KEVIN'S BIG SUMMER SALE - PICS POSTED
Yes - I know that this is early.
But I wanted to put out he announcement in enough time that I can really cobble together all of the information and attach photos for many of the items in the list. Hopefully once a week or so, I plan on putting up descriptions of a few items - and setting up information within.
This is it.
Kids - I am getting toward the next point of my life. Been really trying to think about next possible stages, and etc. (For those of you who remembered WAY back to my podcast - Madeline is going to college this fall...) Anyhoo - I am ready to clean house and put some of these items into someone else's hands who can really appreciate them.
I plan on selling off many/most of my valuable comics. I have a complete nineties Valiant collection, and a complete Acclaim collection, too. I also have a collection of all of the VEI variants from the start up until about the first two years of VEI (No, not including any of the Divinity variants...) Although I will probably keep reader copies of many items, I may also choose to sell the full runs - at a pretty awesome discount. We will see.
I will probably 'reverse auction' the whole thing - and announce in advance when the auctions will begin. Plenty of notice for everyone to get in on the thing. I will probably list a few of the items later today - so keep an eye out...
HERE ARE THE UPLOADS... (I will keep uploading until I get closer to the summer...)
VEI PROMO ITEMS
I have a bunch of little pull list packets. I may sell these as a set. One is opened (notice the Bloodshot pulled out) all others are FULL SEALED PACKS. NO idea what I might sell these for.









And A&A coaster.





FOUR KNIVES TO OPEN BOXES.
One Ninjak, one Bloodshot, one 4001, and one Eternal Warrior


HARBINGER WARS COUNTDOWN CLOCK
As is. I believe it works (when batteries are inserted...)

UNITY TPB FULL SET
One each of the Diamond TPBS, and Unity Saga plus the cardboard case. The 1-9 set has a SMALL turn at the lower right corner.


MAGNUS TPB SET
Steel Nation, Magnus vs Predator, and Invasion. Predator is the gem here. Unfortunately, the top left corner has a tiny crunch. I have enclosed a close-up of the corner.


VALIANT VOYEUR FULL SET
Includes all eleven. The SOLAR was signed.


VALIANT VOICE FULL SET.
This is in varying degree of condition. I sealed them all in magazine bags to keep their condition intact. I also damaged one further at least when I put them into bags. Some have a name written on the cover. Please ask if you want further postings of condition on any.

X-O MANOWAR TPB set.
Two blue. One sealed. Sealed white.
SOLAR TPB AND HARDCOVER SET
One sealed and one unsealed each of the TPB and Hardcover set. Plus one TPB of Second Death




RAI TPB SET
One sealed and one unsealed of each regular and blue cover

HARBINGER TPB SET
One each sealed and unsealed of regular and bluebird versions, plus one signed by Shooter.

PREVIEWS SET
One each of Unity story and the Deathmate/Plasm insert

X-O MANOWAR HARDCOVER SIGNED, Number one of 500.
This one, I may hold back to donate back to VEI. And I really have no idea what I would charge for it anyway.
Including a double-set here. Sealed copy, and signed copy number one. This is the only one of these ever.

Re: KEVIN'S BIG SUMMER SALE
Really - and I don't mean this in any negative way - not a pain at all. Much of Madeline's (and other two) are relatively covered.mkb28 wrote:Those darn kids going off to college! I feel your pain, Brother.Good luck with your sale!
Some real soul searching done over the last two years or so. Re-focusing a lot in my life - and a changing perspective on a lot of stuff. and on my stuff. Looking to make certain it ends up in the hands of someone who really wants and needs it.

Re: KEVIN'S BIG SUMMER SALE
I did not mean it to sound negative. Just causes us to change priorities and usually puts an end to comic book collecting. I will be selling everything someday soon too.kevinbastos wrote:Really - and I don't mean this in any negative way - not a pain at all.

Re: KEVIN'S BIG SUMMER SALE
Not at all taken as negative. Started for me when front lawn got turfed by a neighbor. Tracks led to the car parked there. No apology. Nothing. Just a change in priority. Still reading. And enjoying. Big things happened around me. Really, I don't want to see them dumped at an LCS if something happens to me. This way, both sides can win.mkb28 wrote:I did not mean it to sound negative.

Wow!!
If this is the Preview, I can't wait to see what the "Main Event" has! There are some real gems here already!
(Now to start looking in my old jeans to see where a $20 bill, or $50 bill, or, in the really, really old jeans, $1000 bill might be!)
