  1. Ya Baby....but disappointed I did not hit a 9.8...
  2. Sturdy plastic boxes. Not sure if they are available in the U.S. although I think that BCW do something simiar I took these a while ago for another UK boardie. I printed the spines myself although I have seen a pretty epic display where someone had cut up an Alex Ross poster and re-assembled it in the volstors so that when they were all on a shelf the full picture could be seen. Each case can hold about 30 books with bags and boards but I prefer 22 books with full-backs and Mylites2 Anyone know where I can find these cases. Would like to create the sam set-up. Please let me know
  3. amazing piece what does this retail for???
  4. I call bull on the above statement. How stupid do you think people around here are?
  5. I'm sorry, you didn't handle this well and this clusterduster is the result. When selling 10k books 'Usual Rules Apply' isn't clear enough as there are no agreed on selling rules. in thread wins would have been much easier. Putting the book on hold was an honorable thing for you to do. You could have discussed the sale via pm and left the book for sale on the thread. Once you held the book for the pm buyer you should have continued to discuss his terms and ignored any action in your sales thread. If there was something about the terms - 3rd party etc - that was a problem you should have told the pm buyer the terms were unacceptable and the book was no longer on hold. Yes, it's your book, you sold it to someone you trust, for your asking price, but did you really handle this well? And how would you feel if the situation was reversed? And lastly, what real risk do you face when payment is via cheque or money order? All the risk is on the buyer and that's why he was asking about a 3rd party. You want a payment method that has the lowest fees but puts the buyer at risk yet you're unwilling to accommodate him. +1
  6. Absolutely no doubt you are free to do what you want with your book, but can you not appreciate the enormous risk you were also asking Randy to make by asking for 10k with no buyer protection? Its not about legalese, you also have to sometimes look at things from the buyer's standpoint too. The 3rd party option was actually the most logical of solutions and would have balanced the risks equally between you, and indeed eliminated many. +1
  7. Yeah.. I'd thought I would free up some cash for other purchases.
