aardvark88 Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 I thought this was gonna be a thread about 1 fisted adventures. It was a trashy comic during the b/w heyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArAich Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 So why is it that your feet itch every time you bend over??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquiti Posted October 22, 2002 Author Share Posted October 22, 2002 Its a line from the best song ever by the best band ever - "RV" by Faith no More. My feet are pretty ichy, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 And all that work for nothing! The reserves won't be met on either auction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 or use some kind of simple template How about this? "WANTED: Buyer willing to overpay for lot of assorted modern comics, that includes ___________________________." In this case the blank is a run of X-men back into the Silver age, in mystery grade.

comicinvestor-migration Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 Everytime I see an auction like that, I envision a kid sitting at his PC with a stack of comics beside him, grinning with anticipation as he dutifully enters each one, making sure to consult Wizard NM values for his reserve. Then later that night he packs his swollen hand in some ice, heads off to bed, and dreams of what he will buy with his new-found wealth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Man_Of_Steel Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 I must admit CI, you do have a way with words I couldn't agree more! Do you suppose his grading is accurate? You don't suppose that describing the comics as between VG and M leaves any room for grading inaccuracies? Hmmmmm I've already learned this lesson the hard way. What the hell is wroing with you guys $15,000 (give or take a few dollars) wouldn't be such a bad loss, would it? Come on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
