Miami-Rick

bottom line, I made thousands of dollars selling comics I bought for 12 and 15 cents,,,Slab THAT.......have a nice life.

isn't it time for you to drop more french fries ? the customers are waiting.

This must be the gang that dress up as superheroes at the conventions, waiting in line five hours to have their picture taken with Darth Vader,...see ya.

Whats it to You? You wanna Date? Just because you got some deals and had to sit through hours of his stories while holding his tallywhacker, that means he's great. You need professional help. Good night.

It'll get up to Canada eventually...patience

Miami meathead....not bad!

It is entirely possible that the Delaware Dork defeated the New York Clown in a Loser-Leave-Town on a Greyhound match..? Just trying to lighten the thread...

at the risk of sounding too harsh,...some people need to lighten up. I'm just relating my lousy experience and add my voice to the many who warn others to steer clear of this B.S. artist. Stop getting apoplectic,..nobody's pressing charges, and the comics (tape and all) are sold for a great price. If you want to love him, call him a great character or acquired taste, go ahead...build a statue of the guy if you want. I'm done. Excelsior!

by the way, I was being kind.

who are you, his agent? Is your office the phone booth outside the Waffle House? I blame myself for showing up at some detached moldy garage in the first place, I should have chuckled to myself and kept driving. Dealing out of a garage is the equivalent of going to a shade-tree mechanic or having your dentist or surgeon in a Walmart Supercenter,..right in between the Subway and the restrooms. Grade B. Cyanide is an acquired taste too.

I'm very honest too, Jim was very cordial in his communication with me...it's his flunky who the Greyhound bus dropped off in South Florida that's a problem. Live and learn.

I'm sure nobody out there in comic land (with the possible exception of yourself) is losing sleep over a benign throwaway remark I made ..an accurate remark in this instance I might add. Grab a kleenex and get over it please.

Its not exclusive to NY, I'm sure there are shady blowhards operating out of a dingy garage ,...oh, I'm sorry..OFFICE...in the other 49 states too. More power to him.

no offense buzz, my favorite pizza is in White Plains NY in da bronx.

well, I guess he's a fellow Florida clown now...just what we needed, more hot air.

he's a nice enough guy, but he full of , and it has nothing to do with him not buying my stuff,..I already have them sold so it's no big deal, but I have more respect for the comic shop owners who, unlke this NY Clown , have to pay rent, electric etc... so you know their gonna break out the lube and bust balls even if you walked in with a mint FF #1 and offer 5 bucks.. anyway, God bless him, no harm done, just a colossal waste of time. Yeah, he can talk the chrome off a bumper but nobody's perfect.

Prototype NYC motormouth , wasted 2 hours of my life this afternoon, drove to his florida office, if you call a crappy one car garage an office, and after flipping through over 1000 comics that my brother spent days meticulously indexing, boxing and putting in order, only to have this slapnuts fling through them, and declare that they're of no value because of tape on the spine. He knew of their condition weeks ahead of time then acts shocked and mystified upon seeing them. Meanwhile he sells horses@#t mags in far worse condition on his rinky-dink website. I had good offers but this numbnuts was close by and recommended by Jim Payette so I tried it. I would gladly drive to New Zealand than deal with this character. Good for a laugh though,...I doubt his jaws have stopped flapping. If anything needed tape, it's his pie-hole...Good Lord....AVOID.

Thanks GarBear,,appreciate the input

selling my collection, but curious about opinions on the keep-at-all-costs mags from silver& bronze age. thanks.

I'm not computer savvy, but if you provide me an email address I can send a few shots from my tablet for your feedback,..thanks.

thanks for the replies,..I'll try to upload pictures later.

Help & advice needed. I have several hundred silver-age Marvels that my brother had put a single strip of scotch-tape along the length of the spine (as a teenager 40 years ago) because they were becoming slightly frayed. Of course in hindsight we both wish he hadn't, but back then selling them never entered our minds. I am interested in selling, but would having a strip of tape on an otherwise excellent condition mag be a deal killer? If that is the only flaw, how many points should I expect to be knocked down should I ship some out for grading? I'm a bit concerned. Thanks.
