say NO SOUP FOR YOU!  So I went out and tried again, listing cannot be ended. So I raised the price to $100 from $10, which it allowed of course. So why can't I end it? It relists in 6 days and some hours.

In fact I cannot end any of my listings.    Is there now a limit on how many listings you can end in a given period?

I'm not sure if this is the issue with you, but you can't end a listing that has a pending offer (from either end). You or the buyer need to definitively decline the offer, and then you should be able to end it.

I showed a friend my copy of Batman #3 a few years ago. Heavy book. Know what he did?

"Duh-nuh-nuh-BAT-MAN!" Totally ignorant of what he was looking at.

Just concluded a great deal with Jim. Great books, great price, bombproof packaging. Would definitely do it again!

It's just the wrong photo. The slab back clearly says "Avengers 47".

This thread will go on for another day or so. as Dave, at Bender's, owes ME trade for a change, and I may be the only person alive who knows which pile the better romance comics are buried under.

When you come across that Love Tales #51 from Atlas, be sure to add it to your stack, as it's a guaranteed sale

Top notch seller, book was packed like it was going to a war zone!

Woah...this one wont show up on GPA, but this book's rise continues... $2,738 for a CGC 4.5.

 

Yeah, I got beat in the last few seconds on that one. If any of you are looking at that result and thinking "Boy, I should sell my copy!" feel free to PM me!
