Sqeggs Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 17 hours ago, Dr. Love said: Colletta junk in the trunk. Headlights are one thing, but bodacious romance booty is real hard to come by. One or two Bakers, and this book. Still, $400 for this condition is kind of startling, in spite of the genre gaining big legs this year. I wasn't aware of this book before this auction. Looks like zero copies on the census -- not too unusual for Colletta Atlas romance, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eccomic Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 (edited) He just listed ANOTHER copy of this book and it sold for a BIN of $70.00 Seems a little suspicious as same seller and what appears to be the SAME book!

Check out this similar item we found for you." above the image of the current auction book. That will take you back to the thumbnail image and description page, but this time when you click on "original listing" you will actually get the original listing page. It's two extra steps, but it will get you there. Thanks! That works. It probably only works that way now because it's a bug that they'll find and fix. pmpknface 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmpknface Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I was just watching a few auctions end on ebay and I just watched this happen. The seller didn't mention the artist on the WR #12 and neither are in that good of shape, but still this was a bit surprising... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird. It's a reputable seller, so some sort of strange deal was going down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess the seller discovered a previously overlooked flaw in the book after the auction, but was able to reach a compromise with the buyer.

Makes sense, I could see that being the discount for a missing page or coupon clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed it by minutes because my watch was off. Also missed the TAR 28 (non-baker painted cover) for $27 the day prior. Having bad luck lately...

MrBedrock Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Two strangers on a train, an attractive young woman and a military man. She is glancing his way, catches his attention, and makes a very suggestive hand signal. His eyebrows raise in recognition. All of this is happening as a church passes between them in the distance. Can someone explain the symbolism to me? Point Five 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan. Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I'm assuming the church represents marriage, in accordance with the phrase on the cover, which is what the military man sees in the background. The woman's hand gesture represents getting. It. On!! Point Five 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
