Well, I guess this is one rare case where both could apply.....

Exactly what led my mind down that path, I do believe...

Well it was quite the evening. As I have PMed a few... I have never held in my hands a copy of Spider-Man #1, Fantastic Four #1 or Avengers #1... until last night. As a matter of fact, this guy has EVERY old Marvel comic with the exception of three Tales of Suspense issues. THIS was the stuff I was talking about. This collection was simply amazing and to think of those SM, FF and Avengers issues, just sitting there, getting to hold them. It was incredible.

I sorted through about 18 boxes of kind of sorted stuff which held the books that I like to collect, mostly Dead Universes. The Valiant stuff was sorted by alphabet which I took to be a bad sign.... turns out I was able to pull:

Acclaim Reader
Eternal Warriors #1 painted cover
Eternal Warriors Digital

Shadowman vol 3
1
2 (Good, Bad, Very ugly variant)
3
4
5
6

Mutant Chronicles #1 (golgotha) (anybody got a price on that one ?)
Malibu Signature Series #1
Metaphysique ashcan

ALL for a $1.00 a piece !!!!

There was a Magnus #1 and a Solar #1 but I was not sure that I would get a $1.00 a book deal on those (or I would have picked them up) so I passed and if I visit him again, I will then pick them up. But no golds or CEARs, or VVSSs. Kinda bummed on that but very pleased with the Shadowman vol 3 and Acclaim Reader books. I will probably Ebay these off or something.

Nice job.

Only book I really 'needed' was the Eternal Warriors Digital Alchemy issue and to replace the ashcan because I didnt want to raise suspicion.

I was shocked when the guy said, 'oh hell... buck a book.' I even acted contemplative and thought about offering $.75 a book but figured this was well worth the guy's time.

Come on, Chris, you should have given the guy $30 for the GBU. And you should have given it to him after he offered them at $1. Karma, you know?

It's one thing to do that to a dealer at a show or store - they should know better - but not to someone who let you pick through his personal stuff.

I know, he's got multi-thousand dollar keys...what does it matter to him - probably nothing, even more reason not to take advantage. That's the kind of person you want to foster trust with.

All IMO, I know this is the norm I'm just not comfortable with it. Not trying to give a ethics lesson but "SCCCCCCCCOOOOOOOOOOOOORE" does not exactly say much for us, does it?
