I have a 13 string Koto in my spare room I'd love to offer in trade... but unfortunately I wouldn't be able to deliver it

That's hilarious!  Most people don't even know what a Koto is.  It's too bad, but I already paid for it and I'm going to pick it up this weekend 

Final Bump!  I'm open to offers.  PM me!  

Further Price Drop!  I'm selling at my cost now.  

Price Drop!  Took off $100

Nobody likes Star Wars out there?!  

Thank you all for the offers and interest, but it seems I should just close it for now and keep it for myself   

For sale is my Star Wars #1 CGC Signature Series 6.0  signed by:

Carrie Fisher

David Prowse

Ian McDiarmid

Anthony Daniels

I collected these signatures over a few trips to the Calgary Expo.  The allure of this book isn't the condition, but the signatures.  I'm somewhat reluctant to sell it, but my daughter wants to start learning to play the

Koto (Japanese harp) and the price of the instrument is a little higher (now quite a bit since price drop) than what I'm asking for this book.

It is very difficult to put a price on this book.  I'm basically going to price it at what it cost me to get it signed and submitted for all of the signatures plus a little bit.  UPDATE:  With price drop, I'm pretty much selling this at cost of what I put into the book.

Price= $999  $899  $799 USD shipped to the US and CANADA.  

Paypal accepted.

On a side note, Carrie Fisher was an awesome person to meet.  She was absolutely hilarious, honest, and a wonderful spokesperson for mental health issues.  She is sorely missed.

Price Drop!  

Let's see if we can make a deal here....

Feel free to PM with an offer!

SOLD!

Hello fellow collectors.  I am selling off my copy of Werewolf by Night 32 CGC 7.0 UK edition.  Asking price is $550 USD shipping included to the US and Canada.  These tend to sell for 75% of the cents version which is what I based my price on using current GPA.  

I accept Paypal, or if in Canada etransfer.  I prefer to ship this within Canada and tend to give preference to Canadian buyers (we can deal in CAD dollars).  It's a very nice looking book, and I don't really want to part with it, but I bought a rather expensive Shakuhachi (japanese bamboo flute) which I've been learning to play for the last year and need to help pay for it.  

First unconditional on the thread trumps any background negotiations.  Feel free to PM me with an offer, but I feel this is a fair price.  

Thanks for looking!

Awesome buyer!  Fast Payment on a higher priced book!  No problems whatsoever.

I'll take it!  PM sent

SOLD!!  Reply Sent!!

I don't really want to sell this as it is pretty special to me, but I want to be responsible and pay off some debt!  

I have for sale, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1, First Print.  It is a CGC SS 9.0 signed and sketch on cover by Kevin Eastman.  It is also signed on the inside cover by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird.  I got this signed by Kevin at the Calgary Expo when he was there.  He said at the time, that the signatures inside were likely signed at the Portsmouth Mini-con in 1984 where they were signing and giving these away!

Also included is the custom frame I had made for this book as shown in the pictures below.

This one is hard to price as everyone knows.  The most recent 9.0 sale was back in May at $4500.  A 9.2 sold in April for $5999.  However, some more recent sales in August of lower grades (8.0-8.5 selling in the $4200-4500 range) show that this is no longer a very accurate price.

Thus I have arrived at what I believe to be a fair and good deal for this book.  

Price is $5300 USD shipped to the U.S. and Canada.  

You  may or may not agree with the price, that is up for you to decide.  I am willing to entertain offers, but nothing insulting please!  Feel free to PM me.  

First  on the threads trumps all background negotiations.  

There will be no returns accepted for this book.

I accept Paypal or Electronic Funds Transfer.  I am willing to deal in Canadian Funds with fellow Canadians and you may be able to squeeze a bit of a deal out of me as it is cheaper to ship within Canada!  

My fellow Canadians....with the Canadian Dollar at a pretty decent rate now, and with many American friends unwilling to ship to Canada, now is your chance to own the most sought after Copper Age Miracle of Miracles at a fair price!!

I paid a deposit on a book in July. Followed up last month and a few times this month to pay it off but haven't received a response. Emailed him directly as well with no response.

Has anyone heard from him?

I still have not heard anything from him.  It's like he's fallen off the face of the earth... or avoiding us!

Did he pay the deposit you asked for ?

If he did, then there's more chance he'll eventually follow through on this transaction.

No, I waived the deposit which I now wish I hadn't done.  Live and learn.

Sorry this happened Trevor.  Looks like you had a deal and I can see why you'd be steamed  bringing it from Sask to Edmonton for nothing.  I think you're a bit early for this nomination as a month hasn't elapsed since the deal was supposed to go down.  Hopefully he'll come on this thread and reply.

Did he give you the deposit you asked for?

Coming to the Edmonton Expo this year?

Might not be a good idea to leave your phone # in this thread.

Also, thanks for the heads up about my phone number.  I forgot that was in there!  I edited it out.  

I always end up going to the Calgary Expo.  I would like to come to the Edmonton Expo, but my anniversary is on Sept 18th and convincing my wife the Edmonton Expo is a great anniversary trip is somewhat difficult

I'm actually not super upset by this, but felt it should be reported.  After all, I still have my book

I thought the 30 days was from when the deal was made.  Since this was a face to face transaction, it seemed appropriate to report it at this time since the condition of sale was to meet yesterday and we can no longer meet face to face as I'm not going to be going to Edmonton again.

So if I understand this correctly, as of 23 July there was an agreement that you would complete the transaction in person in Edmonton on the Friday the 11th of August (yesterday), but at no time since the 23rd were you able to contact the buyer to confirm the specifics of the meeting scheduled for the 11th, is that correct?

And this transaction was the only reason for the trip, i.e. if not for this deal you would not have gone to Edmonton, is that correct?

No, I was going there with my family on holidays anyway which was why I agreed to sell it to him and I believe he agreed to buy it, because we could do a face to face transaction.   Originally the meeting was to be on the 18th which was what we had agreed to on July 12th, but I had made a mistake as to when I was going to be there so we changed it to yesterday.  As well, I waived the deposit in favour of him paying all up front directly.  

Everything else you said was correct.

Also, I did indeed message him before posting here that I was submitting this.  

As I said, I started contacting him last Thursday to finalize the time and place, but haven't heard anything.  I would be very willing to withdraw this if he would at least tell me what happened.  Perhaps he had some kind of emergency etc.  These are things I'm willing to forgive.  Here are my last messages to him on the board.  I also phoned him, left him messages, and texted him.  It was indeed his phone number, as his message machine confirmed it was for Alex Hope.

Alex,

Could you please contact me to arrange a meet time and place for Friday. Call or text me at CENSORED is best.  Or email me at tprescesky@hotmail.com

Ive texted and left a message on your voicemail a few times.  I'm starting to feel like you've changed your mind?  I will understand if you're having sudden financial difficulties.  Just please let me know.

Hi, I think you can just cut and paste a PM thread into this thread, at least you can try that first.

Before that please also provide the following information:

On what day and on what terms did you first have a firm deal for him to purchase the book

What was the last day on which you had contact with the buyer

This is important as 30 days must elapse from the time you had a deal to your PL nomination. Assuming it has been 30 days, you also need to send the buyer a separate PM now serving notice that you are nominating him for the PL. His profile shows him as having been on the Boards recently, so he can be expected to answer to it here.

The last day I had contact with him was July 23.   The deal was made on July 12th.  We were to meet yesterday to do a face to face transaction where he paid directly with either cash or money order and I handed him the book.

Hey I just got home from work here.  Yes, let's call it a deal.   Go ahead and put an "I'll take it as per PM" on the board. I would like some sort of non refundable deposit though.  It doesn't have to be a huge amount.  Say $600?  Then pay $7500 when we meet up in August?  

I do have one other book I've been thinking of selling, but may not interest you.

 

TMNT #1 first print CGC 9.0 Signature Series signed by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird.  This one really is my baby!  I got it signed and sketched at Calgary Expo when Kevin Eastman was there.  It was signed at some point in the past by both of them on the inside cover.

Hey Alex,

 

I got my dates wrong earlier with when we will be in Edmonton.  We are going to be there Thursday August 10 to Friday August 11.  Will this still work for you?  I'd like to try and meet when we first get there Thursday morning (I don't want to leave the book in the car, or in the hotel room if you know what I mean).  

 

Trevor

Hey Trevor,

 

That shouldn't be a problem. It may need to be the Friday though if that's okay by you? I hate to make you leave it in the car, but that Friday is a payday and just in case I need any extra funds I'll use them come then. I hope that won't be a problem!

Thanks!

Sure Friday will be fine.  I'll figure something out to keep it safe.  I'll message or text you closer to time to finalize things.  

 

Trevor

If someone can tell me how to get PM messages to copy into this thread, I can post our conversations.
