  1. Agreed. It can be a PM between two members that don't adhere to market place rules. I see no need to reconcile the raffle issue.
  2. Thanks @HollyJollyOne It seems even worse when you lay it out like that. Gift exchanges are supposed to be delivered by Christmas. So what was he doing? So he said he was sick but recovered by Dec 8th. He was still posting on Jan 19th.
  3. I believe he also received 2 gifts in the raffle. To me that is what makes it so bad. Claim 2 gifts and receive them and not send out the gift you were supposed to.
  4. Many years ago at a con in Philly Ken saw me walking past with a Frazetta shirt on and called me over. We talked for several minutes. Really nice guy and he signed these prints for me.
  5. Just to add one detail to this story people may not know. Ken was the nephew of Frank's wife Ellie. That was his original connection to Frank.
  6. Very glad I have this in my collection.
  7. Found the prints. That was many years ago.
  8. He called me over at a con once since I was wearing a Frazetta shirt. We talked for a few minutes and he signed a few prints for me. Very nice guy.
  9. Figured the magazine section deserved its own thread. https://bravewords.com/news/kiss-rainbow-manowar-artist-ken-kelly-dead-at-76

  11. @CGC Mike Does CGC really believe the statement "grader's notes are free"? Its delusional.
  12. Curious what his reaction was to some of the glaring issues like upside down books and swapped labels. Was he as horrified as we are?
  13. This right here. There is zero upside to collectors and tons of downside.
  14. Honestly I think a lot of thought went into adding that word in there.
  15. Well, the announcement itself says "CGC will continue to identify on the label any significant missing pieces, pages, wraps or inserts from the interior of a comic" I think the issue is what will they consider "significant"
  16. @CGC Mike Let's just cut through all the BS. People now have to look up graders notes. THEY ARE NOT FREE. No matter how many times CGC says they are free, they are simply lying and everyone knows it. The bare minimum to not make this an obvious cash grab would be to actually make the notes free.
  17. I think one thing is clear. Whatever QC is going it is not happening on every book. I have asked that question several times of @CGC Mike and there has not been a response. I mean if the answer was yes they would just say it. There is zero upside to not answering yes if that was the case.
  18. Someone scribbled on yours. I'm not sure it counts.
  19. @CGC Mike This is insanity. What on earth is happening?
