Just for fun, I'm going to mention a few of my DS items--with which I have no plans to part--I'd like to hear from some of you what you might be willing to pay:

1)  View Master reel set--mint condition;

2)  Original copy of Sam Hall's TV Guide article: "In Case You're Curious. . ."

3)  Original copy of TV Guide article: "Where Have All The Werewolves Gone?"

LET'S HEAR ALL THOSE HIGH BIDS!! (LOL).

In one of my messages to this sellar, I mentioned I had "won" eBay auctions for vintage movie posters of HODS (30"x40") and NODS (40"x60"), both rolled and on what I would call "card-stock", for $85.00 and $49.00, respectively.  (I'm still in awe that I was able to find these posters and have been able to put them up in my living room--albeit with tacks. . .I can't afford to have them framed--yet!!--but that's another story.)  The sellar pretty much told me that I knew nothing about "collectibles."  (It doesn't help that most of my other bids within the last week or so have been in the range of $5.00-$10.00--but that's also another story--RICHARD RODGERS' items are not going for outrageous prices on eBay)  Okay, so  much for his opinion.

Anyway, I've seen copies inferior to mine of those HODS/NODS posters go for much more--and more power to the sellers of same--but let's all try to be reasonable about this stuff.  (I guess WE are!--but not everyone in the world.)

I'm rambling for no other reason than I can't believe someone would think a DS fan would pay nearly $2000 for such a collection:  but the real kick in the face will be when we next check eBay and find that someone actually did pay that much!!!  LOL. :-[

Thanks for your comments.  I still think he/she is WAY overpriced--but he/she will soon learn the reality of DS fandom/bidding. . .we're not all rich. ;D

Please make up your own mind without consideration of my opinion.   Thanks, Brian.

Fantastic interview, Darren!  I finally got a chance to hear it all the way through (actually, I put it on a CD and listened to it today during a long commute)


Thanks, Midnight--what a good idea for commuters. ;)

Maybe I'm the one who is wrong--but please check out this auction and decide for yourself if "the price is right."

Hi, Gang.  As a long-time eBay bidder, I want to share my opinion that a seller named avaliotiko may be taking advantage of loyal DARK SHADOWS fans by offering items for sale at highly ridiculous prices.  The claim is that this seller knows market value of collectibles--but after spending the last two years viewing and bidding on eBay (and other auction sites), I find this seller's prices completely NOT in line with what else is available.  So, I only say:  BEWARE!!

It's fun to view once in a while. . .I have the MPI VHS video.  For what it is worth, I actually saw it for the first time when it originally aired in 1969.

For those of you who may not have seen this magazine, I have a copy I bought at Barnes and Noble several years ago.  I've kept it all these years because Darren's articles are excellent, and highly re-readable (is that a word?).  I'm not trying to help Darren sell the few extra copies he has, but I would encourage any DS fan to take advantage of Darren's offer (or--at least--go to eBay and try to find the same magazine--and you will probably pay far too much for it.)

Okay--now I'm a man with a mission.  Not that it's any big deal, but since my job as a union Business Agent gives me complete access to all areas of Walt Disney World, I'm going to go to the Magic Kingdom sometime in the next week or so and visit the HM (it's been about 5 years since I last visited that attraction--there are  no live actors there, so I have no reason to view it regularly) and pay very close attention to ALL the female voices!!  I'll let you know what I hear.   ;)

My last order, purchased via credit card, was in my mail box three (business) days after I placed the online order.  I think I paid for priority mail, though.

I saw the end today's episode, too--in anticipation of the WIZARD OF OZ "tribute" with Timmy (and Toto.)--and couldn't decide if the use of the DS theme was tribute or parody.  Any thoughts?

I had Partridge Family albums, too. Several. You know what else? I've now got a slew of Partridge Family mp3s. Go on. Laugh all you want to. Bobubas made me do it. For real, he did. Ask Minja.[shadow=purple,left,300]--Mark[/shadow]


Okay, Mark. . .let's all thank (or blame?) Bobubas!!! (A good friend of mine appeared in a stage show last weekend in which other cast members suddenly appeared as Shirley, Laurie, Danny and Keith--my friend's fantasy in the play was that Keith fell in love with him--and two audience members were brought up to play the two youngest Partridges!)

In the meantime, I'm now of the lookout for that Disney LP--I emailed Mom and asked her to send it down to FL!

(Who can't even believe he actually admitted to watching the Partridge family -- what's next? Admission to watching THE MONKEES?  (Don't ask!!)   ;D

:-[  Ahhhhhh. . .I was at my parant's house in Ohio several weeks ago and Mom mentioned all the LPs she had--I looked through them to discover many that I had bought as a kid:  Partridge Family, Gary Lewis and the Playboys (remember them?) and--yes--CHILLING, THRILLING SOUNDS OF THE HAUNTED HOUSE.  Did I bring that back to Florida with me?  NO!!!  (Stupid me!)

Guess I'll call Mom tomorrow and ask her to find that LP and drop it in the mail.

So much for my DVD problems.   ::)

But this last page of posts was more fun, anyway!
