The picture on the website is far less frightening.  He looks...human...as opposed to a thing that plans to snatch up victims with his prehensile tongue.

Acaeum user Mars recently shipped me a large group of Dungeon mags in an off-eBay deal ... they were accurately described, scans were provided, and a fair price was agreed upon. He's got my vote.

Recently bought a copy of Keep on the Borderlands from  bbarsh. It was in excellent condition (or as you collecting freaks would say, 'Near Mint').  :lol: My wife could not believe it was 20+ years old. Great price ('Near Mint' price!).

(Hopefully, someday, someone will refer to ME as a 'collecting freak' <sigh>)

I got a copy of Demon Magic from Xaxaxe the other day.  It was packed very well and got here fast, and it was in even better condition than described in the auction...I could not believe how nice it was.

I'm glad you liked it, Mark.

Good price, too — it's like I sprayed that listing with a "Do Not Bid on Me" potion or something. :)

Many thanks to Gus Landt for a smooth transaction a few weeks back.  Very prompt payment, and pleasant all around.

Another great deal made today with Badmike.  If some of you people arent buying from him...well darn it you should.  :D  

I picked up:
2nd Edition Call of Cthulhu box set; couldnt afford the 1st edition.  :(
Spawn of Azathoth
Fungi from Yuggoth
Shadows of Yog-Sothoth
NM copy of Isengard and Northern Gondor to replace my copy that looks like a grizzly bear used it to wipe its butt with.

I really wasnt sure if I wanted to start collecting CoC but after reading a few sourcebooks it is just too damn cool not to.  Thanks again Mike!

About 7 years ago I sold off my Cthulhu collection. It was gorgeous, virtually a complete set, all the really weird obscure stuff and it was off the shelf mint condition.  When I think about it it hurts.  I really needed the cash at the time and I did get great money for the stuff but a collection like that would be very difficult to assemlbe nowdays.

I still think about my MINT boxsets and shake my head! :cry:  :cry:

Great catch King!

It's the same philosophy the crack dealers use....

Let them have the first few free or cheaply....then when they are hooked...raise the price dramatically...

Soon King you will be begging me for my Delta Green rares, Pagan Publishing OOP items and Games Workshop one shots....

All part of the plan, my man!!!
