  1. You want hassle. I'll give you hassle the next time. :hail: Canadian porn industry? All I can picture is a flurry of fuddwear and stocking caps...., My private list is large and you're on it, fool Have you guys ever considered changing the name of this to the "COMICAL board"? I don't know whether to laugh or cry...
  2. Just HELPING the afflicted... Is there a chapter of CA around? I think I need one...
  3. Just blame HIM, he's taller and I had them years ago... I was ahead of my times.. and you have a PM, too,
  4. Yeah...but then you SWOOPED down and... BTW, I just sent you a PM, I have a book on your list:)
  5. Thanks...I think I need to take them off the floor though... it's amazing how old these are...
  6. Thank you to Rick for turning me on to these, to Billy for NOT buying them when they were offered to him... but mostly to my friend Richard for Selling them to me when they were still available I think there is even a Paratrooper cover hidden in the 2nd book...
  7. Perhaps the "outing" kvetching, should be posted in some kind of format. Purchased ....date not received.... Ordered .....date...not paid We all tend to be emotional when we think we are being wronged, and it's understandable, that's why Divad's list was so wonderful, he was calm as he posted it. I know that I was reluctant to mention Joker-Fish before someone else did, 1, because I consider myself new in comparison to most others, and 2, cause...well, I've never been an "Old Boy" ...but the bottom line is SHARING information. I don't know Brent, I'm sure he's a lovely person...I'm sure he's a great business person...but as a buyer, I'd like the information that he's a little backed up, and it appears that he's a little backed up in more than one transaction. If I had known that about Lighthouse, I would not have purchased from him. Same with Comic Supply. I also think the fact that Brent responded here, promptly should be taken into consideration, and that he responded with a tracking number. That was enough to satisfy ME as a potential shopper...most of the others, have not responded...The ones that do, I mark as OK in my mind...cluttered though it may be... Information is important, you don't want to discourage new people from posting information that might be important to the community, so...some kind of format, so it can be matter of fact, might help that....just my own
  8. Kudos to Pirate, for 3 fabulous books from the VCC, that I just love...Jumbo, Jungle and WW These are just beautiful and I love them! thank you!
  9. You are SO very welcome, Neal, it was truly my pleasure... thanks again

  12. Awww, she's SO cute, Ze...thanks for the picture...(and my daughter has/had the same red hair:) Wait till she finds the drawings INSIDE the book... Glad they arrived safely and ... Ellen:
  13. Nice shot, Ronaldo!! I hope to have 3 more next week to replace 3 of mine, might not be VG, but we will see:)
  14. Kudos to Ze-man Ciorac Solitaire One and Jayman for purchasing wonderful items at my VCC sale, for being all so charming and so nice, making the sale fun!..(and paying quickly) the books are all in the mail! Special Kudos to my old friend FourthWorld, for buying my charity item. Payment has been sent to Susan G Komen! Thanks so much! (worship)
  15. I know it's frustrating ...and I certainly have been frustrated...but I think it's an honor system. The difference between here and Ebay is that there really is a community here, and people earn trust in different ways, not just by feedback numbers. I don't think we can require anything...returns, actually getting books, getting them on time, certainly not packing. I ASSUMED that everyone did accept returns, but obviously I was wrong. It's also a gamble when you trust a new person...some times you win, and it's a pleasant experience, sometimes you lose. For me, I'm going to keep on trusting, cause I'm happier that way...and I know the items that frustrated me, are going to go to a good cause...and that will make a difference. I also know people trusted me when I started, here...even though I came with very decent feedback, they were still taking a chance. I appreciate that, and I'm going to continue to pass it on. Everyone has some differences, but the people on here as a whole, have been stellar...and personally, I'm not going to let one bad apple rattle my tree. I'm not terribly sorry I rattled theirs, maybe just a little... but...I'm not perfect...and I sure have made errors, but I bend over backwards to fix them and I really admire the sellers I have dealt with who have done that, even more than the ones who have been perfect (not to say that being perfect is a bad thing, if anyone here is... ..
  16. Awww...the pleasure was absolutely mine, Russ...you are a dream to work with , and it was a lot of fun! I am always happy when my treasures go to nice people! Thanks for the warpspeed payment and hope to see you at the VCC!
  17. You are so very welcome, Rick! I was so glad you liked them! and I really DID want to keep them once I saw them.. but...now you have me hooked, I expect the rest in next week....
  18. Well, it's too bad Joe... cause I forgive you...I'm not perfect...and I don't expect anyone else to be. Nick is right, it really was just the PMs...it's frustrating when you try to be nice and you KNOW someone has read the PM, but doesn't answer...don't know whether the person has been hit by a truck, or ...is just...not thinking cause there are other emotional or other issues going on, and they are just being a little rude. Like I said, I believed you...and I really enjoyed our chats, so please don't disappear... I am SO glad to see you post...now...just get your stuff together and come back, cause I've been warned yet again, I'm not allowed to hug on this board..*sniff* but I would:) Thanks again for posting, I can now trust people again:) !! (thumbs u (not that I ever really stopped;) As far as I am concerned, this is no longer a probation issue, it's been amicably resolved.
  19. Me too...we all know stuff happens, life doesn't always work out the way we plan...I thought he was very nice and I hope he just gets it all together.
  20. I believe Hush had childcare problems. I know he had PM'd me to purchase some Hulk books I had on a sales thread, and then we had discussed many more books, which he also said he would take ...I hadn't listed the rest of the Hulks I wanted to sell, because he was "taking" most of them. He did then PM me and said he had babysitting problems and I offered to take a very small deposit, about 5 percent and let him pay the rest out over a very long period. I didn't really get an answer, although he answered the PM. He then listed on the sales thread, saying he had childcare problems. I believed him...he was very sincere...and there lies the problem...I didn't have an in a thread...and I really did feel sorry for him...but I PM'd several times, how things were going and asking if he was still interested, he read them and never responded. I just wanted to know, if I should sell the Hulks he had wanted so much...I didn't want to sell them out from under him. I had gotten very good feedback about him, and he really seemed genuine... Perhaps sometimes people get embarrassed...and I understand that, too...so that's what I figured...I was going to give it a few more weeks and just list them if I didn't hear. However, that's no excuse for not sending out art that someone paid for on a sales thread...and that is the reason I am posting this here, so you know it wasn't just a problem for Nick. It's difficult, I don't want to not believe people, but I am disturbed about the art not being sent out. On Ebay, I know if I don't get paid within 15 days, I shouldn't expect to...perhaps the time should be shorter. 30 days for International shipping sounds reasonable...I bought something from the VCC from Canada, and I think it took 21 days? The postmark was right on the package.
