When I joined to boards I authored a post in Gen. dis. and listed what books I had and asked "the boards" what they thought I should try and get next.

Very soon after that Dac55 Pm'ed me to see if I still needed the books, which of course I did.

So Dac55 sent me about 150 VALIANTS for the low low price of...

FREE :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

All he wanted was shipping, he stated that he just wanted to help me out. (actually he asked for, I think, about $16, the shipping was $22.20!) In return he sent me his list of "wants" and asked if I would keep an eye out for him. I told him that I had not even heard of any of the books let alone had any of them.

He sent me the books, and I have been reading them since. So today I went to my local comic shop (my first time in a comic shop in about 12 years) took in his list and picked up some books for him.

So I would consider this an EPIC deal for me, why:

#1 I got 150 VALILANTS that I have never read

#2 I went into a comic shop for the 1st time in years, that is a story in it self

#3 I was reminded that people can be, and often are, nice for no reason.

I believe that this qualifies for my "best deal of late", but I do not want to brag, just give my man DAC props.

Thanks D,

Chrisitan
