  1. Past hour
  2. That’s a cool find, at $1 a book, if given a chance, I would buy these 24/7 365
  3. Bill is awesome to deal with. PM me anytime sir ! xxx ooo Rupp
  4. Giant wholesale lot of 113 pulp digests! Mid grade with a few lower. Some have some water damage but majority are clean. In fresh bags. Retail on these range from $10-20 ea. Entire lot is offered at $600 + actual shipping. Payment by any method. See images and message for any specifics. Pics are here:
  5. I need to downsize, and it used to be so easy to buy more pulps! I'm turning to you for help. I need my fix, but I need to downsize too... The rules are: I'm not selling anything NOW, trade offers only. I will trade these pulps for Girasol replicas, and other pulps! With the exception of the Girasols, I'm generally looking to trade quantity for quality, and of course I will be considerably more likely, in that case, to be more generous. I will be posting hundreds of pulps for trade, so for now, my stated trading value for each pulp is $10,and it will take time to post all the pics and list the pulps If we start a trade I will provide condition reports and more pics as needed. Reason is, I still work for a living, my time is limited, so please be patient with me, eventually everything will be posted, and I will get back to everyone who messages me. I know your time is valuable too, so I wont waste your time. Also, I'm too old to get angry, but not old enough to be cranky, hopefully you will agree if we get into a trade! Anything traded will be promptly deleted from this topic! I need to find a better way to share hd pics here, hundreds more to post...
  6. Don't get me wrong. Mike's emojis (and the apprehension prior to seeing them) terrify me too.
  7. I was finally able to add this copy to my “nice” book collection last year. The US paperback is the true first, but this UK hardcover is the first hardcover issue and it was released pretty close to the paperback release. The boards are slightly bowed out which seems to be one of the common defects as the quality of binding materials isn’t exactly top tier. But other than a small color rub on the bottom of jacket spine panel it’s a pretty sharp copy. The 1956 film is one of my all-time favorite movies, and the 70’s remake is great too, just picked up the Arrow 4K release of that. The book is really good though it doesn’t quite stick the landing on the ending.
  8. I'd rather being coward. Trail you by 4 points. May be the 4 points with you.
  9. Our LCS ("Players" in Moreno Valley, CA) lets everyone get 3 FCBD titles. Usually, I bring my wife with me so we get three more, but she's visiting family this weekend, so no doubling up this time. That's OK, though, that's more left over for the kids, and there were lots of them there! I chose Popeye, Star Wars (Vader/Luke), and Mad Magazine. I probably would've got Doctor Who, Conan, and Unico with 3 more selections. I didn't see the Unico, but even though I got there fairly early, there were a few empty spots, so maybe those ran out? My subscription service is supposed to send me the Archie Comics horror title since I regularly pre-order that line, but we'll see... I also got a set of the 4 UltraMan trading cards, pretty cool for them to make those specifically for FCBD The store usually has some nice half price comic sets for this event, and this year I bought Multiversity (9 Books) by Grant Morrison for $22.50 and Strangers In Paradise (Abstract 1-14) for 10 bucks. I also picked up 5 sharp newsstand copies (at $5 each) of the original Bongo Comics Simpsons "Krusty the Clown" #1 and a Now Comics "Fright Night 3-D" newsstand bagged with glasses, also 5 bucks. No purchase necessary for the 3 free books, but since I bought stuff, I got a raffle ticket which was good for a Star Wars Poe Dameron #6 1:25 variant, so a nice freebee at the end there. This store has been in Moreno Valley for over 20 years (across two different locations), but I actually met Adam, the owner, about 30 years ago when he was working at his dad's shop, the original (long gone) Players on Magnolia Avenue in Riverside, CA. I asked him today when his dad opened that store and he said 1984 (before which, he sold comics at swap meets and the like). Anyway, between those two generations, they've operated a comic shop locally here non-stop for 40 years now. I congratulated him on that fact, and wished him a whole lot more. He must be doing something right!
  10. I will submit grades one hour prior to the deadline. I probably won't see the emoji(s) that always scares me and I'd rather see the graded books. May be the 4th with you.
  11. A good press will definitely benefit this book. As stated, it is already a vibrant copy that just needs the proper TLC.
  12. I liked the way the series ended & hope they bring some of the characters into their live series/films like they did with Ezra, Sabine & Hera at some point.
