  1. I am glad that I shipped without payment as they were not happy with the books :blush: and are returning them. One was CGC'd, but I guess was not what they were looking for.

     

    lollol - Man, this place is too freaking much.

     

    Why not send me a pile of books for free too?

     

     

    :headbang:

  2. The books were signed for on Thursday-- The PM I sent last night was read. I sent another tonight. I am only mildly worried. It was my first sale on this board (in fact the first books I have sold since 1984), and was not sure what to expect.

     

    I agree that it was unwise to ship before payment, but I also could tell that there was a little concern about new members.I thought selling to someone that had been on the board for a long time would let people know that I was for real.

     

    Thanks again -- I really like it here

    Who's the boardmember?

     

    (tsk) Don't kiss and tell.

     

    :lol:

     

     

     

     

     

    Seriously though, use this as a lesson to yourself, and I hope others will too. I would send something out before payment if it was someone I'd dealt with well more than once before maybe. But, it would have to be someone I'd had a long dialog with, and I probably wouldn't send anything big. I wouldn't expect that in return either.

     

    On the few times someone has sent my books ahead of time, I've tried to put them to the front burner and pay quickly. I can't speak for anyone else, but that is just me. :)

  3. Got this from October (as a 8.5) and pirate got it SS'ed for me by Nick Cardy. Thanks Anthony and Andy you Rule!!! (worship)

    That might be one of the most beautiful SS books I've ever seen. :)

     

     

    (PS - October, if you have any 8.5's of this era in Flash or DC War that you will sell on the cheap that look this nice, let me know. :baiting::D )

    Who is that book signed by. I have hundreds of Sigs and I don't recongize that one. As far as sam keith goes I don't think there are any SS books signed by him.

     

    It's William Messner-Loebs signature.

    :thumb:Yeah, sorry, I should have said. :) I do like the B&W variant alot as I never even saw one in person back then.
  5. And, I really didn't think I'd ever buy a 90's Image book anytime soon, but these were a great deal, and the signer had alot to do with one of my all-time favorite characters. :D

     

    And, well, when I was in college, this was one of those books you could never find and I always wanted because I loved Sam Keith's work. So, it's a bit of a reach for my lost youth. :lol:

     

    BTW - Anyone got any reasonably priced Sam Keith SS to let go of? ;)

  6. The guy is notoriously slow and has been on and off the probation list more than once. He certainly has a pattern and practice exactly as you have described your transaction.

     

    What I don't understand is why people keep coming back to buy his Krap . . . It's not like he has the GOODS or anything - he's a misguided modern monger with bad customer service and belongs on eBay - not here. :sumo:

    If you would keep people on the list longer than immediately after they rectify a problem, perhaps it would be easier for people to tell that someone's been on probation before.

    Just have Arch place a small notation by their avitar. Probation strike 1 ect.

     

    I think that's the most fair suggestion I've seen so far. :thumbsup:

  7. I'd say expepecting paypal fees without it being mentioned up front isn't kewl. And, I can dig being leary of a new member having a PO not registered to them, and changing things like this.

     

    Dropping F-bombs though, not cool. But, I'd be pretty upset by this scenario too.

     

    :thumbsup:
