    I don’t seem to have the problems with ebay that many other posters do. My experience mirrors that of NWO’s and fastballspecial’s. Although my volume is only a fraction of those guys, I sell enough to maintain top-rated status and pretty much have only had minimal issues since ’99. If folks don’t want to sell on ebay anymore that’s fine by me, there’ll be less competition for sales!

    Can't recall where the chip/tear on #215 came from, but I think it came of the rack like that. It looks like an open-top 4-mil Mylar snag but it's never been in one of those.

    Prices have been returning to pre-pandemic levels (and normalcy) for quite a while. The GPA 90 day average is $61, with numerous other sales in the $50 range and even some in the $40s. There's over 1500 9.6s in the census and over 1200 9.8s.

    Sorry to say I was never a fan of Herbie.

    Rats! I never started a thread that was this popular before.

    As of yesterday, I was still receiving outbid email notifications plus general emails about the current auction sessions. On Sunday morning when I started this thread, their home page would open and load and then a Hentai sexytime page would load in its place. I think I also got a phony Firefox update page on one of my attempts.

    Okay, this should put me current.

    I'm hoping to get some scanning done tomorrow, have had too much work to do. This part of the run is kind of a pain since it's spread out over different boxes.

    I first knew of him from the HBO Special and Letterman appearances and of course was a big fan of the Pee Wee's Playhouse. Besides the great actors, the show featured set design by Gary Panter, music by Mark Motherbaugh of Devo including the opening theme which was sung by Cyndi Lauper! R.I.P. Mr. Reubens.

    Sounds like good ol' "Two-Bit" Joe. Though he would probably pick out his 10 books and then start trying to haggle.

    Yeah, it seems to be working normally for me now.

    Anybody else having trouble accessing Clink? After I open the website and the page loads, other sites load in it's place.

    The big 200th issue! How far are we going with this? Until the Byrne issues?

    Unlike everyone else who's been posting recently, I was starting to get kind of bored with the FF at this point in the series. The stories and art weren't doing it for me so much anymore, but I kept buying them. This thread and the Silver Forum equivalent have been a great motivation for me to scan my books.

    Catchup again.

    Welp, I have the 30 that matter. Which doesn't mean the first 30. Nor those grades.
