Sorry. I saw the screen name and thought he had changed it but knew he had been around since the mid-2000s. I now see he is still Weird Paper (his screen name). Sorry for the brief interruptus of the sales.

One of these has got to hit Schicklgruber, you'd think...

More Special Delivery for Adolph

Is this Roger? Weird Paper, San Antonio?

That is nutso. I'd be pissed if I pre-ordered a guaranteed 9.8, paid up front and received less. Do you know if there was a partial refund for the lower graded books, Dre? I totally agree with your position, not that I have ever nor am interested in pre-orders but some folks do.

The Paul Gustavson Arrow covers are so dynamic. Lithe and delicate and so engaging. Really great books, Rick. So many that you are just incredibly rare.

From throwing ape to spearing and right-crossing ape

Just curious how quickly sales numbers were readily available to the publisher to know how a book was doing and if a character was more popular. For instance, Action #1 had Supes but his next cover appearance was #7 and he missed a few others even after that. I realize publication frequency had a part to play but would they have seen data after just a month or several months? Or was it based more or also on letters from readers? Just can't imagine that many letters coming in but maybe just a few weighed over those series/characters that didn't receive any.

Just an amazing amount of work involved in this. Kudos to you again, Paul.

Happy Anniversary.

Just don't bring up Bob Kane

Slab both - the coverless copy and in a different slab, the repro cover and then put the cover slab on top of the other - viola, a King Solomon solution Oh having the two slabs pressed together is completely optional.

No need to fire the cannon. His back will be broken is 9 minutes and 32.5 seconds.

I don't see a lot to excite me but that usually the case with their focused auctions as opposed to their featured. Anymore it is year round auctions between all the sites and even more auction houses getting into the game.

Razor to throat to teeth to throat

That is cool with the signature on it. Poor Airboy, dang Salemnites accusing Airboy of warlocking - wonder if he will float or sink....

But if the order of the discussion posted above is chronological, buyatari said, " I'd be willing to sell them if you want them. " Doesn't that constitute an offer? I guess depending on when Warlord accepted and the other buyer accepted all three would make a difference since the seller did make it conditional upon Warlord's desire by saying "...if you want them." I had assumed their discussion was for just the one pack and not all three but if that had not been firmly communicated, then certainly it is slippery but him saying another was interested in all three leads me to believe that only one lot was being taken here.

I think I have commented before on this one, Gino but can't help swoon again - such a cool and attractive copy.

Kind of a shame over such a small amount of money but it sounds like from what you have shared, a deal was made. Did you actually PM him that you had actually nominated him? I don't look in this thread enough to know if the 30 day period can be waived if the other party has absolutely stated they have no intention of honoring the deal - someone can verify I am sure.

Hey Paul - Jump to the page where the zombie's hand around the girl's leg ends up - he ain't smiling for no reason

Damn nice pair you've got there, BP. More of the great Lou Fine and Yarko the Great.
