    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...:)

    I would like to apologize to everyone that I have been involved with in deals with over the last month or so.

     

    I have things greater than comics going on in my life right now, and has made things very difficult for me.

     

    However, that is no excuse for my behavior recently.

     

    The OA is on the way as we speak, and for Flaming_Telepath, and Skypinkblu, I profoundly apologize for not being able to follow through. You are correct, I am embarassed, and that is why I have been absent of late.

     

    I do not want or expect forgiveness, as I will probably not be around much, if at all anymore.

     

    Again, my apologizes to all.

     

    Joe

     

    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.

    Get the hint yet guys. :cool:

     

     

    Sorry to hear about Hush. He seemed like a decent fellow. Hope things work out. :wishluck:

     

    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.

    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 :takeit: 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.

    Major major kudos to both alecholland (Erich) and 143ksk (Steve).

     

    Erich for a super sweet deal on some vintage Dell WDC&S for my girls to read, a bigger lot and all in nicer shape than I expected. They've promised to take care of them. (thumbs u

     

    Steve for sending a righteous batch of Gold Key and Gladstone Scrooge books for FREE to my kids. :headbang:

     

    It was great - they both arrived the same day - so they didn't fight over who got to open the packages.

     

    Thanks again guys

     

     

    :applause::applause::applause:

     

    It was my pleasure. Thanks for the fast payment!

     

    Kudos to GACollectibles and skypinkblu for some nice Mighty Mouse books.

     

    Also, kudos to cd4ever for a pile of books both graded and raw. Always a great guy to deal with.

     

    And finally, thanks to ft88 for a great group of Thor books and some really nice Adventure Comics.

     

    I've had plenty of time to read all my new books too :cloud9: since I've had to sleep on the couch for spending about triple my budget last month. :insane:

     

    Had I known, I would have sent more books, at least you could have used them as a pillow...;) Kudos to YOU, for being such a great person to deal with! (worship)
