Rather than replying to an ever-growing chain of comments, I’ll keep this simple. I will not speculate about Chip’s mental health. I will not speculate about Chip’s family life. I will not speculate about Chip’s thoughts and motives. I know for a fact that I and others purchased items from him. I know for a fact that he did not ship the items in a timely manner. I know for a fact that he did not respond or even read my PMs. I know for a fact that he did not respond to the growing list of questions in his sales thread. Chip responded and took action only after the threat of this vote. This behavior is not acceptable for this forum. I voted Yes. I donated to his GoFundMe page (admittedly not a lot) and I do not regret doing so. I honestly wish him the best, but he should not be selling items here.

I also sent Chip money for items I did not receive. I've purchased items from him before, and it went fine. I also supported his GoFundMe page because he needed help; there was nothing expected in return. In this case, we made a deal to purchase items, he took the money, and he never sent the items. He also no longer responds to PMs. I understand he probably has other things going on in his life, but if this list exists to safeguard transactions on this board, then his inclusion is justified. I wish him all the best.

Made my way this past weekend to a much-hyped antique mall. There were a ton of comics. Hundreds if not thousands of $2 comics in no order. Lots of randomly priced drek...$5 for random issues of X-Man. I managed to pull a few things: There were a bunch of Star Wars Action Figure Variants available: Some other decent modern picks: But best of all... Found this on top of a random piece of furniture in the first isle (my first pickup of the day). I knew immediately what it was because it was in a sales thread a few months ago. Amazing But True, Facts About Milk & Milk Protection from 1956. My wife says to me, "why would you buy that?" I tried to explain that it's a comic from the 50s, but I don't think she was impressed.

More books coming soon?

Yes

A few random finds today. Turtles/Archie is the regular version (not the misprint) Legends has the MASK insert Scrooge 170 Whitman Edition Dark Knight Returns is a first print 2 Marvel Legends reprints

What year was that made?

Me too! Free tick poster and Mucus Tick. Thanks again.

I suggest reading "the Complete Edlund." It's the original story. Very funny. You can probably find a better price, but this is the book: http://www.mycomicshop.com/search?TID=22324837

Just got these back. Trying to decide which one to keep - probably the Alex Ross cover.

Took a while to find an opp, but it was worth the wait.

The Shellback event was a lot of fun. My one and only trip there. I took a bunch of pics. Here are a few of the sketches.

Izzat the recalled version on the Mad Millennium edition? I never knew that it was ever recalled, now I need to check my copy... Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, it's the non-recalled version. It has the reference to Mad creators on the inside covers.

No random UX1, but a few fun finds at the local library sale.

Just one yard sale today advertising comics. He had for sale one box of random magazines in bags and boards. I picked out 7 books. When I went to pay, he said that some bags had two books, so I'd have to pay for both if I wanted both of them. I didn't realize he double bagged, but I was okay with it - it turned up a second copy of the New Mutants Graphic Novel.

Any updates on this? Although it's a month away, I would be flying in and renting a car, so the sooner I book the cheaper the trip for me.

When will you know if you can help out for those physically there? I am planning on coming in person if there is a witness. I know from previous attempts that mail in is not likely. Never worked out for me.

Here are some details about the Laird signing: https://www.facebook.com/events/235719563491841/?active_tab=highlights You don't need a facebook account to view the event. Is there a chance for any witnesses to attend?
