I just PM'd 1Cool for his address. I'm sending him the ASM #298 and #299 from this thread. I'm leaving both my offers up for people to take them as gifts (whether I eventually get a strike or not), and then bowing out of the regular part of this thread. I'll still pop in and put up freebies for anyone to just take because I'm a selfish greedy fruck who offers such little in return for what's been given to me around here. Peace, Chip

I have inventory that my business owns, books I sell on consignment, and books I own personally. Peace, Chip

You tell me?! Deflection. Answer the question. Peace, Chip

Those pictures shouldn't be in this thread. They have nothing to do with anything here. Peace, Chip

That collection has nothing to do with my personal books for sale, nor this thread. Harvey, you really think my offers have been ? You think I haven't given anything back to the thread? Peace, Chip

They go all the way up to 202 as far as a straight run, I think. I'll go over them more after I sleep. Peace, Chip

All I meant was that I only have certain things I can allot to this thread. I'm not posting 40 different offers until someone takes something. It wasn't meant in a hateful way, just a matter-of-fact way. I don't have the time to continually switch up my offers in this thread. Peace, Chip

Drove about 6 hours round trip today to acquire a 2,300+ book collection from Craigslist. It's the farthest I've driven for anything since I moved to Myrtle Beach 8 years ago. . Needless to say, I'm exhausted and my back hurts. It was worth it, though. Peace, Chip

Ah well...it's a solid offer. I'm not switching it up. Peace, Chip

I've been gone pretty much all day. Did anyone take my new offer? I don't see anything. Peace, Chip

April had fried bologna. I had cream cheese on toast. We're weird. As far as other favorites, I like all of the above...turkey, hoagies, tacos, burgers, etc. Two years ago I was 185, now I'm 235. I just need to stop eating. I love all food, and that's dangerous. Anyway, here's the offer change...a large chunk of Jack Kirby's Kamandi. 25 issues, and most of it is well above "reader" quality (for those that didn't care for my last offering). Issue #'s 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 19, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, 31, 33, 34, 37, 39, 43, 46 and 56. < joel > "Whaddaya think, sirs?" < / joel > Peace, Chip

Fine, I'll switch it up. I thought they were cool books and I thought I offered enough of them where the value was there. My mistake. Let me eat lunch and then post something else that's "socially acceptable." Peace, Chip

Damn! Great find! Peace, Chip

...but again, why is there a sense of urgency in the first place above and beyond what the rules state? You want faster turnover? Change the rules to reflect that. Thread moving too slow for you? Change the rules to reflect that. As I've stated before, cut all "chatter" posts other than the posting/claiming of offers and nearly all of the problems in this thread go away. No one will know what others want, and if nothing is claimed than the offeror has to switch it up as much as he can before enough time passes where he'll get a strike. Peace, Chip

...but Ducky DID switch up his offer. You can't say there wasn't an effort there. Does anyone here really think that ASM #298 & 299 are books? Seriously? Peace, Chip

I'm sorry, but 1Cool and I saying that we're itching to take it once the 48 hours has passed does not stop someone new from coming into the thread and saying, 'Wow, awesome books." and scooping up the McSpideys before the 48 hours is up. Urgency, smurgency. If someone wants the books they'll take them. If they go unclaimed it does NOT mean it's a bad offer to begin with. The participant sample size in here is very small. Peace, Chip

Okay, here we go... Starting at the top : Little Lulu #148 and #150 (1960) Hot Stuff #14 (1959) Classics Illustrated #83 (1965) Racket Squad #24 (1957) Flash Gordon #5 (1967) Wyatt Earp #25 (1959) Gorgo #4 (1961) Mysterious Suspense #1 (1968) Four Color #885 (1958) Quick-Trigger Western #16 (1957) Young Romance #49 (1952) Heroic Comics #70 (1952) Wild Bill Hickok #7 (1949) The Jaguar #15 (1963) ...but wait, there's more! Pinocchio #2 (1963) Thirteen #29 (1971) Brain Boy #6 (1963) The Outer Limits #17 (1968) Tarzan #178 (1968) MARS Patrol #3 (1966) MARS Patrol #6 (1968) Space Adventures #3 (1967) Fightin' Army #26 (1958) Fightin' Army #66 (1965) Battlefield Action #20 (1958) Battlefield Action #21 (1958) Thanks for looking. Peace, Chip

Don't get yer panties in a knot...it's not superhero stuff. Peace, Chip

I think I might bust the Golden Age cherry on this thread tomorrow... Peace, Chip

Yes. The current offer is still the current ofer. It's NOT the 47 Hr and 53 min rule. *sigh* Come on, were you really going to stick me for 7 minutes? Peace, Chip

Give 'til it hurts, baby. My offer will have to be tomorrow morning, just so everyone knows. April's already asleep and all the comics are in the bedroom on my side of the bed. If I woke her up to pull some books there'd be pain tonight AND tomorrow...I can't take that. I'm old. Peace, Chip

Peace, Chip

Everyone is over-thinking this stuff. Not all offers are for everyone. If you put out a good offer after taking a good offer, you've done your job whether it gets claimed or not. About 3% of the forum members even look at this thread and the percentage who participate is far less than that. Also, when I say Ducky will be "bailed out" that just means there IS someone who wants the McSpideys. Me. I'm not taking them to bail Ducky out...hell, I don't even know the guy. I'm taking them because they're great books and I can certainly use them. Peace, Chip

If I remember to get back on here, he'll get bailed out. Peace, Chip

How's this one, condition-wise? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wonder-Woman-1-1987-NM-White-Pages-George-Perez-Artwork-/221486234639?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item33919bbc0f Peace, Chip Yessir (thumbs u PM me your address. It's yours. Peace, Chip
