I've seen lots of folks over there who seem interested in VEI, but don't want to take the financial plunge without some idea of what they are getting into.
Most of the people over there mostly seem interested in which books have first appearances that they can flip later for a profit, (Not all, but most; I'm there, even Dino's there, Greg is there, talking about the books first)
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

Yep. I also think the books would probably disappear. Too many people coming and going over there. It would be nice to get it going again around here and send it to readers that are new to give them a chance to get caught up.

Perhaps donate to a library project like several others? When I was younger I wished our library carried TPBs.

Greg has the library. If somebody wants to contact him and get it moving again, that would be great :clap:
