CLOSED! JUNK SALE! Planet, Plastic Man & A Bunch of Pre-Code and Post-Code Horror!
2 2

29 posts in this topic

Well, I WAS on my way to the junk show this morning. Got up, it was dark and cold and guess what... Car broke down on the freeway. Thanks God for the Auto Club. So since I didn't get anything, I thought I might as well try to sell some stuff that is always stacking up. Small sale of maybe 25 books this time. Mostly pre and post code horror. Might help pay for auto bills. Anything that doesn't sell here will go to fleebay or Terry's Cal Con in Jan. I know this stuff will sell well at either place.

Rules:

No problem children or HOS members.

Postage is $5.00 each for up to two comics, very well packaged. I will combine postage on more than two. All will come with tracking. 

I prefer to sell only to US addresses but might make an exception if I know you.

PM's and offers... I am trying to sell this stuff and want to get as much listed as I can. I try to price fairly. I probably won't have a lot of time to review PMs if I want to get this stuff listed. An "I'LL TAKE IT" icon takes it first. So, keep that in mind if you want something. When I get done, I will review PMs (in order of when they came in). If you have a question (other than a lower offer) post it and I will try to answer you.

Payment is by PayPal within 3 days FIRM. I will also take checks and money orders if you let me know after I send you an invoice.

Returns: No hassle returns within two weeks from when tracking says it was delivered. Return postage is on you unless I make a gross error and in that case I will "man-up" and pay return postage. I don't expect any returns though as I've only had 3 or 4 in 40 years. 

This stuff all comes from a smoke filled, varmit infested, mouldy junk house. (Just kidding!) Here we go...
