Saved by a boardmember sale! Past 6 months of VEI comics...
Chris Gould aka k_c_collectibles decided to start a pull list with my shop to get all the new Valiant titles. Every few months I'd send him a Paypal invoice, he'd pay, all was good.
Got to the invoice point and was told he'd pay at the end of the month, which turned into next month, which turned into not responding to my emails/money requests.
It's bad enough when people come into the shop and start a pull list then disappear without a trace and leave me hanging, but it's way worse when it's someone you know. I'm also sure this isn't the first time this sort of thing has happened with Chris, and while I think he's a decent guy, I don't feel bad "outing" him this way. Business is business. Don't make your problems my problem.
At this point I'm sitting on a couple hundred dollars worth of inventory that I need to move. Basically the past 5-6 months of every VEI title, with all regular covers, pull box covers, and any extra printings. I made a point of pulling him the nicest copies that came in, though a handful arrived with printing creases, which no one can do anything about.
I'll post a list up tomorrow.
Looking to get $3 per issue, unless someone wants to take the majority of it in one shot, in which case I can work with you. Shipping is on the buyer.
Shoot me any of your needs!
Thanks, Zach

I like the title change from "Hosed" to "Saved by a Boardmember!" That is awesome!
Way to go Bruce!

If I win an argument, it doesn't mean I'm right. It means I'm a better arguer.
In addition, I'm right.
