  1. Any news on when the Forbidden Planet will be processed?

     

    (shrug) Haven't heard from them yet and placed my order on 10/3. I got an email confirmation from them that day, but the order hasn't been processed, no shipping cost has been given and my cc hasn't been charged yet.

     

    As long as I am not the only one!

  2. O, there ain't gonna be no storm! :sumo:

     

    Here's my house,and this is the early stages of Hurricane Sandy here in Norfolk,Va,...The worst high tides are going to be tonight at 9pm...and the worst tomorrow morning 9am.

    Stay safe! My cousin is down there and sent me the same type of pics. Do your best to keep it away from NOVA if you can.

     

    I will be heading north Tues/Weds to come help out with the Catastrophe. Looks like im going to have my hands full!

  3. >>I would love to see your speculation on the Phantom variant!<<

     

    I honestly do not know what you mean, friend.

     

    ??

     

    rephrase

     

    Phantom Variant Bedlam

     

     

    why you think they will increase in value? ??

     

    (%) probability that they will go up? ??

    what price do you think they will achieve? ??

    how long we should hold it? short or long term

    additional notes:?

  4. Just made the rounds calling the stores. Most are keeping them for their customers, wont know till later in the week, or aren't open yet! Im optimistic still though! I will find one that isn't $20 each.

  5. less than the first printing.

     

     

    More than NYCC

     

    More than detroit

     

    More than Third eye

     

    More than FP

     

     

    Hate to be sketchy, BUT I have rules to follow...

     

    So print run over 1000. It is divided by 20 stores. Guess 100-150 a store. Id say around 2000-3000 print run...On the extreme I would say 200 each for a 4000 print run.

     

    Good guess?

     

     

  6. Well I am finally going to roll the dice having done forum and reddit research... with the Double Midnight MLP variant. http://www.dmcomics.com/ . I think this one will be hot to trot. The Midtown variant, although still looking popular, smacks too much of self promotion in my humble opinion. Nothing too crazy but I am usually happy to speculate on something I think will net me double or better.

     

    If your looking to roll the dice, then you have chosen correctly. Derpy is a fan favorite and the Double Midnight will defiantly be more sought after Derpy Midtown. However, don't discount Larry's Variant and Jetpacks Variant. The Rough Rider edition will do alright, but the really deal will be each of their covers separately. Many people will try to complete this set. Also if the mystery cover has Luna on it, that will probably outsell all other covers.

     

    How do you get the mystery cover?

  7. 4) - Hard to give up a 3 Bedroom 3 Parking spot rent controlled apartment at the beach. Here's my backyard. A little overcast today but the sun is starting to come out.

    I miss California! Guess I will just have to go to the beach here in South Florida!

     

    Great View!

     

     

  8. This is just too funny. If I had a dollar for every time you go on and on in a selling thread about just how hard it was to find a particular exclusive in top grade, and just how many raw copies you had to sift through in order to find true 9.8 candidates to offer to board members, I would be a very rich man. You are right, though...I'm so concerned about selling my books that I'm laying ground work weeks in advance. I guess I learned from the "best". (thumbs u

     

    If I see a bad print run I call it for what it is - I don't BS about print runs that don't have issues - Try again.

     

     

    Riiiight...

     

    So you call out print runs that are bad where you are still able to offer raw 9.8s on the forum, but I call out this print run as being bad when you are unwilling to label them as any better than "NM", and I'm the one who is full of BS...? lol

     

    Please take your personal Vendetta elsewhere. Thanks.

     

    I like Bedlam. I am here to read about Bedlam. I am not to here to listen to you whine about not liking Dre.
