  1. I doubt that I will ever have as much as you guys but my wall is steadily growing. Yes, I know that Aquaman is not level, but I'm moving out in 2 months, so I didn't think it was really that big of a deal for everything to be level.

    I like the super man one in the middle : (thumbs u

  2. Re: mandatory return policy...

     

    To get the top seller 20% FVF discount... Yes.

     

    Wow eBay sure is getting ridiculous. Although With the current policy you pretty much have to accept returns cause all a buyer needs to do is open an item not as.described case and it's almost always found in favor of the buyer.

  3. Oh I know. And this is a special eBay bucks. I expect you will see quite a few GPA highs in April. Much like last year. Then the boards can spend all summer analyzing it. lol

     

    I'm not too happy to hear that Ebay is ending the Ebay bucks program in Canada :screwy:

     

    I know. Bastards.

     

    Wonder why. Increasing fees, cutting benefits, forcing sellers down certain paths (ie: mandatory accepting returns, one day ship, etc.)....

     

    I think eBay is out for a popularity contest. lol

     

    Ebay is forcing a mandatory return policy?

  4. Looks like the print run wasnt big enough.... looks to be sold out at Diamond

     

    Yep, I saw that report on Bleeding Cool.

     

    It's a bit deceiving though. Image does a very slight overprint on their books. When there's a rush of reorders after the FOC, say when a bunch of speculators place preorders with the likes of Midtown, etc. after the FOC, then the book will be sold out at Diamond. I think this happens with most Image #1s and it's mostly due to speculators coming late to the party.

     

    Good news

  5. Hey Strangers! I'm a huge fan of the show. I'm helping my brother out with some marketing as he is selling his entire Walking Dead 1-100 collection to pay for his future wedding on ebay as it ends this Sunday at 10p.m. (EST) during the season finale. You can click on the link here to bid on it if anyone is interested:

    He may consider reasonable offers off the bay, just message him. He has 100% positive feedback.

     

    Thanks!

     

    Not the right spot for that but thanks for the heads up

  6. If they are well bagged and boarded (meaning that there are not varying sizes and the bags are not bigger than the boards/comics) then you can pile them up to 20 or 25 in one pile. At that point I wrap them in newsprint. I wrap the bundle in big bubble bubble wrap on all sides so that immobile. Place them in a larger box where you can have a bed of peanuts or a bed of bubble wrap. Place the bundles side by side at the bottom, fill with peanuts, add additional bundle(s) fill with peanuts and you should be ready to ship.

     

    I've done this with raw and slabbed books with great success. Slabbed books, though, I don't put as many in a pile (maybe 5 or 6) and I only wrap them with bubble wrap and not newsprint.

     

     

    Thanks that makes sense to me!

  7. NWM is hotter than ToT and Revival right now CBT. Who knows if that will sustain?

     

    Also, that auction for 400 last night, past 256, there were only two bidders.

     

    i agree with that, i was said to be all doom and gloom for stating that its overvalued. I am impressed with what a good discourse we have had, with everyone sharing there thoughts in a well articulated manner.

     

    As to, "who knows if it will sustain", that was kind of the crux of the whole discussion. I said it will not, others think it will. I just wanted to hear the other perspective. See if people can make a buyer out of me.

     

    For what its worth, if you guys want something positive in the form of outlook or perspective from me on NWM, I will say this (and agree with some others who have said it).

     

    Thought Bubble is the book to own on this title. It launched in the UK, is far more dispersed, sold plenty before the mania started, was the first 500 variant released, has quality issues.

     

    When all the dust settles, whether NWM sustains or tumbles, Thought Bubble will be the top dog. These oranges and blues will be more common, common in higher grade, and far more in the hands of flippers looking to sell.

     

    If I were buying NWM, and a long term believer, I'd be hoovering up Thought Bubbles as fast as I could while the Eye of Sauron is upon the Blue's and Orange's. I'd also be snarfing up any #1s I could find for cheap. Especially ones people think are 9.4s/9.6s, cause its a white cover, and decent stock. Press press away those cheap 9.8s and hold.

     

    My investor side 2 cents, with some positivity :grin:

     

    why because the TB was released first? or because all the RAW TB are UGLY
