From what I've heard elsewhere, he's had time to attend comic cons and dinners with friends. Just not ship the books. But he feels terrible about it, in case anyone's wondering.

Well, suffice it to say, I think that if he can manage to get these books shipped out, he won't have to worry about shipping any more.

Hey all.....😞
Sorry is not enough! My world went upside down the last year and a half.🤬

Family life is very hard/depressing at the moment. Between family trouble, friends needing help, getting ripped off, my new meds screwed me up, car accidents, stays in hospital, OCD came back after many years, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH.......... it was extremely hard to function, to say the least!

Also, even like that I still needed to work and pay bills, I love what I do, but it was very tough to function during this time. I might even have lost a few "friends"

Anxiety and depression are hard to work through. Still no excuse.

I would never steal from anyone! I have had millions and millions of books from others, why would I steal so little when I could borrow that amount in a New York minute? Also, why ruin my life for that kind of money? I'm back in action, just sorry it took so long and that it might have affected your view of me, but more important, I am concerned about ComicLink as this has nothing to do with them, it's all on me. Josh Nathanson is family to me, has been for many, many years. He is probably one of the most honest persons I have ever met! I would never, ever, want to tarnish his great name or ComicLinks amazing rep!

I am very sorry that things went sideways with that sweet woman. CL and I are working hard to make this better than right for her.

As to the stuff I am planning on shipping out so damn late:

If you want a refund and some free comics, please PM me.

If you still want your order with free comics, please PM me as well.

If you feel the need, PM me and we will work something out.

The quicker the PM, the quicker I can get you what you need/want.

I have tried my very best to teach ethics in our great hobby as well trying to be a diplomat for us, teaching collectors (and even many dealers), helping people that are new navigate this complicated hobby/community, so they don't get ripped off, working for our hobby's great charity the Hero Initiative, given away more dollars than dimes to help others and have always tried to be fair to all my clients, as I hate thieves and hate seeing people lose money.

Please ask collectors and sellers about me and you will see that this is not like me at all, ever. Sometimes life gets too heavy and you feel like a poor fractured Atlas, as I did. The thing is to get through it and fix anything you messed up.

I want to thank all the people that kept their faith in me and reaching out to see what was up. I also want you all to know that even if you thought I was a thief, I am cool with that. I get it. I do not harbor any bad feelings about that, none at all. I hope none of you harbor resentment towards me. That's just the way that forums go.

I am probably not explaining everything to some's liking, but my family and my friends problems are not for public consumption. It would be unfair of me to do that to them.

Looking forward to hearing from those whose books have not shipped and make everything right.

Peace and love to you all! 🙏

☮️💖

BTW.....
The guys who ripped me off for big money are Ricky (Richard) Cicero and he lives in Ellenton FL.
His friend is Sabastian Begani.

@sborock_ComicLink

In the scheme of things (turn on the news) this is small potatoes and easily fixable. Just fix everything and apologize, it'll work out. I was never worried personally.

As you said why would you steal chocolate bars when you had lots of gold bars in front of you.

Josh is great as well as comic link, they are almost always my first choice selling larger items.

Best of luck everyone.

Steve,
Would you prefer a PM through CBCS message/mail or a message to your Comiclink email?
I do hope the best for you and your family. Thank you for the update.

@ICConquest

PM will be best.
My cell #, if you have it (I can always PM it to you), works in the afternoon when I am checking my texts.

Thank you very much for your kind words and understanding. 🙏

It gets old smelling it everytime I go outside my door. Nearmint67 private msg quote post Address this user
Hey Hippie,
Nice to see you back on your feet... Literally. Hope you heal up soon.
Your well being is waaaaay more important than some comic books.

PS... eat some PBJ's and a donut. Then have breakfast.
Have another donut with a milkshake and then have lunch.
And that cheesecake we were looking at when we were at the Cheesecake Factory in Winter Park, get some of that to have after dinner....Make sure you get Pam some too...

And after all that's happened... You still need a new car....dang it hippie...
Glad you are getting things back on track. Talk to you soon...

I was seriously considering the signed Jerry Siegel book but ultimately decided against it. I am relieved I did. What a sh!t show this turned out to be.

I sincerely feel for all those that got screwed over and I really hope you are all eventually made whole.

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. flanders private msg quote post Address this user

Like others have pointed out, if you're not going to send the books refund the money. No one should have to ask for a refund at this point.

Just putting it for the record for everyone else that is still waiting for their books that I didn't receive my books yet either. So I think we are all still in the same boat and I don't think any of the books shipped.

If you see this Steve, the same things I said to you over the phone. I hope you are feeling better and you can make it your first priority to get these shipped out. I'm not sure what exactly that would entail, but as you said, you have no more excuses.

Could you let us know if it’s the books you ordered when you get a chance to open? That would be great news if it is.
