Jim,
I saw you were bidding on a lot of six of the Mule vs. Chasm tins on eBay. I know a few people that were interested in these, but didn't want to bid you up. Since there are six of them in this lot, would you be willing to sell a couple of them?

i thought what i would do is put a package together of my extras and sell them in lots.this way the buyer gets more for the money and i get rid of more stuff i dont need.

Jim, I'll vouch for Brother J. If he screws you over, I'll send you the money myself. Also, if you get the money up front and make sure it goes through, then he's the only one really taking the risk. The person taking the risk is almost always the buyer. Q |

Well, thanks for the good word, DP! Actually I'm going to hold off, I was actually asking for one of the guys on the VALIANT board who was thinking about bidding on the auction. He didn't want to bid Jim up much on it, but I think he did place a small bid. Anyway, the seller ended up sending him a second chance offer, so he has six of them winging their way to him now. I would like to have one of those tins, but that's something I'm going to wait to persue until my move happens.

I would like to have one of those tins, but that's something I'm going to wait to persue until my move happens. When I was making the ultimate Defiant comics information site, I thought this was a really neat tin to own. I didn't know it had actually been produced and sold. I thought they were samples. Now though, I'm more concerned with trimming down my collection to things I'm proud to own and show off. Tins are something too awkward for me to store. As far as vouching for you, I'd rather Jim be concerned about the bigger problems in life. I've never had an ounce of doubt trusting you for anything and I'll stand on my soapbox to dish out praise just as easily as I'll do to point out hypocrisy in others. Defiant1 |

This board has always been fair about sharing deals or not jacking up prices just because two people have similar tastes. A lot of the items we talk about do not have wide range collector value. I don't like a predatory board where people are just trying to milk other collectors for money. Buying and selling is fine. Acting like a vulture or heyena to hype a product or get a sale is discouraged. It's not forbidden, just discouraged. I prefer this to be collector oriented with information sharing. Defiant1 |

Defiant1 I'm good with that. I managed to get six of these tins in the deal (it was a six-for-one-price lot) and sent the remaining five out to the first five members that asked for one. What was I going to do with six of those? |

I plan on consolidating all of my message board identities into MedicAR soon, so it's no big secret!
Thanks for looking out for me though!

My files are in disarray, due to hard drive crashes. I don't recall having a scan or photo, but that doesn't mean I didn't have picture at one point. Corvette Jim probably has a picture. Card are not really my specialty. I steered clear after the Dark Dominion set. I never chased after the promo stuff nor any card products at that point.

Does that Defiant Genesis have the insert bound inside the comic? And is the Mule/Chasm tin just the tin with no cards inside? And those tins weren't actually released to shops? There are 3 versions of Defiant Geneisis 1) With banner text on the cover & no card insert. 2) With banner text and include card insert-- limited to 10,000 (ha! ha!) 3) No banner text on the cover & no card insert. (this seems to be the rarest) The Mule/Chasm tin is just a tin without cards. It was solicited & sold in stores. For a long time I thought the ones floating around were insider "samples". Later I found out they were sold through the stores. Defiant1 |
