When we met in Chicago you struck me as the sort who knew the value of reinventing oneself every 10 years or so. Your old self will be sorely missed here.

Best of luck George.

I hope you continue taking photographs George, whether it be vinyl figures or not.
Your photography work was certainly exceptional and along with the your fact, link filled Omni Monster site, your contribution to this hobby will be really missed.

best regards
ralph

But it was so self serving, self indulgent, overblown, and commercial.

Why reread that tripe?

Feel free to Ebay, I couldn't care less, except if you do it sooner rather than later then maybe you can fuck off (which actually would be nice).

It's confusing but he seems to be saying that if you PM him now with a figure request, he won't respond now, but might later.

Judging from the photos I believe he is also saying ash nazg durbatulúk, ash nazg gimbatul, ash nazg thrakatulûk agh burzum-ishi krimpatul.

This seems clear, but please move it to whatever thread you think it belongs, if not the sales thread. Sorry for any confusion.

Thanks!

from the photos all i can imagine is him in front of the computer saying"preeeccciooussss......"
I'm not making fun of him, just that all I can imagine is someone doing that....

Ok... so I guess i'm still confused...

It's clear but make an offer sales aren't allowed on the board anymore.

I'm not being the police, but everyone else follows this rule now.

I didn't mean to be mean with my LOTR joke either. Just joking.

Best wishes to you Geo. I have appreciated your photos very much.

Ok, not to spit hairs, but I am not asking people to make me an offer. I actually edited my original post to remove any reference to offers. I am just giving people a heads up that I am planning on selling most of my collection. I have received 50+ PMs in response, and NO ONE has made me an offer - and that is just fine with me. The PMs have just indicated that they might be interested in this or that if I am going to sell it. I have tried to respond that I am not sure yet how I am going to handle this, particularly where there are a whole bunch of people interested in the same figures. That is why I am saving people's PMs and have indicated I will get back to them as soon as I know how this will proceed.

It was not my intent to violate any "rule," express or implied.

Again, feel free to move this to "Whatever" or to any of the other threads where people seem to be selling stuff or taking preorders without being openly questioned about it.

I think it's pretty *attempts to be nice* self-centered to assume everyone knows what you mean when you say "entire collection." not everyone here knows you, or has read every single one of your posts. thank you for wasting our time.
