As in, alongside "mixed", "CA/MA", "GA/SA/BA", etc.? If so, I think that could work quite well. I always assumed it would be a subforum of the pulp forum, kind of like the original art forum. But I'm fine in either case. I try not to do a lot of complaining ... an attitude of gratitude and such, but I never cared for the inclusion of dedicated sales sub forums in the regular informational forums, such as OA.. The idea of a Pulps and Books sub forum in the dedicated Forum Only Selling Thread definitely appeals to me ... it may even attract a window-shopper to a new aspect of paper ephemera collecting.

Robot Man Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 As many of you know, not only am I into comics primarily, but all forms of vintage paper in general as well as toys and other stuff. I usually mix a little of everything in my sales threads. It kind of breaks it up and offers a variety. I have never had a complaint but instead, have people tell me it makes the thread more fun. I might not do them at all if it was so compartmented. jimjum12 and Randall Dowling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul © ® ⚽️💙™ Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Personally I'm for both. Dedicated sub forum, yes. Being allowed to put the odd pulp in GSB? Yes to that....also Randall Dowling and Robot Man 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toz Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I very seldom visit the pulp forum, a little more in the others.It’s just my opinion but anything for sale needs to be. In the sales forum. love the pulps but don’t collect them that much. jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator CGC Mike Posted April 4 Author Administrator Share Posted April 4 I have started on this with the assumption there will be a majority in favor of it. I am asking for help with a few things. 1. I need a name and description. I typed these as a placeholder. What should the top 2 lines say? The first is the name, and the second is the description. Is the second line fine the way it is? 2. As far as the guidelines, I need a list of what collectibles are acceptable to post in this forum. I can figure out the rest of the specifics. I am asking for at minimum a partial list of things allowed I will pin a thread at the top with this, along with special guidelines for this forum. There will be a link to the usage guidelines that we currently have (as shown above) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 I'll think about it more and post later if others don't beat me to it, but the obvious changes to me would be "Vintage PB's", to avoid confusion with comic TPB's, and possibly "non-comic magazines" rather than "other magazines".

OtherEric Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I should have thought of this earlier... Are we allowed to make "want to buy" posts as well, or do we need to do those over in the Comics Market- Want to Buy thread? Darwination 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everybody is waiting for somebody else to go first. I mostly buy, while I've sold some items on the forums they've generally been people asking me after I post something.
