Hey guys, I didn't mean to start a huge altercation here. That wasn't the point of a post. I'd just ask that anyone who is anyone don't do a deal with a guy who apparently their are dozen of horror stories about. It's got to be clear to you what kind of guy this really is at this point. For whatever reason he does this, he does it alot, and he has done it over a long period of time. You might have faith in him, but if you have faith in some of the other guys on here, you got to realize somethings up.

 

If you want to do anytihng to help me. (not that you know me, or owe me anything, as you don't), please tell anyone you do business regularly with to not do business with Bob, and if you can bare talking to the man, at least try to call him and get his side of the story, maybe encourage him to do the right thing? I don't hold up hope any more that I'll ever see that money or those books. But it would be really nice to just be pleasently surprised one day. His current phone number is 402-459-1709 to those of you who don't have it and are willing to try to help me out.

 

Just please stop taking shots at each other. Mmheady - I don't like you. And a decade earlier I would have ripped into you all night long just for fun. As it is now, I'm sorry. I was being immature. And regardless of your percieved behavior on my part, this is below me. I'm sorry. - M

 

You say " you don't like me"….yet you do not even know me. I do agree 100% to " I was being immature". That is the most correct statement you have placed on this board.

 

Let's not assume you could " ripped into me all night long"…..maybe for a min or two….all night no way…that would mean you would have to "hang with the big dogs"

and that is something you have yet to prove or show…..give it some time…25 to 50 years…

 

As far as calling Bob…I am gonna do that for you…not because I "like" you or don't but I want to get to the TRUTH. Hear both sides and make my final judgement.

Right now its you….99

% to 1%…I am gonna call him right now…..

 

every time i think he's made a post that is surely the VERY bottom of the barrel, he proves me wrong. hell, you have to turn the barrel over to get to this one.

You seem like a nice chap vaillant, but please, get off your sanctimonious high horse.

 

I’ve been horseriding only once, and I still have a nice memory of it, but won’t be trying again. :)

 

Horses or not, you have gotten my point. If it helps' the case at hand, someone could try to contact him, but it seems it’s easier to laugh. :baiting:

 

I don't recall laughing. ;)

 

And my point, which you should've gotten by now, is that you were simply reiterating what had already been said in somewhat patronizing terms.

 

Not to mention that you were judging other boardies who have dealt with, or have known, Mr. B for decades.

 

It's jolly nice of you stick your oar in, however redundant your contribution may have been. But in future before you rush to take a stand, either for or against anyone, I'd suggest you remind yourself that there is a vast, exhaustive amount of knowledge on this forum regarding every single player in the GA market.

 

Not to mention a search feature.

 

Way too harsh. Valiant appears to have been trying to effect some sort of solution/reconciliation/whatever here. It doesn't appear there is one short of BB starting to make amends by sending the pulps (if he still has them and the buyer still wants them) or refunding the money. Even then, this episode is a body blow to his reputation -- at least in my eyes -- unless he has some plausible explanation for what happened. If the facts are as they have been presented, a plausible explanation seems hard to conceive.

 

Precisely. But apparently goldust thinks one must know any given factual data in the world, and to an infinite depth, to exercise a simple act of empathy, or make a mere attempt of comprehension.

 

Sqeggs - Yes, that's right. Thanks for agreeing with me.

 

Vaillant - Nope, didn't say that at all. Merely pointing out that knowing a reasonable amount of facts might help before forming an opinion and acting as an intermediary. Keep up the good work, and carry on.
