crassus Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 (edited) A little Carousel of Comics Hi everyone! Its time for my favourite ritual, the selling of the undercopies (and thereby leading to my least favourite ritual, the paying of the bills). There will be some retreads at discounted prices, but some new offerings as well that I think are very nice for the grade and I am confident will be nice additions for the run collector. I will consider reasonable offers on all items BUT an unconditional "I'll take it" in the thread or by PM trumps. Competing claims will be decided as far as possible by time stamp. Unfortunately, the new board software does not display precise thread post times (either in PMs or in sales threads), which can result in the inability to determine whether a PM post or thread post came first. In those circumstances (i.e., where there are "take its" in both a PM and in the sales thread, and where it cannot be determined from the time stamps which "take it" came first), the "take it" posted publicly in the sales thread will win. Therefore, there is some risk of losing a book if you try to remain anonymous via PM. You can count on me in any event to do my best to ensure fairness to everyone. (My especial thanks to EC Ed for his kind assistance in formulating and clarifying this rule) I will not sell to the probate or the banned. Payment is preferred with PayPal but if you need another method, I'm open to discuss, just PM me first to make arrangements before taking a book. I will ship comics (raw or slabbed) to the US and Canada for a flat rate of $10.00 for any number of books shipped in a secure box. I will ship international but please PM me for a quote. I will work with you to keep your shipping costs down. This is my 107th sales thread on the Boards. Kudos Thread If anyone has any further concerns please PM me and I am very happy to provide Board “References upon Request”. If for any reason a buyer is unhappy with their purchase I will give a full refund upon notification within 30 days of receiving the item(s) and upon the safe return of the item(s). Many thanks for looking, and I hope you find something in my carousel of comics. Cheers, Robert Edited March 26, 2023 by crassus Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
