  1. Cant find my post but if you go back a bunch of pages you will see where I posted about finding one last year. That is probably my best "find" in terms of value but it was through LetGo.
  2. UXmen 2 and 3 are getting reprinted later in 2020? Time to sell my copies and rebuy later!
  3. Thanks! That is the ballpark I was thinking
  4. Main issue is bottom left front cover. Would benefit from a press but wouldnt we all. No scanner, so took some phone shots.
  5. Picked up this Bowen today for a good price. Came with the box even (flattened)
  6. Lot of 15 books. All are pretty nice, close to brand new. Some minor edge wear. You wont be disappointed. These are the first 15 released I believe. There are 2 more out with another being released around April. This collection will ultimately be all his Duck work as I understand! Selling as a lot and asking $15 per book shipped, total $225. Price is shipped via media mail. I have not been super active selling on the boards of late, but had a good record when I did and a long ebay track record(yecul2) so hopefully you can buy with confidence!
  7. Follow up on my own find. Back from the frame shop! Not on the wall just yet.
  8. I assume the writing hurts the value but I love it. Adds something and not too valuable a book where you have regrets. Great finds.
  9. Thank you! Super lucky to get it at an incredible price. Dont plan to sell at all but there's definitely a HA listing I plan to track.
  10. The Gargantuan kit is amazing. Nice pickups! Got this today off LetGo. Has some wear but still pretty nice. Plan to get it framed!
  11. Estate sale pickups from this morning. Low grade but that's ok! The estate sale was a little annoying with their signage and pricing. They had a couple waaayyyy overpriced Supermans and a Ghost Rider (GA) in a case by the register. Rest of the books were in another room. Just about all were Disney books. These, some WDC&S, Dell Mickeys, etc. Maybe a dozen other random titles. Sign says $2 each. Only later did they say there was a second sign that the Disneys were $10 each. Left the WDC&S and they were super rough and not ones I was after.
  12. Agree but he had 4 figures and I took em all. The motu cards are neat. They depict an episode basically.
  13. Estate sale. Three had price stickers on the book. Two came off ok. but not the 3rd. Any tips? Also got some toys and cards at the flea market. Not a bad day.
  14. Small lot from LetGo. Pretty rough condition but will look good in mylar!
  15. 1. If you are dropping thousands on a book then hopefully you are reading descriptions and are innformed. 2. It is obviously intentionally deceptive (sales marketing of you prefer) to deslab and bury the lead. They are providing the information but repackaging to shift focus. I dont pass judgement but I dont think that take is inaccurate. An interesting experiment. What would it have got stabbed vs deslabbed? never know. It presents very well.
  16. Estate Sales often have organized lists and certainly have organized and set start times. You show up early and wait. First come first in the door and often they control entry to limit crowding. Showing up early is more like lining up for Black Friday. Garage sales are looser and privately organized with less of a gateway. Many sellers set up annually or less frequent and may not know people will show up so they are unprepared to respond. So showing up early means you are willing to encroach on someone's property before the stated invitation time for the sake of a potential deal. 1. you don't necessarily know what they are selling and 2. even if you do the asking price is rarely known. Often people let you in and certainly the competition will go there. But, IMO, this is a far different thing from estate sales. You CAN go early to garage sales. It should be considered jerky in most cases. But... stuff and resale so screw it all. tldr early to estate sales is fine. Early to garage sales is usually a jerky move.
  17. Great lot and glad the deal worked out. Saving the gas and time is a plus! if thats too rough to be a keeper let me know!
  18. He is looking for an additional discount figuring you would prefer to toss him a few bucks to avoid paying for more shopping and etc. Full refund and run away from him.
