  1. I bought and paid for a book in January which still hasn't arrived yet. I've mailed the seller and he says to wait it out - it will turn up. I've bought from him once before and I can't see him screwing me.

     

    But 3 months delivery time? I've written it off to lost in the post, any advice people? (shrug)

     

    I once shipped a book to a boardie in Australia by surface mail. It was over two months before it arrived. I think I was in more of a panic about it than he was, though... It can certainly take a LONG time for overseas surface mail packages.

     

    I've also been on the receiving end of a lost-in-the-mail book. The seller refunded my payment after 2 months and the book eventually came back to him a few months after that.

  2. Woah, that list isgetting big.

     

    What part, or where so I can read about how the gibert guy become 2nd Hall of Shame?

     

    I don't need a link to the third one.

     

    It starts around here: gilberto gets added

     

    Additional complaints start to trickle in over the next dozen pages. I think in the end there were at least six members who never received books they'd paid for.

     

    It's a bit of a shame as gilberto had been a long-time member.

  3. Does anyone know for certain who did the cover art for Spectacular Spider-man #6?

     

    According to the CGC notes on this copy, it's Al Milgrom:

    CLink Copy

     

    According to the CGC notes on this copy, it's JR Sr.:

    Pedigree Copy

     

    According to the notes at SpiderFan.org, it's Ross Andru.

    SpiderFan.org Review

     

    Along with #4, this is one of only two issues from 1-100 that I've never owned a copy of, so I can't check for a discretely placed signature on the cover. If I was to guess, I'd say it looks more like Milgrom's work. But then again, Andru worked on the interior art, so he might have done the cover too... :frustrated:

     

    Any thoughts?

     

    Found another CGC graded copy that lists Milgrom as the cover artist.

     

    eBay copy

     

    Strangely enough, when I did a certification lookup on the JR Sr. copy, the serial number returned Milgrom as cover artist as well. There must have been a typo on the label of that book. I think that makes it pretty definitive...
