Just in case anyone else is looking for back issues, my current eBay listings are here:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/betel_uk/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25&_trksid=p3692

And I've got 1,000s and 1,000s more kicking about so if you don't see what you're after, drop me a PM and I'll see if I can help.  :D

Hi guys...
I've been a bit quiet on the forum of late, but some of you will know me as a reliable supplier of back progs and Megs over the past few years.  :D

While I've been collecting I've amassed 1000s and 1000s of back progs - I've got boxes and boxes and boxes of them ferreted away around the house and in my garage.

Anyway, I've been thinking of packing the selling in for a while now - it simply takes up too much time, especially now as I've got myself a new job and will be working away most of the week for the foreseeable. I've started to find that I'm having to apologise more and more to people for the time it's taking me to put their orders together and I hate letting people down...

So... I'm looking to sell THE LOT in one hit.  :o Obviously what I have would probably suit a comic dealer / shop best - it's an opportunity to pick up a huge amount of stock in one hit. I don't currently have a comprehensive list of everything I have (I might be able to start putting something together over the Christmas holidays) but I'll post some photos of the boxes when I get chance, to give you an idea of the scale of what I'm trying to shift...
In the meantime here's a link to what I currently have listed up on eBay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ssn=betel_uk&_ipg=200&rt=nc
All of that would be included...

If anybody out there is seriously interested in buying everything from me in one hit, drop me a PM... in the meantime I'll update this thread with more details as I collate them. If the list ever gets to a comprehensive state and I've had no interest here, I'll put a listing up on eBay...

I'm in Leicester if anybody is close by and wants to drop by for a gander...

Stock list makes it look like I do have copies, but I'll defer to Ghost as he responded first...

To put a bit of a spin on the PayPal "guilty until proven innocent" debate...

I've been buying and selling 2000ADs for a few years now and I've had almost no trouble with the people in the 2000AD community whatsoever. I guess it's partly to do with our age (mature vs immature) and the hobby / collector element of the stuff we're transacting, but I think you're far less likely to have a dispute with a Squaxx than you might selling an iPhone etc. which is where PayPal will step in with the letter of their Ts&Cs...

( and I don't know Martin, but he has a very trustworthy surname!  :D)

One of my favorite Guardian articles... 14 years old now (and originally read on paper on a train, now found again with a couple of searches)... but I think it benefits from a few extra years hindsight

Four hours and no response from Buttonman? Is The Beast no longer with us?

LOL  :lol: I found his thread after I posted this but couldn't find any mention of the Earthlet I'm looking for... I've PM'd him.

If he's any sense, he's out in the sunshine!

I've just started using that Pay Tag thing and it is on Barclaycard

(I'm no luddite, but I never got round to using contactless on my card - their marketing people seem to have hit on something though - they sent me the Pay Tag unsolicited, and somehow the idea of adding functionality to my phone "clicked" better than changing how I use my credit card. Tag was on that day. First use very next day. Now I'm annoyed when somewhere DOESN'T take contactless!)

Help! / List of Nerve Centre Contributors?

I'm SURE I've seen mention of a list of all the earthlets who've had letters or art published in the Nerve Centre or various competitions etc. but I'm damned if I can find it  :-[

Anyone know where I can find one?

I've LOADS of listings up on eBay at the moment, including some rarer stuff:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ssn=betel_uk&_sop=1&_ipg=200&rt=nc
I might get chance to put some more 99p listings up later today too...

As ever, I've literally 1,000s and 1,000s of back issues available - many more than I get time to list on eBay, so if there are any back progs you're looking out for, drop me a PM.

Thanks for looking...  :D
