  1. Why wouldn't they sell it to you? Call them up. Pay them $1000. Get the book. Give BOC his $100. The end.
  2. Got to agree with Darth here. The seller thought he is dealing from a position of strength, because he knows you must have this book! But you're the only legitmate bidder for it, because everybody else in the world says "You've got to be [!@#%^&^] kidding me, a $1000 price for a stupid Man of Steel trade? I don't [!@#%^&^] think so!" What you should have done is what Darth said - left your bid at $500, and waited to see if it sold. If it didn't meet the reserve, you could have contacted the guy and said "hey, I'm probably the only guy in the world who wants this book, lets trade some stuff that I know you can sell" or, if it did sell to some other slappy, done the same thing. You need to think about jumping in on it with both feet, because you probably could have given the guy more than he wanted in trade.
  3. Donut is the Hedgehog?!?! THE WHEELS ARE IN MOTION!!!! BWAH HA HAH HA HA
  4. SCREW THE LITTLE OLD LADIES! I WANT THEIR BOOKS RIGHT NOW! BWAH HAH HAH HAHA HAH HAHAHAHAHA
  5. Argh Vincent: What would the price on the Double Action 2 be? Would you sell it to Ian if he would pay you your price? Ian: Would you buy it from Vincent? If the answer is YES to these questions, just sell it to him and the both of you please calm down.
  6. On and on and on and on and on and on ad nauseum
  7. I think I do need the Riggins (maybe Theismann to), but the no names are the ones that can be hard to find so I may need many of them. Anyway, I'll get you a list soon. I'm in a training this week at work so no free time until this weekend. Being in Northern Virginia, Redskins cards are everywhere. Let me know what you need and I'll track them down for you.
  8. Hmmmmm.... 1. Perez FF art. Just getting into buying some, big thanks to board member Heartened for passing me to the right people. 2. 1970s Mead superhero stuff. Strange, weird things that sell for nothing - folders, cups, posters, etc. 3. Old postcards of Barrington, Illinois (my home town). They pop up every now and then on eBay, stuff from 1910. Totally bizarre that my little (pop. 10,000) town would have postcards made about it, especially old stuff. and of course, Visa slips.
  9. A pair of serious [!@#%^&^] teases, if you know what I mean:
  10. Just sold this - bondage, headlights, racial stereotyping, the whole deal:
  11. Ian - have you seen this? No clue as to what it is, but does hold a DC comic!
  12. Another Lost Valley book, just got it back from plastic tombing:
  13. Right, Jake. Now I gotta go get me some dry white toast. And a glass of water. I want four whole chickens. And a coke.
  14. He posted it on a website. In order for it to be an image, it has to be somewhere - you just attached it. No big deal.
  15. email it to me dcusimano@usa.net. I'll post it tonight.
  16. I don't have one, but its in the 1987 Overstreet.
  17. Supergear definitely does exist. Al Stoltz of Basement Comix has 2, I believe. It has a white cover.
  18. I had a Fantastic Four 1 with a date stamp of July 28, 1961.
  19. Thanks for the laugh FF, I really needed it today. You really can't be that naive, can you? Um, this is true. Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act - Text of S. 505 as adopted by Congress, January 27, 1998. "b) COPYRIGHTS IN THEIR RENEWAL TERM AT THE TIME OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE SONNY BONO COPYRIGHT TERM EXTENSION ACT- Any copyright still in its renewal term at the time that the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act becomes effective shall have a copyright term of 95 years from the date copyright was originally secured.';"
  20. What did he die OF? Was he suddenly poisoned? Killed by an angry mob? Die of too much cholesterol? Couch potatoness? Inquiring minds want to know! And what about the "mystery woman?" Where'd she come from?
  21. Joanna, why don't you blow this "superiority complex" you have out your butt? OK, now I've simply had it. A couple of things: 1) There have been, by my count, roughly 500 posts to the "Crisis" thread. Every other member of the board is having a good time with this. I don't think you've been singled out for anything, outside of your know-it-all attitude. 2) She can't be making personal insults against you, as she doesn't know who you are, what you do, what you look like, etc. etc. etc. The only thing we know about anybody on this board, unless we take the time to meet them, is what they come across on the board. You sound like a know-it-all. That's what she was making fun of. Lighten up. 3) You've gone and made it personal, to somebody who has done nothing to you. The fact that you did it to a woman makes it doubly [!@#%^&^], but that's beside the point. She did nothing to warrant any of this, neither did anyone else. 4) Your continual threats to meet people in an alley and re-arrange their internal organs just makes you sound little, mean, and bullyish. I don't understand where you're coming from. She's writing fiction, for god's sake. 5) Vince, I have been one of your defenders on here - we've gone at it a few times, but on many things you're right. On this, however, you simply need to sack up, be a man, and let it drop. Nobody is out to get you.
