But she said she was gonna come back after 200 lots or so. Gosh, I'm sad that it's around 1a now in the U.K. She's something I've never seen, that's for sure, but according to another fellow who wrote me who really knows about comics, she's very familiar and can sometimes be irritating. I hope I see her again; she's like a Texas cowgirl selling geeky comics as if they're farm animals, talking about "pedigree" and origins and all that good stuff... -d.

Too late, she's gone and been replaced by some geeky guy. On 27 Feb 2009, at 00:39, David Kusumoto wrote: Someone just wrote me that she looks like she escaped from a Howard Hawks film. Well, the woman said on screen that she used to wear a Wonder Woman costume as a kid and I believe it. But she just took a break and will be back later. Now they got a guy on screen who really LOOKS like he collects comics. Her whooping and hollering and jokes and comments -- all of her theater -- makes me wonder if she's having the effect of pushing up bids amongst the newbies in the crowd. It's like she's selling cattle! The thing that's amazing -- and it should be addressed -- is how comics make movie posters look like small potatoes. Comic prices are in outer space, way HIGHER than Universal Horror; unbelievable! Man, I feel old. This thing is supposed to last for another 300 lots or so....and I think is gonna continue tomorrow. -d.

To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU I'm don't buy comics anymore, but there are a few titles I am tracking at Heritage. Well, I think if you're interested, you ought to go to Heritage Live now and check out the live video feed. There's a woman auctioneer now on screen who is funny and engaging and really knows how to project and speak faster than a Maserati. And she's a hard seller. A big difference from the stuffy and starchy auctioneers I've seen in NY and London. Go to: http://comics.ha.com/?ic=task-comics ..and click the Live Auction / Bid Now button.
