Peter Loves Gwen

I accept PayPal, and eat the costs, and figure it into pricing. PayPal is the bad guy though, please remember that. It doesn't take 3+% in fees to perform the virtual zero labor of handling millions of dollars in transactions per day. Banks don't make 1/50th of the profit as PayPal does per man hour of labor etc, IMO. I'm sure that you and many have noticed a post I have made suggesting the best way to handle the fees. I doubt many have ever done what I suggested, or even thought of it. Someone should contact PayPal, and not bash fellow members. PayPal is the bad guy, did I say that already? Clearly you've never tried to run a major enterprise business on the internet. I agree the fee might be a little high, but the cost per transaction is definitely not 0. What about all the people working to keep the site running and the business flowing? Are they 0 labor? You tell me, how many people does it take to operate an internet only company? Remember that they have zero costs for labor like shipping, no fraud of the business or the dozens of normal business expenses. Their biggest cost is their customer support department, which is very good, though the policies protect sellers too much. Stop defending PayPal, they make billions in profit per year, with the costs of a small business like a single McDonald's. They can function equally with those people handling $1 million in business, or $1 trillion. It's like a person defending the government for stealing over 50% of every dollar from every income earner. It's bad, it's not honorable. I would love to make that kind of money for virtually no costs, but then again, I wouldn't do it, my fees would be much more reasonable. Please do not judge me as mean etc, for simply posting my opinions. I am a good person, very fair and honorable. I do not take advantage of others because I can get away with it, for any reason. I try to do the right thing, even if I have that kind of advantage or leverage. PayPal has a monopoly, and they are taking full advantage of that. There are federal laws against monopolies, because of the unfair decisions which they typically make.

Sweet, all like new.

I swear there is no pleasing this Nick guy... I packed his cute little Iron Man pictures in a $30 hardback with one or two lint balls and maybe a blade or two of dog hair... and he practically sheeets on himself. I swear I'm thinking his wife has finally driven him to drink bath salts I give away free cat hair with my parcels. The tape dispenser I use always adds cat hair to most of the tape. My parcels are usually just over 2lbs, why is that?

Can I pick out about ten of those, and I'll be fair?

That's a shame, I've spoken with Brent and he's a very nice guy. I forgot to ship a book this past week and just got to it yesterday. I understand being busy etc, but don't let things slip for a few weeks at a time.

you might be a hoarder..... ... if you have a stack of the same OPG issue. Let me sell you another one of those, I probably have an extra too.

Yes, very nice. I hope to get a few of those if I finish my run someday. Take good care of those.

Ditto, I love all of those. I didn't buy them as a kid because they were more expensive, and I didn't figure the size versus cost.

Super. I love that #23, and that was my first older issue I bought and read. I got to read from #23 to about #65 as a group. I waited to buy #2-23 from a different dealer, and #1 I had a hell of a time getting a decent copy. Those are good memories of the 70's to me.

Very nice, and that #12 looks like my old copy. Well done. Gwen died in ASM 121, when did Osborn die, and what did they do, when? The movie MJ looked nothing like MJ, but the movie Gwen was almost prefect as the original. I liked them both.

That book looks familiar.

That sounds good, I hope it goes smoothly now for you. I don't like the personal payments either, but we all hate the fees much more. If it ever is an issue in the future, there is a simple solution. Pay the main payment total with normal PayPal for goods. Then make a second payment in the amount of the fees of the first, by personal payment. Technically the second payment is not for goods, it's an owed amount to the seller. Just explain that to the seller, ask them what the fees are, and pay it. PayPal should have a method of payment which charges the buyer with the fees.

Exactly. (thumbs u I liked the hologram #365, but most of them had corners with tears on them. That issue seems to be unseen here, someone should post that one here. Heck, post all of the variants.

I only have about four of those 200 variants. I quit collecting about when those things began. I didn't mind the ASM 361 reprint, but the 362 didn't need one, and the cover price was too high then.

Look at the registry sets for ASM variants. There is a set there which includes the official variants. Hit the link in my signature for one of my sets, you can find them all listed there.

I love that Mary Jane issue, it looks like a 9.8 to me.

Oh yeah, very nice.

That's a good feeling, congrats.

PLOD = Purple Label of death(restored).

That's great, VF's are very nice.

Ditto, those are nice too.

Nice, and wow, I love that #96. That's a really tough book to find that straight.

He knew about what it was worth, and was there to get one.

Very nice Doug... and what is wrong with Spidey's face/mask?

Those pictures(scans) are beautiful. Nice books too.
