  1. nice bondage cover on that Adventures 439; I always wondered though about how that cleavage is drawn? with the line placement the way it is, she'd be size "H"s if that actually exists As for my Bats 227, consider it yours if you need one We can work out a deal via PM.
  2. Thanks again to comicwiz for the Silver Surfer 1 and Pete the Lil pest 1 I picked up using that innovative "Make an offer" flipbook! (if I only had the technological know-how ) Joseph has always been really good to me on deals and providing me with books I needed, as far back from the Star Wars 1 35 cent variant years ago Kudos to Nikos who sent me 2 whitmans off his ebay sales and I didn't even pay for one - I guess I overlooked it because I won it later that day and I had already paid nikos for the first one. I feel bad for cosing him exra paypal fees. He's been super patient with everyone in running the grading contests and he has made me some really nice deals on ASM and USM books. A good guy all around...I'm still waiting for a big slab of real baklava in the mail! I've been hitting pretty much any forumites ebay offerings with a buy or a bump so keep listing them up here and I promise to check them out. I was looking at johnenock's and Brett's runs. There's always something good out there...except maybe when greggy lists...
  3. Same with a package I mailed to Darth -- he was nothing but understanding and supportive as I explained how it was possible that I had mailed the package and it got "misdelivered" (my bad! ) back to me. Then he had to wait again while it was shipped off to him a second time! Thanks for the heads up preview PM on your sale. If I wasn't busy feeding the kids and then putting them to bed, I would have been able to browse a little better. I was hoping you were putting up some DC whitman dupes for sale? I'll have to pick any issues up off ebay like the rest Good luck on those CBMs! Those were nice IMO...
  4. Thanks! I have a lower grade copy that I was thinking of testing the market with on ebay before I let this one loose? It is a fairly common book and there were a few listed in low-mid grade that sold for too low (IMO) in the past two weeks...

  6. picked up 2 batman 227's (vf, maybe a lowervf+, and other one is about fn/Vf) in Balto and a Cave carson Brave and the Bold... will post scans later tonight... bought about 20 Millie's, a Chili, 3 Combat Kellys, an Action Comics whitman variant, Defenders 1 (latest reboot), and JLA 117 and 118 (current series)
  7. Huge kudos to forumites over the last couple of month whom I've had the privilege to deal with. Some are go-to guys whose auctions and threads here I check out every time and some are newer forumites that I'm glad I took a chance on and they came through with a sweet deal for me: Foolkiller for brokering a win-win deal with his friend MaryAnn Oldguy for flipping me some nice variants from his LCS Nikos for selling me some of his high grade moderns for bargain prices Shrunkenhead for providing me with hours of Twilight Zone DVD goodness Thecollector for a great deal off an otherwise waste of time, total dead end bomb of a thread (anbukid's folly of a wtb ASM 300 thread) rocketeer for posting some sweet books I wouldn't otherwise have considered Kudos to my variant dealers: mattiejc, zilla4, subusu - Bruce - local ebay seller that finds these sweet copies all the time rob_react, flying_donut, scottish, joe_collector, silverandbronze, stromm, capitolcollectibles, metarog, shield_agent, 4gemworks, jeffreykli, cosmic-spiderman and daffy06 who have all contributed a part of that sweet registry set I've posted...these guys have been instrumental in tracing down and trading for ever higher grade copies of these rarities I wouldn't hesitate dealing with any of the above. My apologies if I've left anyone out...
  8. I disagree. Money helps, but it's not the only requirement. So then what title do you think us unobtainable, even with a limitless wallet? Fast Willie Jackson?
  9. My recollection is that the following people got them: You Me Harry Vincent Ian Bonds25 I had ten made. Four more are unaccounted for (or maybe only two or three -- did I keep a second shirt? Did you get two shirts?) because I forgot who asked for them. I thought I might also have given one to Jim or someone else locally. I have a vague recollection of that, but it's all hazy after this past Saturday night. I have one I wore it proudly on Sunday of last year's Baltimore Con I usually wear it to the neighborhood pool now, so it's all chlorined out but the pic is still intact!
  10. Yeah, he's eating a greasy pork sandwich and using the NA 26 as his napkin and placemat
  11. You are a master of contradictory statements Now do you want that 10 million in Vietnamese dongs or old Italian lira?
  12. I am SO glad I didn't give in to temptation, and held my ground. I wouldn't be so quick to burn that bridge, pallie. After all, you are going to need DTA's copy when you decide to upgrade your collection or go for your inevitable second/dupe set...
  13. Yes, I know...MY name is on the subscription I'm glad she enjoyed it! Very different photo spread of Madonna from the one in Penthouse years back She needs something to read too while you do WHATEVER it is you do with all those inserts? I was glad to send it your way, brother! Thanks again for working with me. I appreciate the patience with the stamps.com snafu on military addresses and the help on the inside scoop with that.
  14. A big thank you goes out to SHRUNKENHEAD for a recent ebay sale shipped to me. Those Twilight Zone episodes bring back fond memories of staying up during grammar school back in NYC, just to watch them back to back with Honeymooners and Outer Limits episodes on channel 11 I really like the extras and commentaries - it's like seeing the same stuff I've watched for years but getting a NEW take on things
  15. No, thank you for providing me a way to track your submissions online via serial number! I will OWN THE GRADING CONTEST NOW! BWAHAHAHA!
  16. Didn't Storm also lift the Hammer in an Xmen annual? (10?)
  17. ...but what if it is a 35 cent price under that sticker?
  18. Surprised I lost with a $200 snipe for 2 FN books
  19. Just checked out your blog and saw this result Hmmm...
  20. dD 131 right before the movie, dd 168 before the movie, asm 129 before punisher movie
