Big kudos to seanfingh for my first ever board sale!

Wow! Those are amazing Angelo! Wolverton's stuff is always disturbing.

Mmmmm.... a 2 o'clock rock ...

Is that some secret code to tip off the Hawaiian Crew?

The best thing to do would be to just make it an SA selling thread, and we can take care of your GA offerings via PM. Wow, thanks Jon for your quick payment! Now I won't have to bother people with these pre-code and GGA books. (thumbs u Oh, come on. For Church books at $100 a pop you would've done the same thing. Great! Now we can get back to Bronze and Copper reader copies! (thumbs u

Well, I'll name names. And the first name would be mine. I'm pretty certain that Richard is talking about me. And he has a good point. Even if he's not talking about me, I'm guilty of what he's saying. So, for my part, I apologize to those of you who feel like Richard does. It's easy to get caught up in trying to move stuff and to forget that after a round or two, others might be sick of seeing the same old stuff. I also apologize for having two threads on the front page at the moment, as I didn't mean to do that. I think what skynwalker said, happens to the best of us, and I applaud him for the apology...I know I've had OLD threads bumped by someone else and I was embarrassed to see two threads on the front page. I don't deliberately do that, but it happens. What was bugging me, was that Comic Supply listed some Marvel Masterworks, with a LINK to his Website, and then in a separate thread, he posted Overstreets, with a link to his website, both times, the books were being sold for the same price ON the website...I know, because I looked, figuring maybe this was a board special. He must have been asked to move the Overstreet thread, because he did that, but then posted a 3rd thread, advising people that the thread was moved to the Dealer thread. SAME thing happened last year...and to me, stuff like that is deliberate, and just a total disregard for people who at least TRY to play fair. I really do not need to have another spat with him, but I figured, I'd just spit it out... Damn straight! Of course it's deliberate, and a perfect example of "sort of" adhering to the Guidelines. I'd pay full retail before I'd deal with people like that.

None of the best board sellers (who also manage to move the majority of their books), seem to need multiple threads. I'd just recommend Appropriate Thread Titling. (thumbs u

I didn’t see it necessary to name names, since any list (like the one Dr. Banner put together) is mostly just the list of the moment. Tomorrow or the next day is likely to be the same situation but with different people. And it doesn’t take cut-and-dry guideline-breaking to make a mess, there’s threads that manage to stay within the guidelines but remain questionable as well as willy-nilly posting that lessens the quality of life, so to speak, in the Selling Forum. It’s become such a hodgepodge that I skip the majority of threads, whereas I used to check almost all of them out. And I have no problem with re-listing a book, sometimes it may take more than once to find a buyer (esp. if it’s a certain Hulk 172 ), but if a book isn’t selling repeatedly it’s either priced too high or has no market in this market. Dr. Banner – you forgot Nicka.

You forgot selling things you have LISTED on Ebay and or or on your website , or books graded by the "other" guys;) Stupid me! Nah, no names, just venting. I'm probably imagining things. Everybody else seems happy. (Except for Divad, he's never happy.)

This Forum just turns into a bigger mess by the day. Bumping a sales thread a dozen times when the books aren’t moving? No problem! Running a sales thread with the same groups of books over and over for 6 months? No problem! Certain books aren’t selling? Pull ‘em out and start a new thread. Maybe somebody will want them if they’re listed separately this time. Let’s not forget to start multiple threads either! Gotta make sure we take up as much front page real estate as possible. Guidelines? What guidelines? This is great! We now have a free version on an ebay store!

The stickied threads have fancy new titles!

Doesn't seem that way to me. There are many, many, many sales threads popping up lately, but everything on the first page looks within the guidelines upon a cursory glance.

What's up lately with people asking for free shipping on $5 and $10 books? I'm cheap as can be but I don't go around basically asking for something for nothing.

If somebody ever tries to quick-post me out of a Plop or Not Brand Echh, there'll be heck to pay!

I don't think you'd find mine too entertaining. I make Aces look like Rockefeller.

Kudos again to cd4ever for some great books and always entertaining sales threads! (thumbs u

Buttkis?

Dammit! I saw a post by Greggy here, hoping he was trying to rebut being added to the list but instead all I got was a crummy graemlin.

Here's some recent pre-hero Marvels I picked up from our own atlasfan. As usual with my collection of Stan Goldberg Grey Atlas Covers, not HG but far from beaters: This one had an accident, here's the "before" version: And last but not least, a pal in Bangor sent me this one she found in a house she's working on:

Fresh from last week's appearance here.

Kudos to that crazy Canadian king of junky books for a few VCC purchases!

FFs, Thors, Hulks. HG Omac 6, Mister Miracle 4. Early Defenders, MTIO, MTU.

Yarg! It's drivin' me nuts!
