Dead Reign - advance publication photocopy - signed

IS MINE!!!!

Someone, someone was just fighting me tooth and nail for that. I honestly didnt want to pay as much as the bids went, but I was being stubborn. Besides, the money goes to Palladium. Whoever was bidding against me was as stubborn as me. I just happened to be faster. He/she was trying to outbid me down to the second.

Pffft... I have the original manuscript to four as of yet unpublished books on the schedule.

Bidding starts at $1,000,000.

Why bid on Josh's overpriced manuscripts. I'm starting bids on Yin-Sloth Jungles 2nd at an affordable $10,000.

I am curious as to who it was that was bidding against me.
I would love to shake their hand for putting up a good fight!

I was bidding on it until it got up to $55. I was out then, the most I ever spent on a book on Ebay was a Rifts Manhunter for $60. Whoever it was must have been a hardcore fan!

Ok man now that you'll have all the Art for dead reign I expecting a mess of DR Avatars P.S. I just Framed up the Dead reign Original I promised you. See you at the open house

I would say it was Dennis/Subjugator, but I know he's happy sitting on the Printer's Proof. So perhaps it was Preacher? The only other person I'd peg to spend that much money.

It arrived today.
It is sitting in my fiancee's (26 days from being my wife) car.


edit: I found her spare keys in the house, drove to her work (5 minutes away) and grabbed the book from her car.

I had my max set at $300, but I never thought the other guy would have gone that high.

Sorry to hear that you had to back out. Hopefully you make it to the rest of the event?

Lord NorDeth wrote:How long did it take you to get all of the pages into sleeve protectors? (1 hr and 45 mins for me!)

I never even thought of that. As thick of a stack as the photocopy is, yours must be about 50% larger then before the sleeves. I am comteplating taking my copy to Staples, having them re-scan it so that the pages are double sided, have them reduce the amount of space the text/graphics take on a page by about 5% and then have them spiral bound it. This will reduce its size by 50%.

Yeah, it's a monster with the sleeves on it, I've got it in a huge binder I threaten to hit my players with if they mis-behave!

Sorry to hear that. I'm a fellow Canadian. Though I'm a con goer so I tend to save up 800-1000 for each con whenever possible.

I got one with the Xmas suprise package...

I didnt consider it a waste of money.
I had the money to spend, so I did.

Id buy it.

I been trying to collect the "Weird War" comics for along time... Had dozens of them.

Until I had a flood, and they were destroyed..

Trying to recollect them now.. but, its not going very well at all. But Yeah, I know what its like to spend alot of cash on a comic book.
