  1. So says the dancing chicken....... You must be a really bad mind reader. Since you think to know what I was thinking... Which was/is 100% wrong... Doesn't KFC have a job for you?

     

    Since you're making jokes about the potential job availability to some forum members...I've insulted you, make fun of mine. please.

  2. p.s. my spelling is a little "off".

     

     

    Not to worry, you could spell words using nothing other than wing dings, duct tape and the letter "Q" and you'd still be more accurate and clear than any of the silly excuses, rationalization, and failure to take responsibility we have seen by the subject of the last 120 or so posts.

  4. The newest addition to my comic room arrived today! I know I'm geeky, but hey I gotta be me and I am thrilled with it

     

    :)

    Was this the one they offered in previews a few months ago?

     

    If that chair doesn't cry "dork" I don't know what the hell does. sorry, internal monologue has been turned off.

  5. Ouch, how does one not figure out that they can't afford a $25k book....seriously, shouldn't take 5 months.
    one should have realized this long ago and not dragged it on and on and on, taking advantage of filter81

     

    That's what I just said :makepoint:

    you left off the taking advantage part :baiting:

     

    You're never taking advantage of me again! Never drinking around you again (tsk)

  6. I gave him an hour to get his boots off before I replied. (shrug)
    He actually uses velcro, he just likes making you wait.

     

    Hey! To take my boots off properly, this Trooper finds a ornery Canadian. Then this Trooper pulls one leg back and swiftly shoves one boot at a time up this ornery Canadians azz. With the vicious and swiftness of this well placed kick, said boots get lodged in the Canadian azz. No need for untying.

    $4000.00 scam!!! :sumo:

  8. OK, generally speaking, never had this problem on the boards before, but I have a customer who made a 1550.00 offer on 2 books, I agreed to the price, he told me that international money transfer through paypal takes a little while, then finally today tells me he doesn't have enough funds to purchase the 2 books and that he will pass.

     

    What do I need to do to submit a name for probation on the forum and should I put this guy on the probation list? I hate to do it personally, as I guess he

    probably legitimately doesn't have enough money, but he didn't even offer to just pick up one of the books, he just said he will pass on both.

     

     

    When I don't have enough money to buy something, I don't throw up the :takeit:

     

    out the "buyer"

  9. And that's probably why someone got him to sign it. Sure, Roy Thomas is a common name, but the coincidence is a bit overwhelming.

     

    Roy was an avid GA collector as well, so it simply may have been a book from his collection.

    An interesting (maybe) Roy Thomas story.

    In the mid-eighties he was trying to put together bound volumes of DC comics which contained on book from each title from each year. For one of the books he needed a Comic Cavalcade. He was at the San Diego Con and ran across a Comic Cavalcade which fit his criteria. The problem...it was the Church copy. He was hesitant to buy it due to the cost. The dealer (Joe Dungan) was hesitant to sell it due to Roy's intentions. But a deal was done and a Church Comic Cavalcade is now bound in Roy's collection.

     

    Ouch, someone bound a church copy? And people get their panties in a knot when I get pedigreed books signed.

  10. Been busy and I haven't had a chance to post much lately, but I just got two books in from CGC.

    I like them, I really like them...

     

     

    Nice books, just wondering when you're going to sell. And shouldn't your recent posts be posted in the Announcement thread? Otherwise people might think you're just pimping your books here..... I'm just sayin'

  11. Damn, BZ Does have everything :P

     

    Seems like it but at least you have a book that looks better than his. I have NONE! :sorry:

     

    BZ's copy -

    redryder5GA.jpg

     

    Woot, I can now honestly say I have one book that's better than BZ! My collecting days are over, going to end on a high note.

     

    That's the copy BZ keeps in the magazine rack next to the toilet for reading material. He hasn't gotten around to scanning the keeper yet.

     

    Buzz kill :makepoint:
