  1. Just about every publisher/genre has a thread dedicated to them here in GA, so you can posts your books that way, or you can post them in this thread to keep them all in one place (thumbs u
  2. Not sure why you were having such a hard finding a copy. These are just a few copies that I have saved in my database from the last 2 1/2 years: 5.0 C/OW 8.5 W 4.0 OW/W 5.5 OW/W 6.5 W 7.5 OW and if I look harder I'll find more (pretty sure a 9.0 was auctioned off within the last year)
  3. Doing business with David was an absolute pleasure. Easy to negotiate with, fast payment, and a genuinely nice person. Congrats on the Wonderworld 7
  4. That's amazing! Btw, how did that 46 4.0 get in there? It's the red-headed stepchild of your run
  5. Not sure if this is the proper place to post this info, but what the hell. I received an email about a new website that'll be selling limited edition Walking Dead posters. There are three different ones that go on sale Sunday in editions of 400 for the regular print & 75 for the variant. I have no interest in these, but figured some on here might. Here's the body of the email with all the pertinent info: Hello everyone, We hope you all are well and having a great week! We're very excited about our new endeavor, TWENTY EYES COLLECTIVE. And we wanted you to be the first to know about it! What is TWENTY EYES COLLECTIVE? We're so glad you asked! Well, for starters, it is a new web site and it can be found here: http://www.20eyesco.com/ But honestly, it's more than that. It's an opportunity for the artists who work with us to have a chance to do some other projects that they really enjoy, and have those pieces available under one umbrella. It could be posters (movie, gig, art print, or anything else), t-shirts, toys, stickers....heck, anything that strikes their fancy! And while you probably will see Cinema Overdrive posters and show info here as well, this site will be much more than that. But if you like what we do (and the artists who do it for us), then you'll have a place to see some really cool, fun stuff both in the immediate future and beyond! ...and we're extremely excited about the first pieces that will be available at TWENTY EYES COLLECTIVE starting on Sunday, February 12th! Official "Zombies of 'THE WALKING DEAD'" prints Emmy Award winning special effects artist Greg Nicotero has been a fan of Danny Miller's artwork for some time now. So when he got the official go-ahead from AMC Television to have his zombies turned into a limited edition set of posters, Danny was the first person he contacted. This is a project that Greg really wanted to do and has been instrumental in making happen. And the results are amazing! "The Zombies of The Walking Dead" is a set of 3 limited edition prints featuring walkers from Season 2 of THE WALKING DEAD. Each print (a run of 400 each and 75 variants) depict the hideous undead in a 7-color silk screen process. The beasts of the hour are: -The RV walker that stalks Andrea in the season premiere -The WELL WALKER in episode 5 -The BEARDED WALKER (to appear in an upcoming episode) This artwork was designed and created directly from photos taken by award winning make-up effects designer and co-executive producer Greg Nicotero on set during production and licensed by AMC! The size of each silk screened print is 14" x 30" and all prints are signed by both Greg Nicotero and artist Danny Miller. Each print is individually numbered as well! The cost will be $40 per print (or $110.00 for a set of all 3) plus shipping and handling (pricing on variants is still TBD) These prints will be available 10:30 PM EST on Feb 12th at http://www.20eyesco.com/ to coincide with the mid season premiere of THE WALKING DEAD. Here are a couple of quick teaser pics of just one of the three prints from the set: Please don't email us now, as there is nothing presently available (relax, this email is merely 'info only'!) AMC is making an official announcement about the release of these sets this week, but we wanted to make sure everyone who has supported us since the beginning got the news first. So be sure to check it out on Sunday evening. Thanks everyone! You guys are the best!
  6. Not sure how it works in the Focused auctions, as I never follow those, but in the Featured auctions you have 30 seconds in-between lots
  7. See if you can get Dupont to man-up before the CAL haters PM him to stop to get all their gossip straight... CAL can man up too Sorry, I was busy trying to remember how to use the ignore function. Anyway, what I heard is this. A new member joined the forum. Just as it has happened many times in my experience, this person was immediately accused of being a shill. From what I hear you had a large role (maybe a solo role) in successfully convincing the mods this person was a shill, getting the account permanently deactivated. This person being a new member had no idea what had happened and called CGC to see why the account was banned. All was cleared up, the account was reinstated, and life continued on. Not registering at all. I wouild need to see the banned name, other circumstances, such as they were libeling me or calamerica-collectibles somehow, if what you say IS true, I will admit it immediately. But as of now, I really don't recall and can't recall without more specifics. CAL sticking to his ideas and guns You know who he's talking about. Stop the BS. You thought the person in question was a shill for Stu and got them banned. The person called CGC and proved they weren't Stu and their ID was reinstated. Like this has happened more than once. Please
  8. Um, I hope she never sees Steve Martin's cat juggling routine or she'd have a nervous breakdown
  9. Depends who's behind the shill. Some add character (see Stu, Bug) and others are tools (see everyone else)
  10. He could put someone on his list
  11. And still trying to sell the Superman #1 Larson with no back cover for $100,000? presumably Did this Larson copy of Sups #1 ever sell? I wonder why Theo would sell Supes #1 when according to his article, it's the comic book equivalent of the Hognus Wagner card, the ultimate, ultimate comic book, and the most undervalued comic book in existence. It's called hyping a book to sell it
  12. And greggy is a poopie head Ellen's missing front tooth is finally coming out. She will finally be complete by Chicago. Just in time to pester you
  13. From what we can piece together it probably went something like this: they thought they could get more than what John had offered. The truth was very different, so they reached out to the highest offer they'd received. What John paid was what he had intially offered them. I just reread Brad's original statement and he said the deal was finalized on Wednesday, the same day you said John got a call that the Seller accepted his standing offer from weeks before. Brad also said the seller sold the books to John for more than 2X Brad's offer. It doesn't make sense that the seller would accept an offer from Brad for less than half of John's original offer. I suspect John's original offer was lowball, the seller struck a deal with Brad, called John whereupon he doubled Brad's offer. Brad was obviousy used for leverage in all of this.
  14. I acted an as intermediary between the buyer and the sellers Sounds like neither you nor Brad did anything wrong, and the sellers were going back and forth trying to get the best deal without revealing how far along the first offer really was. That's the conclusion we came to. After agreeing to Brad's offer, they figured that "John's" previous offer was far better and reached out to re-open negotiations. Everyone, with exception of the sellers, was in the dark about what was going on
  15. I acted an as intermediary between the buyer and the sellers Did Holyghost have an explanation for all of this? Sorta. When we met at the bank, at one point the conversation got around to offers that had been made for the collection. Suffice it say that HG's version of the story didn't jive with Brad's. I've known Brad for a few years and trust him implicitly, so you know who's side I believed
