...will the person that bought the Solar HC from me when I first joined up here contact me? Post here, PM, it doesn't matter.

Wasn't me - mine was still sealed in the shrink-wrap!

Hello? I'm pretty sure it was a prominent board member who is still here...

He must not want to talk about it.

First rule of VALIANT Sales Club: You do not talk about your previous sales!

I'm amazed that anyone could even maybe remember that...

I got my HC from a board member, but it was on ebay...

actually... I think it was KC... but maybe not.

I mean I'm just pulling things out of my *SQUEE*...

I'm pretty sure it was opened tho... if not, I opened it.

I'll be your erstwhile buyer if you want, Slym

I'll be honest - I have sold so many books on ebay and through private sales I can't keep most of them straight anymore...

I think I got one of my copies from the board. No clue who though. I can't remember stuff like that. I can remember who I got each fan project from though.

It may have been you, FoHun... remember what you paid for it? Someone was kind enough to take mine from me for $75.....

Is there a reason you need to contact this person? hehe

Anyway, all my sales are documented. I've had almost 2300 sales in my 8 years of selling. Actually I think I had more than that, but started keeping track afterwards, so I have almost 2300 documented sales. This included everything that was available of the person: name, address, phone, email, ebay id (if appropriate) or other id from another site, what they bought, item number, date they bought it, how much they paid, when they paid, how they paid, when it was shipped, tracking number, and if and when I left them feedback.

Whew! That is a detailed list. But at least I have everything documented. Actually I just took out all my sheets. I have from #175 to present, which the #175 is dated from April 2001. I think I gave the first 174 invoices to my then partner at the time. But I still have a good 2000 people. My most memorable sales were to Don Rosa, who is famous for his Disney, and Image man, Marc Silvestri.

Since I just closed my Ebay store, and am trying to build up both my website and my other auction sites, I'm going to and have been contacting my past customers. Christmas is coming up and now is the time to start buying gifts.

Wow.... what do you think was the "biggest" or most "coolist" item you have sold?

Just curious....

Philflound · Post by **Philflound** » Sat Sep 16, 2006 1:56 pm

The biggest thing I ever sold was a shampooer. It almost didn't make the requirement for postage because it was so big. Think I squeezed in by an inch.

The most expensive item I ever sold was a Fantastic Four #1 in like Good or Good+ condition for $1350 or so.

The best Valiant book I sold was the Red Chaos Effect signed, CGC 9.6. I can't remember what it went for. I know it was over $300, but for some reason I don't think it was over $400. I'd have to check all my records for that one.

So, if I send you free losing lottery tickets, I will go into your database?
