If you look at the reply page below the icons it says MAKE POST change it to "using html code" and that should do the trick

Thats all for today. I hope you are enjoying these.

Sometimes, the back covers are even nicer than the fronts!! Congrats on the pickup

Great, great books Bullet - thanks for sharing them!! Are you trying to complete the entire Four Color series, or just the early books?? Psycho that I am, the entire run. I figure it should take about twenty years. Five to ten years for the first 75%, then 10-20 years for the rest. There is at least one complete run out there that I know of, however I am trying to put it together in VF or better. An impossible task, I realize, but I will not start settling for lower graded copies until I run out of nice, tremendous eye appeal copies to pick up which I am assuming will take at least the next five or so years. For me, there are no must haves, so I will not put pressure on myself to pick up certain issues over others and settle on quality. I pick them up as they become available and my budget allows.

This is such an underappreciated run for exactly that reason. Maybe it is too eclectic for most people's tastes, but that is one of the draws for me. I am scanning my books currently so I will add as I go along.

For Sale??

OK Here are a few. If I have time I will post some more

Watched it all the time

Mark, Stay far away from this guy. Bad news. I am sure someone will provide you with the link. You could just do a search for gio72 and I am sure you will find it.

Just a question, Was Ian given the opportunity to make a better offer before you got Metropolis involved. It seems to me that if I was Ian I would have sharpened my pencil a little more and upped my offer rather than miss out on a bonafide opportunity to acquire arguably the toughest book in his quest

I have an ethical question for both Vince and Ian Which one of you was contacted first by the seller? If it was you Vince, then you have every right to buy the book and maximize the profit, even if it is simply by holding IAN over a barrel. However, if it was IAN first and you second, and you knew that, the right thing to do IMO would have been to simply state to the seller that he would probably be best served by dealing with IAN. Why must every book be a opportunity to squeeze a profit out of it? You have thousands of books that you can worry about maximizing profit on. IMO every once in a while, at least in my business, I do the right thing by my customer regardless of profit margin beacuse sometimes the right thing pays you back more profitably than the profit thing Just an obsevation
