I look around to see if there is an Asian with printing press ink on their fingers or clothes (my wife taught me that, so don't anybody get all uppity with the "he's prejudiced" krap. |

Why would they forge a Action #1 to sell it for 25c? Why did they hand wash shirts for 1/2 cents each? BTW, your hypothetical stated YOU bought it for 25 cents, not that the ask price was 25 cents. Not to mention, it could be copied for about 7 cents on the home computer and the person buying it for 25 cents would not know it was real or not anyway, if the person was stupid enough to buy it for 25 cents. |

All joshing aside, I would inform the person, but, because you never know, I would offer to have it appraised by a TPG and consult for a 10% fee on a Sale if it by some weird occurrence turned out to be legitimate. |

I would probably buy it then cut her in for half later. |

I moved this thread to the Comic Book board. The way I navigate this board is I click on recent threads. Thats my main page. I never go to separate forums. |

I tidy up when I see stuff, so do the Mods. Everyone uses this forum a little bit differently. Some people...quite a few actually...use the Participated button...so many in fact that I started using it myself. The problem with that comes from new threads...since you never see anything unless you've already posted in the thread. I usually use Recent Posts, that way you don't miss anything. |

Another popular method is to use Mark All Boards Read and only look at the new posts. I think this was Slym's method if I recall. |
