Burntboys 1st board only selling thread - Strange Tales

[burntboy]

i have about 26 nice ST's left for sale after the NYCCon (and another 250 or so in all other SA Marvel titles) and i'm going to list the Torch/Thing issues tonight and Nick Fury/Doc Strange tomorrow.

 

all books are raw and not restored. some (will be indicated) are part of the Sid's Luncheonette collection and will come with COAs.

 

the listings will contain both Front and Back cover scans, a list of any unseen defects, the grade, OSPG price and the selling price.

 

all dealings via PM only. the first to declare their willingness to purchase a book at the selling price gets the book based on date/time of receipt of PM. If books are in negotiation and another firm offer for the full price is received, the book is sold to the new buyer. If selling price cannot be realized, i'll post the sold sign when an agreeable negotiation is consummated.

 

i'll update the list as often and as soon as possible.

 

 

any form of payment is acceptable, but books won't ship until checks clear, otherwise within 2 days. Shipping will be as close to actual shipping costs as i can guesstimate. all books shipped vis USPS Box and well protected. Insurance mandatory over $100.

 

If buyer wants to wait a bit to see what else they may buy and combine shipping, that's perfectly acceptable. Time payments are ok, as well, if the purchase is substantial.

 

I think i covered everything so let's take a alook at the books; (all pgs are at least OW).

[Old Fashion PB and J]

Wow. Nice books !

[burntboy]

Geez - how did this go so wrong so fast???

 

i really did my best to explain that all deals would be via PM. i said it at least twice and everybody just ignored that and went with the graemlins in this thread.....

 

I apologize for any confusion and will sort this out tomorrow but suffice it to say that #'s 125, 126 (9.0) 127, 131 and 134 went to the first persons to reply with firm prices via PM. the others are available with a couple having offers that i will chew over for a day or two.

 

tomorrow during the day i will be posting 21 more similarly nice issues from #135 to 168 and will explain the process again.

 

hey, you know it was my first time....................

[blue808]

I was the first person to post for your Strange Tales 126 (9.0) and must admit I didn't bother reading your sales guidelines first.

 

Think committing to a book in the sales thread by posting is always best ... just my , but it's your sales thread and your guidelines

[Flaming_Telepath]

Harry, I think the problem is a combination of a bunch of gorgeous books that are bound to get folk excited and that deals via PM are very, very much counter-intuitive for the Marketplace.

 

I'm sure you have your reasons for only taking sales through PM, but it certainly makes life tougher. Just my

[lizards2]

I think no one should be able to post the until they get 20 references in a thread in general.

Nick - i hear ya and being a newbie to forum selling, it just seemed simpler to me. i may have to rethink my approach now that i've had to disappoint Blue, MC, David and others.

 

Sorry again guys..................Harry.

No problem Harry ... I won't hold it against you . I just got alittle trigger happy and skipped over your guidlines after seeing all those sweet books.
