Well I played hard ball, and I got an email with a $50 increase from my offer so I excepted it, and the 6 pages will be mine.

I look forward to seeing the Spider-Woman page. Although I stay away from Buzz I had some choice experiences with Buzz.

Your other problem is with the amatuer S-W fan. Anyone seriously wanting to start a collection should know now not to bother as you have the definitive collection. However that little guy who is lucky enough to come across just one cover and is satisfied to leave it at that is going to be hard to budge.

In respect of the dealers you could steadily take down the pages you have to pretend they are being sold; lets face it no on would believe you would shift a cover. But it might get them to believe you are not that interested in pages as you were.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I'm pretty sure I told this story before. Buzz is not to be trusted when it comes to getting things through the mail. I won a Black Canary Splash off of Ebay, and as soon as I won and then paid for the auction he was kicked off of Ebay. His real name is Aldren Aw, so at the time I did not know who he was. So after a month and many emails of him saying that it was sent out it never came. I got his phone number through Ebay and he answered, he said it was the DC mail room's fault they did not send it out. I told him that I worked in Law Enforcement and I received the page overnighted the next day.

I was stupid enough to buy something else from him from Ebay a Storm Pinup. It never came it never came, it never came, I emailed, I emailed, I emailed. He said oh it just came back to me Fed Exed and they did something to it it got slimed or something. But I re sent it............(((((((What you resent a ruined piece of art that I paid $160 for......You got to be F'ing kidding me. I got the piece and it has this gray all over it where someone spilled something on it.

So that is my story.

Jeez, he's always been nice to me. But then again I'm a scary person. I will send you a pick of it when I can, OK.
If you get him when he's sober, he's as nice as pie. But if he's high, drunk, or just plain tired from the previous night, he can be a real prick.

you know, it sucks that once you reveal your love for a character, there are those people that try to jack their prices up.

Rarely do you find people that want to genuenly help you find pieces of your favorite character. Luckily, there seems to be a large percentage of these people here on the forum!
