Post your Garage Sale/Flea Market/Antique Mall Finds Here
ADAMANTIUM replied to Shark's topic in Comics General
Lets see 11,000 into 16,000 is 68%, surely fees aren't a 3rd of the price, but I wonder how much it falls back on or is phrased, "Well, ahem, it IS a pawn shop!" Cause not only would I not go to "That" pawn shop for offers, I'm not usually taking comics to sell at ANY pawn store, but I can just hear other pawn shops across the country! "We're not on syndicated television so that'll be 35% of fmv!" To which the customer says -

Agreed. When I first showed interest, I too didn't know the fees of certain places. Like heritage and or comiclink I still don't. Meaning how much I'd make selling it myself I know they need to make money, but it's kind of like trading into the LCS, which I still do from time to time. They mostly offer 50% and 10% more is their bottom line. I've wondered if they get paid to be on the show period, and therefore feel some obligation, but idk. There has to be some reason that someone has an item, and as we know from Reece comics being on the show, don't live in Vegas but fly out anyway? Idk Reece though didn't accept the offer, and it is most often cash money, which some may prefer. Not often but especially at comic cons when I pay cash I can get a bit of a deal. But you're right, it makes me wonder 🤔 -

I use the word dissuade, because it does discourage someone from reading my posts, which is fine ie do or don't, but I don't believe that Dave was trying to actually and with intent to "persuade" someone from reading them Benefit of the doubt kind of thing -

I knew that But the synapsis that "those weren't the same as swampy" didn't kick in 😂 meaning @Dave2739 since the idiom failed, that I knew it was the creature from the black lagoon, but my brain didn't fire on all cylinders that "swamp thing" is not a "general term", to include creatures from black lagoons Ie. all thumbs are fingers, but not all fingers are thumbs. Basically your confused reaction and similar posts to dissuade implying my posts are,in your words, a struggle to read? It was an attemt to shorten sentences to a short turn a phrase, so I'm all thumbs, I apologize for the inconvenience. -

Looks a bit, if you don't mind this comparison, like a hall of fame at a school, with highlights and reels of the classic turtles. I like it! More to come I'm sure 😊 -
Awesome news. Anticipation! It'll be a long drum roll, but good to hear.

Hadn't played it in a while 😂 Took long r to boot up it seemed, hopefully everyone else's is still working. Hadn't forgot, but was kicking myself a bit for not getting to play it, despite there being a headphone jack. -
