  1. Pretty sure it was June 2012 and ASM #189 and 190 from LordRahl. I over paid for ungraded books, NEWB!, but they were really pretty 9.6/9.8s. No regerts and I still have them. Someday I should get them graded.
  2. Not to be a, well, me but are there any cool books soon?
  3. Here's a dumb question: You are happily selling your small offerings throughout the year, never collecting sales tax because you wish you sold more than 200 items to customers in a single state or $100,000 in merchandise, but it just does not happen. Somehow, miracle of miracles, at the last minute of the year you sell that 201st item to some nice guy in MD. Does the sales tax rule only apply to that 201st item, and any others you sell, to customers in MD, after that point in the calendar year, or do you have to review all of your transactions throughout the year, find the ones for the state of MD, and retroactively pay sales tax on them? If it is just the 201st item and those after, then that's manageable but if its retroactive to the initial 200 items that could become a costly nightmare. Actually, another dumb question: Who knows when you have exceeded that threshold? If you sell on eBay, they know. Paypal more than likely knows. Who reports it? Is Paypal going to be required to send 1099s, or state equiv, for every state you have done business in? Passing the laws that businesses must pay taxes is just the first step in collection. Next comes the paperwork and bureaucracy. It does not take much imagination to see that the states will want some kind of reporting method, from the payment processors and or Internet sales sites, of applicable transactions so that they get their pound of flesh.
  4. Found this in a second hand book store right after Christmas.
  5. Girl in red dress to, well, lets go with the girl in the red dress.
  6. This is a tough book to find. Definitely should get it graded at some point. Welcome back!
  7. Good thing her hands are tied! She woulda wooped all their butts!
  8. Wow! The Terror hit that Nazi so hard in the back of the head it gave him 2 black eyes!
  9. A trophy book for sure, Gino! Congratulations!
  10. My favorites from a great year. I owned a 9.4 Timely years ago, Daring #11 D Copy, but sold it due to an unexpectedly heavy tax bill. I've wanted a NM Timely ever since and then this one popped up with White pages. I've also wanted a NM Barks classic and this one popped up on eBay with a Buy-It-Now of half of what this copy sold for the year before, I could not resist it either. Finally, the All Select Comics #11 is tough tough tough in 9.0 and higher and I had to pass this up when it was listed the first time I saw it, darn unemployment, but when it was listed a second time, I snagged it! !
  11. Feel like I stole this one from last night's HA.
