ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

There are simple and easy things we can do to set the ground work for the forthcoming VH-T books. These simple guerilla-marketing tactics could help seed the comic community with enthusiasm and interest, and let others know that there are people chomping at the bit to see these books come out.

Some ...

John Taddeo just called... he is the winner.

He knew there would be a group of guys watching the board (on the edge of our seats),
so he stepped out for a minute to give me a call and to let you guys know
that he has won the bid.

There is still paperwork to be ...

I also wanted to join those that wish you the best of luck John.

Is there any way those of us interested can monitor/view/hear the auction as it progresses? What time is the auction as well, so I don't sit next to the refresh button all day.

Thanks!

I have a friend that has worked at EB since before these books came out and he has hoarded every promo to come through there. He searced his archive and couldn't find this Ironman/X-O book, nor does he remember it.


Kyle

That's interesting to know. Does your friend have a copy of the Turok ...

I agree with some of the others here that said these books should be taken out of the inventory, yet remain part of the image library and price guide.

What it boils down to is dissemination and availability. Every book (except these two) that are currently in the inventory were given out via a ...

bump, with updates.

Thanks to all those that have been helping.

I don't know about the rest of you, but here is what I read into this. Now, keep in mind that Greg's wife is looking over his shoulder while he types this, probably making sure none of their debauchery hits this site:

Now I'm blushing

Thanks for the kind words guys

Hey guys,

Still looking to buy several books. Please let me know if you are willing to sell me any of the following to help me get to 100%:

Armorines #0 Gold <--- Don't need this one anymore!
Armorines #1 VVSS
Destroyer #0 - $2.50 cover
Eternal Warrior #27 VVSS
Geomancer #1 VVSS <--- Don't need ...

I asked my LCS about it last week. They told me that they never heard of it... I guess that is why John wants us to promote it to them, eh?

Unless he's been sending press releases to the various comic news outlets (Diamond, Wizard, The Comic Wire, whatever) and they've actually been published as ...

What is the greater risk for the fans of this site: having a great feel of a highly prized book that few people have or having a bunch of very happy fans visiting this site over and over that have a tangible peice of property associated with this site?

NONE of the people who registered to the ...

Let's look at an alternate plan: right now we auction one off on ebay ($150 or so) and then sell 45 (guessing as some will be comped I'm sure) for $20 or $25 bucks - that's about $1,200 roughly (on the high end). How about if next time we produce 100 of these, auction the first one off before we ...

Aarrggg...

That's what I get for trying to have a day out with my daughter... Troll around some comic shops looking for books, nothing. Have some fun with my daughter in the process, great. Get home to see I just missed out on a big opportunity, crap...

I'm with the rest of those calling for some ...

Bump

Still looking for 15 books. Help anyone?

Kyle

From tight funding to mad cash in 13.5 hours. Can you hook me up with a sack, man? :wink:

You know how it goes,

Refinancing your home - come home from work - find a check for $1,650 in your mailbox as a refund on your home insurance - email your friends that you can buy more comic books.

Yea ...

X-Men #4 signed by Stan Lee.

Alright, have some money again and am now looking for the following (after several people helped me with the list - thanks):

Armorines #0 Gold
Armorines #1 VVSS
Deathmate Preview Green - Comic Defense
Destroyer #0 - $2.50 Cover Price
Eternal Warrior #27 VVSS
Geomancer #1 VVSS
Predator vs. Magnus ...

I bought a pair of the Unity Diamond TPBs yesterday so I'm tight on funds now. At this point I can only do trades for these books (until funds are better). Please check out my inventory to see what I have to trade. The inventory name is "elyhekrue."

Thanks for all the responses! You guys are ...

Hey everyone,

Recently I've been going batty trying to get to 100% on my Valiant collection. I've spent scads of money on Ebay (even though X-Ohobbyjoe keeps sniping me :-), via Sonicdan and Vault-Keeper, and been PM-ing people left and right. I figure I might as well broadcast my want list to see ...

PM sent.

I'll be in NYC starting Saturday for the NY Toy Fair. What good comic stores are in Manhattan that support/cary Valiant stuff? Looking at checking some stuff out while I'm there.

Thanks.

Here is another one that went for way over what is listed here...

Kyle

Thought you guys would enjoy this one. Just found an auction that had "Buy It Now" for $.01

Still not sure it's worth it...

Another fun one. This time it's not one that I have questions about, just a fun, signed book. Got this at Comic-Con when I got the other signed stuff. Still have a bunch of other signed books, let me know if you want to see scans of them.
