Why do you watch and never bid? Are you doing a marketing exercise? If you have no intention of bidding PLEASE stop just staring. Most sincerely. Thank you.
Seriously? Someone actually expects people to buy their stuff with this written at the top of the description?

Imagine the conversation in a store:

"Hi there, can I help?"

"No, I am just browsing at the moment."

"In that case I'm going to have to ask you to leave. If you are not buying my stuff, get out."

Yeah, you would really want to do business with that guy.

*SQUEE*!!!

His other comments are just as idiotic:
the opening bids here are rather low considering their increasing rarity of this item.

On Sep-23-08 at 01:54:35 PDT, seller added the following information:

these bids are are a joke! you're not even lukewarm and the clock's ticking....



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Sep-23-08 at 19:17:13 PDT, seller added the following information:

At 25% now with so little time left. Bid the value of the book. If your looking for diamonds for the price of gravel you won't find it here.
What a doosh... :roll:

Dear fischstik,

I *would* make an offer, but these books are quarter books....31 x .25 = $8 (rounded up)...so, even if they were free, with shipping....nah, these are available everywhere for 25 cents or less (mostly less.)

Good luck.
If you contacted us to insult us, you have.
You are another stupid critic who has no concept of what things sell for and too much time. If you are so cutting edge and think these books suck. Why do you look for them?

The last 1/2 issue I saw was the Twelve #1/2. I bought it about 3 weeks ago.

There's a Project: Steal the Golden Age 1/2 coming out soon. I'll get that one too.
