ok. thanks for the response. That is a better variation of "is that your best price?

when I buy at a con, should a question I ask a seller 100% of the time is "Is this your best price?" or some variation of that question?

Point 7 is a real D-bag move.

This is what my mind sounds like as I walk into an old school comic con with a pocket full of cash....

come on, somebodies gotta know the 411.

Just some kinda "Store closing" sale e-mail.

Are you telling us to Google image search “Tub Girl?”

POST CLOSED!

Sounds like someone is jealous. We joined the boards around the same time and my comic book collection is superior to yours, action figure or no action figure.

There’s a lot of knowledgeable people here. I’m just trying to become The World’s Greatest Comic Book Collector.

You sound like me dealing with my 93 year old mom just giving her any answer to her seemingly endless stream of questions just to pacify her. My mom is a question machine. I guess there’s a lot of my mom in me.

Stan Ridgway. Wall of Voodoo. “Mexican Radio.” My question remains unanswered.

? No comprende. It’s a riddle. They talk about the U.S. inflation. I buy the product but never use it. Leave it on in bed when I slumber. I hear the DJ. Can’t understand just what does he say? I understand just a little. No comprende it’s a riddle.

Why are you up at 3am?

Meaning a book that comes up for sale over and over and over. Not speculative books as in, "Hey, Jerry Bruckheimer announced a Hansi, The Girl Who Loved The Swastika movie so I better buy all the copies I can than unload that sh*t right before the film comes out so I'm not left holding a Hot Potato" but Hot Potato like an undisputed key that comes up for sale, a lot. Maybe it's CPRed again and again or whatever. But the book comes up for sale a lot so it's, rightly or wrongly, thought to have baggage. Anyways, how long after a sale before the book loses its identity as a Hot Potato book?

Thanks for the in-depth research. Don't have to time to read at the moment. Work calls. But will soon. Thanks to all who participated.

Party Pooper.

I guess I’ll wait for TPB to read in one sitting. The art looks terrible which is really putting a damper to buying it at all. God it looks bad. Anybody who has read it want to give an opinion story-wise? thanks.

Ok. I meant the one miller did with Bill s. Electra lives again sucks donkey balls. At 22$ or whatever in 1988 when I was flat broke made me check out of comics for about 30 years.

The Daredevil one that Frank Miller did circa 1986.

Thanks for taking the time w/ a learned answer, Brock.

Good job! Everybody wins.

Phone video of me taken by my buddy. On the way to last year's Wondercon with my Want List and ready to negotiate:

Be respectful of a dealer's time and hard work and just ask politely. Be serious with your offer. Don't waste people's time with kicking the tires. I understand where you're coming from, tho. As someone with social anxiety interactions can be tough. Don't take a lot of xanax before a con and drool and pass out at a dealer's table while negotiating. You want to be taken seriously.
