Okay, I've got 69 of the 70 Tales of the TMNT volume 2 issues. All I need now is #9 but after months of repeatedly checking multiple comic sites and ebay I've come up empty. If anybody has one for sale or knows where I can find it, please let me know!!!

I will pay via PayPal and be eternally grateful!

Thanks in advance for any help!

Will do!

I meant within the original run. I've found #71 at least twice, but I saw one go for $50 and the next for $100, so I'm hoping I can find one closer to the former price range.

In case you didn't know here's another on eBay.

Thanks, but I did know, I just didn't want to mention it since the last one on there went for over $100.... It's cool though, seems like the seller just keeps putting just 1 on there for auction. Then after that one sells, he puts 1 more. I'm letting the crazy bidders with cash to burn go first, then I'll pick mine up more reasonably. I've got a number in my head that I'm willing to spend. The first copy the seller listed was doable, but that $100+, I'm not sure it's worth that... to me anyway, right now. Maybe desperation will get the better of me if I totally miss out.

Wow, that seller is actually the guy who printed it! If he's got a ton of them laying around and he's selling them for such high prices, that's a foul move. One that could get him sued. His username here is demon-alukard so just send him a PM, maybe he'll honor the original "shipping" only price.

Thanks for the tip. I contacted him through here and he said he's got several but is only selling them through ebay. One at a time... :tgrumble:

That's a scumbag move, wow. Considering he made those in Russia @ a place that clearly has no issue with copyright infringement, he could easily print as many as he wants and flip them at $50 a pop every time.

To make matters worse- if you look though the bidding activity of the 2 completed listings & the current listing, the user r***l (1033) shows up as winning the first auction, just a buck over me, then that same bidder comes in at 2nd place on the second one at $99.xx and is also bidding on the current listing. I find that to be mighty suspicious and I'm done playing that game. Shill bidding or no it's obvious to me that this is a bit out of control...
