Still ONE To Go

[Ian_Levine]

I found my last comic, New Adventure 26, but the dealer was so utterly motivated by greed, and the price so extortionately unfair, that I told him where to shove it.

 

 

So I still need one to complete.

I will pay four times guide for it, but I REFUSE to be ripped off blind by sheer unmitigated greed and avarice.

[FlyingDonut]

Wow, how much was it?

[Silver Surfer]

What is four times guide?

[deathlok]

FOADFDQ!

Ya wants we should go get 'em?

 

Sorry to hear about that, Ian. Eventually, you'll find someone that will sell you the book at a fair price.

 

Oh yeah, call out the dealer....

This can't be the first time you have been forced to pay a ridiculous multiple for a book you needed ? Whilst I wouldn't condone you doing this normally, this is the one and only circumstance where I might consider it. It's the final, final D.C.

No.

 

Absolutely not.

 

On sheer principle, NO.

 

There was a New Adventure 29 on eBay last week, slabbed, for a buy it now price of $399.

 

So, out of sheer principle, NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ian_Levine]

Oh yeah, call out the dealer....

 

Not yet, in case he comes to his senses and realises how greedy he's been.

[Ian_Levine]

FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS !!!!!!!!!!

 

That's insane.

 

 

Probably the WORST case of greed and insanity I've ever had the misfortune to witness after buying thirty one thousand DC comics over the last thirty years.

Ah, the ethical -- and kind -- world of comics...

 

... the same type of gouger who would charge $50 for a gallon of milk after a hurricane.

Not really, that's what I would charge you if I had the book.
