  1. A personal fave (mostly due to the last sentence): http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=8908930&fpart=1
  2. Frankly, its a hot mess G, so ... But keep at it. (the last part is sincere).
  3. You're setting accounting principles back centuries.
  4. Not sure, but in that thread he had a book listed for $280, which was taken. Several hours later he said the price was a typo - should've been $380, but he was graciously reducing to $350 due to his error. And just for good measure: http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=8932829#Post8932829
  5. Ok. Better than nothing, but you're looking at around 3% on 10K When paypal is making more than you, it's time to find tune your model. Just sayin. Edit: I read that wrong. Your'e looking at $300 on the remaining inventory. What did you make on the other $5K?
  6. It's not, unless of course you are making zero profit and expect to make exactly zero profit. Your inventory should be worth more than what you paid for it if you want to stay in business.
  7. Net revenue is not a thing, Gabe. Revenue is revenue, i.e all $ coming in. Net income is revenue minus expenses in the simplest sense. You may be in the black and not even know it. You need to add inventory value to cash on hand to be sure. I feel like I've been here before.
  8. The deal sucked from the start for you, but trying to grab another $100 because you think the market value of your book went up is frankly, weak sauce.
  9. My plan was to sell it at it's peak to make the most money like you said and this was a deal on facebook not in person. My reason for making that trade was black mail he said if I back out he would post in the facebook groups that I'm a scammer. I do have gpa which is why I wanted to keep and sell the asm 129 for a good profit. The deal went down something like this because I posted that I bought a asm 129 and was excited Him: "hey you have a asm 129 cgc 9.0 right?" Me: "I don't have it yet but I bought one why?" Him "I have a ba12 about a 9.4 raw" Me: "ok show me pics" (he showed me pics and I didn't agree with his grading so I asked if he wanted to do a cash plus trade deal and this was when gpa on the asm 129 was 1075) Him "what do you think?" Me: "I don't agree with your grading because your overgrading and over valuing the comic as it's raw" Him "ok how about this? the ba12 plus 300 cash?" Me: "that's sounds fair when I get it I'll let you know" Him: "cool" (the comic now arrived) Me: "ok I got the comic and since the value of asm 129 went up would you add 100 bucks? because if not I'd like to keep it since it will go up in value" Him: are you backing out of the deal? you said you agreed and now your backing out of it?" Me: "The values of the comics aren't even anymore so if you can add a little more cash we can still do this" Him "No what I gave you is fair all the dealers I went to said this is a 9.4 without a press" Me: I don't want to lose money on this trade" Him: "You won't trust me" Me: "I don't want to do the trade if you won't add some more cash to your part" Him "If you back out of this deal I'm reporting this to all the fb groups that you tried to back out of a deal and scam me" Me: "I didn't scam you and we didn't fully agree on the trade" Him: " I don't care you went against your word and you are trying to scam me now" Me: Fine! I'll do the trade ok?" Him: "good" (keep in mind I asked him to do the extra cash part when then comic's value was at 1225 and I would take a little lower yes but I'd still make a decent profit on it or so I thought) Said it before,
  10. Blackmail, huh. Hmmm. Its not the end of the world, so just consider it a life lesson. Not like it hasn't happened to a lot of us.
  11. Looks like you own 40% of the known inventory according to that eBay listing. Quicksilver, meet driver's seat!
  12. Remember Sex, Lies and Videotape? Same thing but without the sex or videotape.
