  1. you just killed me congrats chromium , THIS IS THE GRAIL
  2. Fantastic Four Collecting Thread on page 3 of silver age forum ok here's another FF cgc 9.4 i 've just received, a really glossy 95
  3. I disagree. As a seller I have no problem doing time payments or installments -- as long as it is discussed in advance of the person pulling the trigger. In fact, if I'm selling a big ticket book I'd expect people to ask about time payments. I don't want this to be a thread that makes people think that if they can't cough up the dough right away they'll end up in the public square stocks with people throwing tomatoes at them As long as it's approved up front there should no problems with paying over time. Communication is the key to any successful transaction. But even with time payments...you do expect part of the payment to be paid right away don't you ? Not necessarily. If somebody contacted me and said they were sincerely interested in a book or art but needed some time to come up with money, and they were someone with a good reputation, I wouldn't need a downpayment immediately. But again, it depends on the situation and the buyer. If somebody pulled the trigger on something and then after the fact said they couldn't pay me for a month, well that's a problem. If they pulled the trigger and tried to string me along for weeks that would be a problem (and that's what this thread is for!) But if somebody contacts me and says they can pay but they need time, and I say ok, then I it's all good. As long as they make payments when they say they will, I am willing to work it out to both parties' satisfaction. The bottom line is that payment circumstances can be flexible, and things like delayed payments or installments should be worked out in advance. I just don't think this thread should be a place where people try to imply that their own payment policies should be everyone's policies. If a seller only wants immediate payment, they should say so in their FS thread. I'll do the same with "Time Payments happily accepted if worked out in advance" i accept your pov Rhino, but when i was a kid, my parents taught me to buy when i had money in my pocket , and i say it again maybe that's not you but i consider if a seller is posting books it's because he needs money to buy something else or whatever he wants , then immediate cash ,if you can accept time payment great for you , but it's not the same for everybody here problem for people here : is how can i do to be paid and not have problems with some forumites ?, i think (and i'm working in a bank, i know what i'm talking about), you've to be strict on your work with people, if you've never had any problems you're lucky, maybe someday you'll have in front of you a buyer who is always PMing you with (i will... next month...i swear) , and that's why people here are fed up with all that, i don't think its a pleasure for them to write names of forumites, you say it : " If they pulled the trigger and tried to string me along for weeks that would be a problem " then i say it again to be satisfied for seller and buyer only one solution: BUY ON THIS BOARD ONLY IF YOU CAN PAY IT RIGHT NOW , OTHERWISE PASS YOUR WAY why can't we do a new forum "time payment books for sale" , only joking Rhino, i've bought you books in the past and i swear i'll never ask for time payment for our next business
  4. i'm agree Chromium,that's not an easy way, but i'm sure sometimes it is necessary to do this sort of thread , you know what i mean when i pm or on this board i paypal asap, sellers are here to find $$ maybe to buy other piece of dream , i 'm not here to loose my time or their i think : BUY ON THIS BOARD ONLY IF YOU CAN PAY IT RIGHT NOW , OTHERWISE PASS YOUR WAY
