Fantastic!

Dan

I guess I missed it, but are we allowed to sell gift cards on here now?

 

Dan

 

It was in the water cooler, .You can do lots of stuff there;) it's the principle;) not the card.

Got it. I suppose selling gift cards on a comic book forum, even if it's in the water cooler, will be a red flag for ALL of us from here on out!!!

Beautiful!

I've never bought something on eBay, received it and said I would pay the following week.

Ever bought a sandwich on Ebay?

Ever gladly paid someone next Tuesday for a hamburger today?

(thumbs u

Dan

I just pay immediately, cable bill or comic book. Cash on the barrel, so to speak. My Pop always said that... or was it Michael Landon?

Dan

I've never gone to a deli, ordered a sandwich and told them I'd pay next week.

Dan

I pay immediately. I like the surprised responses I get back from sellers that I'm unusually fast. Plus, I expect sellers to show the same respect and ship as soon as possible. If they don't, I move my purchases elsewhere. One and done. Common sense.

Dan

Great movie!!! We loved it over at our house!!!

Dan

Great stuff!!

Over the last few years; I've been trying to pickup at least one commissioned piece of artwork when I go to a major convention. This year at Heroes Con; I asked Bob McLeod come up with Wolverine protecting Kitty Pryde. It didn't dawn on me at the time that I was asking him to come up with something similar to the UXM 141 cover and this is what he came up with:

 

I picked it up Friday and it has already been dropped off at the framers to get framed; so that I can add it to my wall of commissions.

 

Can't wait to see who will be at Heroes next year so I can start planning my next purchase.

"Boogeyman Triumphant" commission by Cursed Pirate Girl artist, Jeremy Bastian. Interpretation of The Stuff of Legend's Boogeyman Edition #1 by Charles Paul Wilson III. Denver Comic Con 2014.

 

 

Dan

Exceptional effort behind this commission, awesome piece!

Thanks, man! He really liked the concept and is familiar with Charles and his work. I'm relatively new to commissions, but I found that if you let an artist run with their own ideas, you get terrific results. Plus, pay the man!

Dan

And now the Jeremy Bastian commission framed up behind Museum Glass guarding some S/L's...

Dan

Looking great! Congrats!

Dan

Thanks guys! He was psyched for the subject and I got to him early yesterday just as the Denver Con started and he accepted the commission and came through this afternoon. Very nice and cool guy!

My humble ticket for entry...

Dan

I'm really curious who's going to buy those books in that thread.

 

 

Looks like the "cool books" crowd is making the gutsy move of conducting all their business via PM. Nice.

Yes. Any sales, if any, will be via the PM route.

Dan

Does, "GLWTS!" in a sales thread still mean what it used to mean?

 

Dan

 

Good luck with the scam, right?

 

 

So the guys posting "GLWTS!" on my thread are being asshats? That's great, I told them thanks! I thought it meant "Good Luck With The Sale". These forums are looking worse for me every day.

It does mean Good Luck With the Sale. Those guys were being genuine.

Sometimes the exclamation point is a hint of sarcasm. glwts is more subtle.

Sorry to bring it up, but it's the only way I knew certain prices were too high back in the day. It was a way to thread**** a thread without the ****

Dan

Does, "GLWTS!" in a sales thread still mean what it used to mean?

 

Dan

 

Depends on the usage. It still means "Good Luck With That *Spoon*" but it can be used when you truly wish someone luck with a sale or used sarcastically if the seller is asking for WAY too much.

I seem to remember it meaning the last one.

I have enjoyed the experience of both a little selling and buying (loads of buying!) on this board since the inception of the marketplace. It has slowly descended into nonsense of late. I am glad for the few sellers that I trust and for the excellent service they've given in the past. The present, however, is murky.

Dan

that was a long time ago, and as I said to another. Make a thread, and I'll be happy to go back and dig it all up. It involves posts, PMs, a mod, another forum, and a bunch of other people.

 

It has nothing at all to do with what you posted. Which is of course, more untrue things. I did not say what you just tried to imply with those quotes. I never told anyone to meet me anywhere.

 

You're lying.

I've told women to meet me but they never do.

 

Now I hate to act as a Kav historian, but didn't you claim in the Water Cooler that you had turned down model caliber women or some nonsense?

 

I'll hang up and listen…

Don't forget the free lady advice he was offering.

Several people have said it would only cost $100 to have this thing walked thru, as it would only be 3% of the FMV of a restored book. I dont believe they are correct. The original owner paid much much more for his walk thru and the new buyer would not be submitting the book as as a PLOD, but rather as a raw book.

This wasn't a hundred dollar shot in the dark, this was a $500 shot in the dark. Unless the new owner lives within driving distance of Sarasota, it was an $800 shot in the dark. Lets see where this book ends up for sale. I have my suspicions, already.

 

This was no "shot in the dark"!

 

I GUARANTEE you that this book was resubbed with a full explanation of its previous blue label by someone big enough to have confidence that CGC would change back the label with a wink and a smile. It's not the 1st time.

 

It'll be very interesting to see when and where this book ends up for sale because it certainly wasn't bought as a "keeper" by a collector.

 

Yikes. That's a pretty big GUARANTEE. And a heck of an accusation.

 

Dan

 

I'll just say this, after my Avengers 4 situation, I received enough info from boardies that are BEYOND trustworthy that makes me 100% confident that's what happened.

That really blows. This is a very sad and goofed up situation.
