Robot Man Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) Month two of confined to quarters... Surprisingly, month two has passed quicker than month one. Got a few more I'm afraid. No idea as to when I will be able to hit the estate sales, flea markets and antique shows though or what they will be like when I can. Thusly, not able to find a lot of new stuff to offer. Made one good buy a few weeks ago but am digging a little deeper in the boxes and even looking at my collection with a little more thought. I need to stay busy and this is a good way to do it. Back to a more scattered approach to this one. I will have some PA,GA,SA, Pulps and some well you know cool "junk". Since I can't get to shows, I might as well try some of the stuff I've been putting away here. One thing this has taught me and speaking to a lot of buddies in the business, is that although we miss the "stuff", we mostly miss each other. Jiving and comparing stories, finds and helping each other out at shows. The stuff is cool, but the experiences we share as collectors and dealers are far more important. OK, on with the show. Rules:No problem children or HOS members.Postage is $6.00 each for up to two comics, very well packaged. I will combine postage on multiple purchases. Things other than comics and larger orders will be calculated for the most economical way. 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.I will accept PayPal, checks and money orders. 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!) But NO Covid-19. Here we go...

Robot Man Posted April 30, 2020 Author Share Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) 1976 DC Super Friends Metal Lunch Box Features all the DC characters of the era. Colorful and bright. Has some minor color scuffing and spotting here and there. Corners are nice with no denting. Christa Lee Shaw lightly scratched her name with Room K on top edge of one side. Inside is a bit dirty and has some stickers attached. Could probably be cleaned up pretty easily if desired. A great piece that would be gone quick if I could be at my flea market space... Was $50. Still $50 a deal! Edited May 5, 2020 by Robot Man Norrin's lawyer and Beige 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
