  1. Same here. Page opened right in the middle of them and I thought "Greggy!" Super sweet Jimmy Olsen.
  2. Sorry, but Why all the drama then? Re-read, he was talking about the person with the book in his sig line Obvious from MT1000's now edited post, but not when I made the quote. Don't you have some magazine clippings to add to your Betty White scrapbook?
  3. I thought you couldn't drink anymore? Had a night on Tremont Street, too. I just caught up, opened a Sierra Nevada Torpedo and turned on the Backyardigans.
  4. I'll be gone for a few hours. If this thread is too by the time I get back, it's been real guys!
  5. Too soon for any points. This'll keep rolling for a few hours more I'd guess.
  6. If you can't tell this is a Woman with a Capital "W" you were distracted by comics the day your Dad was explaining the birds and bees. There are shemales that, fully clothed, you would never know were men. We all know they exist. Prove it. Next thing you know you'll be telling us that tubby, naked men wearing Spiderman body paint exist.
  7. Just you wait. I hear Archie can suck the dimples off of a golf ball. I heard it was the chrome off a bumper.
  8. -1 on Not the same book.... I'm a dope and clicked the wrong button, I meant crack of course.
  9. A pedigree presser? FU RU @ssuming he's talking about comics....., :shrug: It's the guilt.
  10. I'm not trying to egg you on in this situation. But last time something blew up, you threatened people, promised to F their mothers, and all sorts of irrational challenges. I'd recommend not going down that path again, and threatening fellow board members. Especially sending emails demanding someone's personal info, which CGC would never expose themselves like that without a court order. Just go the path of truth, and if anything after looking this book over you felt CGC made a mistake. It is very clear this is the same book. The only mistake was not revealing in the sales thread this was formly graded by CGC and pressed. I think that is what has folks up in arms, and rightly so. Bosco...Thanks for taking a rational approach here with this comment. You are right about "last time" I did blow up and I shouldn't have. I am not making any threats here....I am simply stating the facts....Krypto has defamed me publicly, if I have legal recourse I will in fact be taking that path. No threats....just hoping he is ready to back up his very big mouth . I have done nothing wrong here. Just because I have sold the books doesn't make me guilty, also have done nothing to him personally . I should know by tomorrow what recourse I have of a legal sort.I also have a call into someone that actually witnessed me selling the CGC 8.5 at WonderCon. POOF! WE WANT POOF! I have a feeling I'm going to be eating a lot of popcorn tonight
  11. How would CGC "knowingly" bump a grade? If they receive a slabbed book, it's cracked out before reaching the grading staff's hands.
  12. Jerry - You sure he changed his name? Arch gave him a vacation on Saturday.
  13. Andy’s post makes me feel like a mean-spirited curmudgeon, and I didn’t post in that thread, but jeez, come on! That was a seriously addled sales thread. Who is going to drop $1700 on anything sight unseen from someone they don’t know? And the premise of ASM 129 thread was almost as goofy.
  14. This is gonna sound snarky but it's not. You must be living in a different Connecticut than I've lived in all my life. It gets humid as HELL here in the summer. No, not Florida humid or Louisiana humid but still pretty damn humid. Plus, your comic room is on the third floor? Only the attic will be hotter and more humid in the summer. What he said. I’m a bit farther north up in MA, but I don’t think the climate is all that different. It gets powerful humid here. You can get a hygrometer for about $15 at Home Depot. I’d strongly recommend one for your storage room to monitor humidity. Wide humidity fluctuations as as bad as wide temperature fluctuations.
  15. Always nice to see those reprint titles with new cover art.
  16. No that all this discussion isn't worth having, but it's ironic mikeggg has made all of 2 posts in 2 months since he joined; I wouldn't be surprised if we don't hear from him again.
