  1. This was always going to be the outcome. Anyone who thinks they were going to admit to an any degree of damaging books was just being delusional.
  2. I've never sold a book in my life anywhere. I don't get insulted or mad when someone overprices their books. I just move on. I still enjoy going to shows even if I don't buy very much. Get see lots of cool books. Talk with cool people. I'm just not going to make a bad financial decision because I'm at a show.
  3. I don't mind paying a small premium to buy at a show. But I'm talking about maybe 5-10% at most. I don't care about how expensive it is to set up at a con. Or how much you paid for the book. Just don't care.
  4. Taschen is running a sale for the next few days. You can get the Frazetta book for $99.99 instead of the normal $200.
  5. I can't resist. Someone should jump on this masterpiece. https://www.ebay.com/itm/286034331449?_nkw=frank+frazetta+inspired+bob+ross&itmmeta=01J6DXJSQ5K3M7FHPACVM4JJ5Z&hash=item4298f98739:g:seoAAOSwMPZmWdAI&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA4HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKnqZmrETyUtA%2FARjpicjX%2B47ajrDhhdrYWfAXSMKXmLN9gwLSn%2Bwuj2ht8AeQ9ZG%2BZRMTR1Q53Oc%2B75YtJnoKjJ%2BB3JGaeNnMOo4Tmz3XJ%2FyDGNLmKBysms8zSt%2B42ROLjtTE%2BQwo684u0N2dQcYEwOeJqjLgzK9qlx6LE1A4%2BVXliTICjAq1BdwnqVF5u36ZPyF4Y2TwCogBLlsVmaYQfPkoLP3Mc737LuMKRrJfaiNFAO3lOqo1hePF57D0tKa7Fw9Mpj5gvkg6%2BqDoiXT1XZ|tkp%3ABk9SR-Cby72zZA
  6. This is the equivalent of everyone who drives slower than me is an insufficiently_thoughtful_person and everyone who drives faster than me is a lunatic.
  7. The "batch of defective inner wells explanation" seems so long ago.
  8. I don't believe that is ever going to happen. The loss of money and time to fix all these books will be completely unacceptable to the big bosses.
  9. I'm not sure what is the worst part of this listing. Calling this book an 8.0 or charging $28 for shipping. https://www.ebay.com/itm/266955898448?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D777008%26algo%3DPERSONAL.TOPIC%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D272234%26meid%3Df0267fb785184a349ae6512fb918d5ae%26pid%3D101949%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26itm%3D266955898448%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D4375194%26algv%3DRecentlyViewedItemsV2WithMLRV6RankerTop30Features&_trksid=p4375194.c101949.m162918&_trkparms=parentrq%3A8b28654f1910a8ce4d150f57ffffab4a|pageci%3Aed8a26d5-631d-11ef-97f0-a6f321dff1a8|iid%3A1|vlpname%3Avlp_homepage
  10. I was looking at a seller who had a few interesting slabs. Then I saw the shipping method was media mail. I'm not sure I've seen that before for a slab.
  11. I feel like most businesses would refuse you service at that point.
  12. To be clear I was not wishing him death. Just what might happen in prison.
  13. He doesn't seem like he would last long in prison. Healthcare doesn't seem to be a strongpoint there.
  14. I don't think CGC can admit anything. Its gone on too long. How many thousands of books have been slabbed? They aren't going to eat all those fixes.
  15. If he still has your books and you have not contacted the police this should certainly be the push you were looking for.
  16. So if you hadn't looked for the bend, you wouldn't have seen the bend. But you did look for the bend and you saw the bend.
  17. Its not surprising is it. They don't care. At all.
  18. Did he actually post in his reply he offered to sell it off ebay? Good lord.
  19. Been a while since I posted in here. Two recent pickups. Been looking forever for a decently priced Vampy 113. Finally got one.
