The guy actually had a decent amount of UOs. (I managed to get 4, 5, 10, and 11 off of him. Brette got some too, from what I saw.) What surprised me about the final price is that that was the only one that didn't get any bids other than my own. Given the attention paid to the others, I would have expected somebody to have at least kicked a bid in. |

I already had that one, and I suppose others had it as well.. annoyed I missed out of 14/15.. its now the only one I have left to get.. I went out to buy the ones I was missing just to get it out of the way, just trying to concentrate on finishing a couple of the magaine runs...

Meant to ask: were you in on the bidding on those Stormbringer monographs he also had?
My snipes were quickly surpassed in the final bidding.  |

But more importantly.... He's alive!
Long time no read, David, you lurkur you.
How about a Scotland Aceaum meet and greet in October? We have a visiting dignitary from over the water, so maybe an evening in a pub is called for?
PS, Sorry for the avatar, D. I know tiggers are your thing. I just couldn't resist this one. |

I already have issue 11, the only ones that I am missing are 1,2,3 and 7.
The frequency that they are appearing on eBay seems to be diminishing so I am probably going to have to pay more than I originally wanted to if I want to complete the collection.
On a happy note I recently bought Pagan Publishing's Golden Dawn for $40.00 at the Abe Books online store. Still waiting to receive it. |

These have come down some in price over the last year but they still fetch a tidy sum. Especially if they are complete, unpunched, and in great condition. A year ago people were paying upwards of $100 for one of these. The seller could definitely do himself a favor and add pictures and description of the contents. |

Wow, how do you keep up with what lance buys?
Looking on ebay he has won 625 items in the last month alone - even if many are miniatures, that's a sure fire way to get a lawsuit from your postman due to the hernia you've caused him
(I'm just jealous really - wish I had all the kit Lance has! (And as it goes, he's bought a good amount of stuff from me over the last year or so and he comes across as a real decent guy - I personally wish everyone I dealt with on ebay was like him)) |
