A little bit of proof (like this supposed correspondence between nuffsaid and BL's dad) would be a good start for batfella here. Even that proof isn't really necessary, because buttheadcollectibles outright states that there was no agreement. No one "agrees" to "yeah, you know, whatever the grades and prices are, it doens't matter, I'll buy them all." So, in that respect, there was no "deal" to begin with.

START A POLL!! START A POLL!! START A POLL!! START A POLL!! We have no lives... YES WE DO!! YES WE DO!! YES WE DO!! YES WE DO!! Yes...we do have no lives. (thumbs u

BL's baby teeth are bigger than this guy's nads......

START A POLL!! START A POLL!! START A POLL!! START A POLL!! We have no lives...

The interesting thing, of course, is that whereas CS was a genuine thief, BL is about as sweet a gal as could tolerate us comic nerds....and that's pretty damn sweet! (thumbs u

Google recent news re: Chesapeake Energy's "promise" to "agree" "contract" made to potential whinning oil/gas royalty owners. B~ No judge in America would consider the comments of Lauren's dad alleged by buttheadcolectibles to have been a "meeting of the minds" (which is what contracts must be), as there was no product to offer at that time. Remember, the product was "CGC graded books of unknown grade and page quality." You cannot make a contract for purchase of items that do not exist if you cannot establish price and quality of said items at the time of the contract. You might could get away with unstated quality, but certainly not unstated price. Such a "contract" cannot exist. (thumbs u

that would be kinda fun, wouldn't it...?

"count on him" is not a contract. Sorry, kid.

You should be "commited" for your butchery of the English language alone.

Well, wading through this illiterate, nonsensical, paragraph-deficient, all-caps stuck whiny crybaby rant was an effort, but this particular "segment" has quite the ring of lie to it. I don't know anyone who says "oh, go ahead, just send them to CGC, and no matter what the grades or the prices are, I'll buy them." Totally ignoring buttheadcollectibles' comment about LETTING HIM KNOW GRADE/PAGE QUALITY, which IMPLIES that the customer would then have the option to CHOOSE which items he then wanted to purchase. Sorry, Butt Head Collectibles....you're out of gas, and you have succeeded only in digging your own grave a little deeper.

This poor fool has no clue what he's just done, does he.....? A shame.

Oh. Oh my.

I'm gonna order a mid-grade slabbed run of Rom #40-60 from the guy....

Thanks, Lauren...I've just spent the last half hour listening to half of Look Sharp... I haven't heard these songs in YEARS. I wore out that tape YEARS ago... Thank you for taking me down memory lane. Just finished "Dangerous"

Nuff Said not Neat Stuff Oops. Sorry about that. Brain fart...I just woke up from a nap. Will fix my post. What about the rest of them? ( )

I hate clams in my e-mails....

So you're younger than I am. Well, you're in your 50's, right....? So yes. (duck)

Sad, but true. His profile is a mess. Clearly, the guy has issues. I was half expecting to find myself in that list, as I usually do, but oddly enough, I wasn't there this time. Oh, and I'm listening to "Listen to your heart" right now... Roxette was Huh-UGE when I was in high school.

Good question, but dare I say my dad has a rather unique email address? I'm not sure of many American's with the name 'Roxette' in their email. But even if it was a case of mistaking identity, wouldn't the seller notice eventually? Does he have the look? He should listen to his heart....

Want list or not, you do NOT spend money "on" a customer without a clear agreement IN WRITING as to the details FIRST.

You should not feel bad about this at all. You and your dad have done nothing wrong, according to this exchange. It's yet another example of a dealer with no clue how to treat customers. This guy should thank his lucky stars that he deals in an industry where customers allow dealers to treat them so poorly, and think they can behave like jackarses with no consequence. Here's what this jagoff forgot: 1. You are the CUSTOMER. You have PAID HIS BILLS. The very least he OWES you is common courtesy and decency, NOT hostility and anger. It continues to boggle my mind how many dealers think their CUSTOMERS OWE THEM something. MIND EFFING BOGGLING. 2. He should have gotten a CLEAR agreement, IN WRITING, preferably with a DEPOSIT, before sending anything in to be graded. that's his fault, and if he made the assumption, that's just too damn bad. 3. There is no excuse...none...for swearing at a customer. None. Ever. NEVER. Sadly, this will never change until ALL customers STOP giving their money to dealers who behave like this. It CAN be done, but only if EVERYONE will do it. And, unfortunately, "gotta have 'em all" trumps that the vast majority of the time. I am angry with you, Lauren.

They weren't in the large stack of ashcans that Jay Company got from the Image offices in about 2002 (when I bought mine.) Jay Company would frequently go to the Image Offices in Orange, CA, and clear them out of all their "old variant stuff", including the ashcans. These were in a lot of about 200 ashcans they got, mostly Stormwatch. In this batch, there were 10 Black #2s, 1 Black #3, 35 Red #1s and 8 or so Blue #1s. I bought them all. In this context, it may have been that these were the only ones left. I don't know, as this is the only time I ever was able to buy blacks. There have been 2-3 Black #1s, 4-5 Black #2s, and ZERO Black #3s for sale on eBay since at least 2000. Maybe Sam Keith still has them. I'll have to try and track him down, but someone said he was living in England right now.

what does it look like

I got all excited....I thought it would be another Maxx #3 Black. Has anyone...anyone at all...seen another copy? :shrug:

Minus the duplicates? Probably about 30-40K.
