Point Five Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Hey guys, Starting tomorrow around noon, I'm going to be offering up a nice variety of lower-grade Golden Age and Atomic Age books in the forum marketplace. Come check it out! Everything will be pretty reasonably priced, with prices starting at $9 (really!) and nothing higher than $135. A great chance to pick up an affordable rare ish, or to test the waters on a GA title or genre you don't normally collect. I've always been a fan of the amazing diversity of GA books, and all of the following will have at least token representation: ECs, Fox, MLJ, LB Cole covers, Frazetta, precode horror, romance, western, crime, superhero, anti-communism, & more. (Intrigued, I hope?) Even if you're not in a buying mood these days, I encourage you to swing by and take a look, as I'll be putting up quite a few books not often seen around here. Thanks very much! Jon PS: Apologies for this spam in the GA forum, but I figured some of you don't visit the marketplace regularly. First and last time I will do this.

nearmint Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 I actually like spam. The hickory flavor is especially pleasing to the pallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agro23 Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 I figured some of you don't visit the marketplace regularly. First and last time I will do this. And some of us WON'T without a link either. I'm just lazy like that... I mean, if you're going to spam, do it EFFECTIVELY. "Romanes Eunt Domus" and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Free can of spam with every $200 purchase? Link to come. Thanks all! How about instead, to repay us for the spam, you tell us what's going up for sale now, so we can snipe all non GA-readers, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicdonna Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Free can of spam with every $200 purchase? Link to come. Thanks all! I'd like first chance on the early actions 4.0 and better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Point Five Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Geez, while I appreciate the interest, don't get your hopes up TOO high, gents. Early Actions 4.0 and better? I don't even own a 4.0-or-better early Action! Generally speaking, the earlier GA books I'm offering up are in the Fair to Good range (i.e. reading copies, albeit decent ones), while the postwar books average out more towards the VG range. Anyway, you'll see soon enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apotheosis Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I've been looking for one of these for over two years now and this is only the second one that I've even seen offered. I'm definitely looking to upgrade, but I count myself lucky to have one at all at this point... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comicdey Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Picked this up for around $60 shipped. Not a F/VF and has a couple of decent tears on a few interior pages, but still going to keep it. now I just have to decide if I want to complain as it was overgraded and the interior tears were not noted.....oh heck, it was on ebay, what can I expect? Still around 1/2 guide for a nice GGA cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
