I joined the GCD last year and told them I had five thousand images to upload. And not just pence copies. They allowed me to post one image at a time which I had to wait for authorisation on. Then they said I had categorised it wrong. Then they argued among themselves about the classification. Then they asked me to crop all images. So I gave up, as it was too much like hard work. And I never heard from them again. Great site, great endeavour, and definitely one I'd want to support, but too hard to engage with clunky unintuitive software that I just couldn't get to grips with. Plus I personally disagree with cropping images - I feel you should see the full comic - and some of their descriptors. There's a chap here who takes all the images I post in my threads and uploads them anyway. So it shouldn't be too long before they appear.

Doctor Tom Brent and His Flying Nurses

Still on the subject of MLM, here's a cents copy from 64 but still with a British angle. Firstly, someone took the trouble to hand write a 9d price on Ringo's drums and secondly, well, it's The Beatles, Blighty's gift to mop-top-pop: Not my copy - courtesy of the bay. Ringo looks himself doesn't he And MLM spends some time moonin' over the Fab Four inside: Cos when she touches them, she feels happy, inside. It's such a feeling that her love - she can't hide. She can't hide. She can't hide. A period of chemical induced absence ensues.... -

Niice. I'd love to own the original art to this page: The cast are so definitive in these issues. Look at Peter and Betty here - the real deal: That is Peter Parker. -

Amazing to see how much of the structure survived what looked like an impossible position last night. The cyclone issues had some of my favourite art in them. And a great mood. -

I see it, under 'item specifics', cheers dporges. So it's not in the title or written description but it comes up anyway. Annoying isn't it. -

It's called recycling FartStuArt. If we had a ban on old topics the place would be empty. -

That's a Scooby. Quite easy to spot but often mistaken for Lassie.

I think it's hard enough to get comics for reasonable prices as it is. Any policy which moves the goal posts and puts more money into ebay and the seller's pockets is bad for the less well off end of the collecting community. It would be another nail in the coffin for the collector with a lower budget. Great for sellers and ebay of course. One off sellers trying to get the most for their collection would benefit I'm sure, so there would be some swings and roundabouts. But overall, I'm for leaving things as they stand. So it will likely change tomorrow! -
There's a hair and chin thing going on there, yes. I remember seeing the Sharkey fella downstairs at the Tufnell Park Dome in the nineties. Decade, not temperature. Talent scout he was. If my memory serves Eve's Plum were playing and did a stonking version of I Will Survive. They were the support though, the main act I think were the Slingbacks. Of course, that could be three memories mixed up as I went there quite a bit.

The thrill of the bidding frenzy is fine if you're rich. For those that aren't, extending the closure time just gives richer / lazier people more time to outbid you. It also encourages people to bid higher than they would otherwise want to - it can be addictive. I believe an auction should have a fixed end time. You want the book? Bid your maximum within the allotted time. Win or don't win. Extending the time works only for the seller and reduces the possibility of snagging a bargain, one of the attractive aspects of ebay bidding. If a seller doesn't want to risk that, go for BIN.
