    I heard most of the boardies complaining about him and sometimes, I got emails from eBayers asking me if I am scammed by the same guy.  I am lucky none of my books were trimmed or CT so far and sold some of his books but that was 7 or 8 years ago.

    What are the worst years you have bought the books through him?   I heard that most of the key issues were trimmed.  Please confirm this.

    I used to go to his store in Hartsdale in the mid 80's. The store was very small. He seemed like a decent guy at the time.I bought a so-called mint FF 48 and being new to collecting at that time, later found out it was trimmed. I later bought a Green Lantern #1 that was advertised as Mint through his ad in CBG. When I received it I found not only was it trimmed, but it was extensively color touched. I paid $1000 for it which was a lot at the time. Luckily I put it on a credit card. I got in my car an drove to his store. When I showed him the defects he got very defensive and obnoxious, bragging how he drove a Ferrari and would resell the book for more money. He credited my card and I said I would never deal with him again. He laughed. That was the last time I went there. Later I heard he was arrested for forging signatures on sports memorabilia. A few years later I met a guy who owned a comic store in Westchester who did the trimming for him.

    Looks to be a poor time to sell as most people are pre-occupied with the effects of the  corona virus and not comics, which is perfectly understandable. Even the comments have dropped off, which are always welcome. I'm going to

    give a one time discount of 15%  on every leftover item in this thread. I'll leave it up for a few days, then try at a later time. These books are all from my personal collection of over 35 years. I hope those who are able will find something for their collection. Be safe everyone. :foryou:

     

    :news:    15% off everything in this thread.

    Eerie Stories 8/37  Brutal and disturbing cover by Norman Sanders. Probably one of the most violent horror pulp covers ever.  Shackled blonde tortured with blow torch and hot poker.  This extremely scarce one shot is hard leather bound. It is in excellent condition with nice paper. It is trimmed as volume books are. Two teeny pieces of tape on inside covers. One of a kind piece.  $1600
