Dr. Balls Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) STREET CRED! I've sold lots of books here throughout the years. Most of my kudos from back then were deleted when they migrated to the new site, but some are still there. I've been selling artwork, records and comic books online for 25 years. I go full pickle when it comes to making sure your book is packed tight and gets to you right - just ask around. RULES! No probies, hosers or otherwise shady people that I may have on ignore. Payment made within 3 days of invoice via Paypal or Zelle unless arrangements are made before you post the take. RETURNS! If there is a problem with a grade, or issue with the book - let me know within 3 days of receiving and let's work it out. No returns on CGC books unless something happens in transit. SHIPPING! Have NO FEAR. I pack solid. I pack tight. I pack with lots of material. I do not scrimp on packing. Shipping will be noted on each item. International shipping will be via Priority Mail at cost. PLEASE CHECK YOUR SHIPPING COST BEFORE POSTING I'LL TAKE IT. DOIN' THE DEED: Rules the day over PM negotiations. Time stamps are the be-all, end-all way of determining a sale. If an I'll Take It is posted in a PM and posted in the thread, that book will go to the post with earliest time stamp. :news:Payment is due within 3 days of the PM invoice date If you require more time, please PM me FIRST before posting your "I'll Take It" - I'm sure we can work something out. However, if payment is not received within the specified time period, and no other arrangements have been made, I reserve the right to cancel the sale and re-list the item. Boom.

Dr. Balls Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) Tim Holt #30 CGC .5 + Zodiac reproduction Halloween card $618 SHIPPED SOLD TO BEIGE Lots of interesting research surrounds this book regarding the serial killer: the Zodiac. The short of it is that he sent a Halloween card to the SF Chronicle using phrases on the card that appear only in this fashion, anywhere, in this particular Tim Holt comic book, leading people to speculate that the Zodiac might have been a comic collector. Not to mention, it's got a cool cover. Presents really well for a .5 and seems that CGC really pounded it for having two thirds of the back cover missing (that's all that's on the grader's notes). Difficult book to find in any grade, selling it for what I paid for it. Edited April 25, 2023 by Dr. Balls Readcomix and Beige 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Balls Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) Elvira Hot Smack hot sauce $25 shipped SOLD TO S-MAN (short for "Sauce Man"?) This was some sort of exclusive thing a few years back, I find no reference of it for sale anywhere, I know I bought it when it came out as I'm an Elvira fan. Bottles are sealed, and there is shrink around the box, except for the bottom, where I opened it to check out the bottles. Cool packaging.

Dr. Balls Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 Faces of Death 1 / 2 (sealed) / 3 on VHS $120 SHIPPED FYI: Faces of Death have been debunked as "snuff films", it has been admitted by the originators of these videos that they are dramatizations and news footage, using special effects, etc. These are the Gorgon 90's releases, #2 is still sealed. I have played #1 and #3 in my VCR, they play fine with no tracking issues. Neat cover art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Balls Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) Stan Lynde Original Ric O'Shay Comic Strip from 1976 $145 SHIPPED Great fire-and-brimstone dialogue by the judge in this strip, handing down the death sentence to a character, double-signed by Stan Lynde. This piece is twice-up and measures about 6"x17" Edited April 24, 2023 by Dr. Balls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched most of these, they work fine and have no tracking problems. The color packaging on these is amazing-looking, a really nice set for your bookcase. Most of them are in clear holders and present nicely. Edited May 6, 2023 by Dr. Balls That_Guy and PhoKing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Balls Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) Spawn Toy lot $65 + actual shipping REMOVED I admittedly don't know a lot about toys, these are all sealed and in varying degrees of condition and have tried to represent them as best I could in the photos. Pricing them cheap, and I will quote you the least-expensive shipping (either UPS or USPS Parcel Post). Edited May 6, 2023 by Dr. Balls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Balls Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 Children of Dune, First Edition, 5th Impression $95 Shipped Some rubbing on the front cover, but otherwise a nice, tight book. Non-BCE Dune books are getting a lot harder to come by - I decided that it's time to let these go and focus elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Balls Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 Dune, First Edition, 6th Impression $395 Shipped Former library copy, but this one isn't hammered like most ex-libs - it has stamps, some glue reside on one flyleaf at the front, and the binding is a little loose on one top corner (pictured). Some minor imprefections and a small tear on FC, but otherwise a VG book. Non-BCE Dune books are getting a lot harder to come by - I decided that it's time to let these go and focus elsewhere.
