Very sad that these are all about the Benjamin's to some people. Knock someone out the running for a project book then put it up on ebay later on.

Thanks...I put in some bids...

I dont have the unity one and I wouldnt mind picking up extras of the bloodshot books...

I will doubt that I get them though...

of course we can say it everytime, but if no one would bid more than the face value of these projects then folks wouldnt be selling them, or atleast they wouldnt be profiting...

I'd love to get the Unity set since I missed out on it, however I have personally decided not to bid on any of this guy's stuff. Just my personal little boycott. That isn't to say if he offered a Unity Red for $5.00 that I wouldn't take that! :lol:

At least he didn't get one of my Bloodshot #7 VcVSS (unless he bought one off someone else).

Wow. Of course, the guy is free to do whatever he wants with them, but obviously he has no class at all. Not to mention, he has no clue how to grade and has the mentality of your typical idiot ebay seller ("screw the customer, me right you wrong"). I won't buy from dude again.

I certainly will not be bidding for more than face value on any of these books. If he only gets face value for the books then is there really a problem with him selling them?

However these books will not go for face value, they will go for more. However I dont think that you get to complain about someone's selling tatics if you are helping to create the market...

anyway, congrats on your boycott..

I'd be tickled pink if he only got the issue cost back for these books, but like you said, that won't happen. I don't think anyone would have a problem if he sold them on the board here for cost or put them on eBay with a BIN of cost. I'm trying to do my part not to create a market for these things by NOT bidding on them unless it's for charity.

Just a personal thing, I'm not advocating that anyone else boycott the guy, everyone has to make their own decision. :thumb:

Well if you guys wanna be really vindictive we could all collectively leave negative feedback. We'd all take one each and he'd have about 20 recent negative scores.

Well, I guess this proves it. Can anyone please read to me the second qualification when signing up for the Bloodshot 1?




http://www.valiantfans.com/forum/viewto ... 13&start=0

I not everyone is against selling these for profit but the biggest arguement is "There was no stipulation about selling these when purchased"

THIS IS JUST PLAN BAD CHARACTER! :|

I knew that going in...it was a "on my honor" thing. It is your word which apparently doesn't mean much to some people.

Well, we all know now how much CM's word is worth......

And in selling the Ninjak book, he doesn't mention that there are TWO comics, one with Alyssa's handprint on it. I wonder if he thought that might not get as many bids if he showed it? Less money for him, boo-hoo..... the sales from this OUGHT to go to the CFF, but I know they won't.

AND - Trent, it was clearly stated, as you showed, that he is breaking your personal rule with the BS #1. I think he's a jackass.

:mad:

Some people spend their whole lives believing in fairy tales, usually because they don't want to give up the fabulous prizes.

Maybe we need a Hall of shame thread for people who sell these off so they won't knock someone else out of the running for upcoming projects.

I noticed this too. The omission of the Alyssa book is very interesting. I try to stay out of this stuff because I believe they are OK to be sold, (minus the ones with a no-resale stipulation) but I cannot keep quiet on this one.

Chris M., if you are reading, please announce that you will keep the Ninjak set together and you will donate half of the proceeds from the Ninjak sale to CF. It's the least you can do.

And, while you are at it, you should really pull the BS1. I'm sure you can arrange a private sale at a decent price if you are dead set on selling. Again, the least you can do.
