  1. It's funny...someone was selling a Bats #428 for a BIN of $259. Noting the severe downward trend in these books, I offered the guy $200...noting that TWICE in the last three months, the book has sold for less than that on Heritage. The guy got snooty, suggested I "check out gpanalysis.com for real offers"...then accepted an offer of $220. Which I would have paid. Douches galore.
  2. I'd lean more towards sociopath - here's a good discussion of it: "The main characteristic of a sociopath is a disregard for the rights of others. Sociopaths are also unable to conform to what society defines as a normal personality. Antisocial tendencies are a big part of the sociopath's personality. This pattern usually comes into evidence around the age of 15. If it is not treated, it can develop into adulthood. Visible symptoms include physical aggression and the inability to hold down a steady job. The sociopath also finds it hard to sustain relationships and shows a lack of regret in his or her actions. A major personality behavior trait is the violation of the rights of others. This can appear as a disregard for the physical or sexual wellbeing of another. Although these symptoms are all present, they may not always be evident. Research has shown that the sociopath is usually a person with an abundance of charm and wit. He or she may appear friendly and considerate, but these attributes are usually superficial. They are used as a way of blinding the other person to the personal agenda behind the sociopath's behaviour." Sound familiar...?
  3. I was thinking the same thing when I saw your post When do they update the census? When they have a chance to update it, they do. Usually, it's every 1-2 months, shorter during off-season, longer during the summer.
  4. That's nice. That means there's at LEAST 8 on the next update.
  5. Right above the Crow's head. It's silver and doesn't reflect from the angle I took the picture at. Maybe it's a vampire signature....
  6. Are you stupid? I am not Russ! I know him but I am not Russ. Are you Clive? Nope. Clive Jr. ? Nope I have nothing to do with CS at all except I know Russ. I look to buy HG batman books and caps. Got any to sale I have some Batman caps for sale....what's your size...?
  7. Are you stupid? I am not Russ! I know him but I am not Russ. This is me. Jeff That's not very nice of you calling Rock stupid. Didn't you notice he gave you an extra mile? That's me, always giving the extra mile.... (thumbs u
  8. Are you stupid? I am not Russ! I know him but I am not Russ. This is me. Jeff I'll believe it when the two of you are standing next to each other....
  9. PM Sent DHP 24 Mine is 9.8 plus. So, it's a 9.9...? I'm confuzzled. See what I get for being slow and dull? i was thinking the same thing He's kidding...and I was making a reference joke...
  10. Lord, Russ/Clive/BellaDonna/comicfanatic20/9milemax...how do you sleep at night, knowing you've stolen money from so many people? INTENDING to send the goods doesn't make it any less theft.
  11. You know, I'm gettin' REAL SICK AND TIRED of not being able to find relevant Family Guy clips on the internet!!!
  12. PM Sent DHP 24 Mine is 9.8 plus. So, it's a 9.9...? I'm confuzzled. See what I get for being slow and dull?
  13. Last new stuff. Sorry for my poor pic taking abilities. Very pleased with these. Allred goodness. Under represented on the census. For Sean. I'll never get enough of McFarlane Amazings. #316 especially. Albedo First Black Cat...White Pages. How Appropriate. Soon to be winging it's way across the pond... Finally got a high grade one. I had set these three aside for years. Finally graded 'em. #9's got WP. Yay. My oldest self-subbed 9.8 to date. My first John Byrne X-9.8 And finally.... My very first self-subbed Silver Age book...and appropriately enough, it's Batman #200, one of the very first Silver Age books I actively sought out, way back in 1990-1991.
  14. Oh...no...please, not that. Whatever shall I do...? Oh, I know. Carry on as usual.
  15. Sorry Cs I have to call you on this. He did nothing but try to offer you advice to help you repair some of your rep on here, and you bashed him and started to insult him. His current attitude has nothing to do with liking you, I don't think. Big difference between offering advice and taking a step back, and continuing to monitor every response of mine to make sure it goes along with his said advice. I didn't need to hear it 350x in a row from him. He speaks as if he is some GOD of the internet, or some inventor of commerce. He didn't see the valid points of anything I was saying. He acted as if he did some big favor to me. Too much of a good thing I guess. Many people who say things like "you think you know it ALL, don't you" say that because someone has said something that they know to be true, deep down, but it shames them because they are behaving contrary to that truth, so they lash out at the speaker to mask their shame. I'm fairly certain that holds true here, as well. As it stands, I don't care about you one way or the other, and you're certainly not worth actively disliking. It's just one more attempt to make yourself appear a victim, deflecting blame onto someone else, instead of choosing to fix your problems. For the record, you have no valid points. There remains nothing you can say but "I'm sorry, I screwed up" and nothing you can do but actively fix it, that will repair your standing.
  16. No I'm not him matter of fact Detroit Mike meet me at the comic con in Novi Michigan and I have others to back me up Kimik, MCMILES, Bob Storms know I'm not Russ. I guess your wrong on that point "AS A matter of fact"..."matter of fact" is lazy hick talk. "met" "you're" Spelling is our FRIEND. And how can someone be wrong when they're laying down odds? (hint: they can't.) Is that the best you can do? Come on you can do better than that. I just proved to you that I'm not Russ and you insult me because I screwed up in grammar I give up you are the king. The best I can do? Yeah, that's pretty much the most appropriate response to your post there is, so yes. You haven't proven anything. You offered testimony on your own behalf, which has yet to be verified independently. And insult you? You think educating you on proper spelling and grammar is an insult...? Really? Your poor teachers.
  17. My bad I'm sorry Rock please forgive me You're forgiven. This time.
  18. No I'm not him matter of fact Detroit Mike meet me at the comic con in Novi Michigan and I have others to back me up Kimik, MCMILES, Bob Storms know I'm not Russ.

  19. Anyone wanna lay down odds on 8Mile being CS and/or his wife?
  20. I told you how to fix things, but you responded with a flippant "I don't need your help" attitude. I tell you once again: go make things right. Stop responding to the angry comments of others with hostile comments of your own. Be humble. Apologize, whether you think you owe it or not. Show some contrition....over a long period of time. And fix each and every single outstanding issue BEFORE trying to sell again. I guarantee you, there is not a single person who can argue against the above advice. None. And I didn't invent it...I merely pass it along. If you continue to doubt the wisdom of my advice, you will continue to wonder why things won't work. Oh, and please control BellaDonna.
