Bobbyusc Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 So, I'm glad you bought a book for your own collection!! Congrats! Id love to hear more details on it.... why that particular book, do you plan on focusing on that genre, etc. Seems like an expensive buy, I'm curious on your motivations? Good luck with your future plan! Again, congrats on buying something that you hopefully will enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with your future plan! Again, congrats on buying something that you hopefully will enjoy It's a four color ducks comic, It was cheap and a more sought after key and yes despite that I bought it for myself. I like carl barks and his comics and have since I've seen them and his art and his level of detail in his oil paintings <3 . It was a 24 dollar purchase shipped. My main collecting interests would be four colors, Archie and Batman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehumantorch Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Comic purchased four color 203 What are 5 words I hope never come out of my mouth for $200, Alex? Jim Ditto. As far as the OP buying it...is there something I'm missing? It's one of the more sought after four color ducks comics and it's also a early appearance of Huey Dewey and Louie 178 was a bit expensive. Here I go getting suckered in again, but saying the above bolded part is like saying it is one of the less terrible diseases to catch. Barks Ducks are not in demand, the prices have cooled tremendously, and if you paid anywhere near guide you're in big trouble in turning a profit. That's a generalization with many exceptions. I do pretty well with high grade Dells - Ducks and otherwise - and early Four Colors to the right buyer. But yes, 203 is a pretty good book but tough to sell anywhere near guide.

MetalPSI Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I tend to not forget this is on a public board, and find hilarity in those that advocate This may be a public forum but this is my journal. A meme here or there is fine but not spamming pages of it. True, which is where asking people to stay on topic if such things bothers you, is probably the best way to go. Then again, you've got someone who is willing to point these things out to you It's not that I haven't noticed it's just that I was being polite and you guys knew when to stop but I'll mention it next time. Actually, in this case Gabe, being polite would be telling everyone here that you thank them for their advice, but you are going to do what you want to do, and you really don't need any help. I think part of your social inadequacies lies with not being able to communicate in a assertive manner. Just my assumption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
