Black Friday Comics Book Sale - $1,000 Shopping Spree Winner
Howdy!
I am truly beat today, as I loaded and unloaded 5,000 lbs of comics (120 long boxes...) in Dallas yesterday.
What I purchased there was an incredible private collection that was offered to me only after the seller had
already received the insanely low offer of $20/box from a major local retailer. After I heard the story of that
ridiculous offer, I agreed to fly down to Texas on very short notice, and was able to pay this dedicated fan
considerably more than $20/box for his lifetime of accumulation.

While my trip to Texas was an amazing success, it does mean that I am going to postpone my buying trip to the
East Coast by five weeks. I was originally going to leave for New York on Friday evening, but we now have 120
more long boxes of comics to sort, which will keep us busy all through December. Simply put, there's no point in
my buying comics that we cannot sort any time soon. That being the case, I am now shooting for the first week
of January for my next East Coast buying trip. Also, on a side note, my beloved wife, Nanette, is having hip
replacement surgery on December 6th. As much as I love going out and buying comics, I think it best that I spend
some time helping her to prepare for this major medical procedure. I apologize to those of you who are awaiting
my arrival on the East Coast, but this short delay is important.

In other comics news, our Black Friday sale on
Trade Paperbacks and Hardbacks
begins today, with all of our Trade Paperbacks on
our website
discounted by 40% off, and all of our Hardback comics collections discounted by 30% off. There are no additional
discounts on our
back issue comics and/or magazines,
as I already lowered all of our comics prices for you by 50%-70% off four weeks ago. We do, however, have a selection
of exceptionally nice free items that you can receive as a reward for placing a minimum $50 order with us that we
have listed for you at the end of this newsletter. Just mention in the "notes" as to which free items you would
like. Please have a wonderful holiday, and try to find some time to enjoy your comics.
Norrie Reynolds, Empress 43 of the Imperial Court of the Rocky Mountain Empire
Moving on, I want to sincerely thank everyone who purchased a
gift certificate
from us over the past three weeks. Thanks to your kindness, our effort to help
Imperial Court of the Rocky Mountain Empire Empress
43 Norrie Reynold's Snow Ball charities
(Rainbow Alley
and
Urban Peak)
was a remarkable success. Through your contributions we were able to purchase over $2,000 in brand new hoodies, scarves,
gloves, underwear, and socks to give out to homeless teens. We also sponsored 50 young people into the ball from
local colleges who could otherwise have not been able to afford to attend, and still had enough left over to present
our Empress with a cash donation check for $4,320.00. This donation will help considerably as
Rainbow Alley
and
Urban Peak
prepare to help kids on the street get through the bitter winter. Thank you to everyone who contributed!
Snow Ball Contribution Check
In case you are wondering, our winner of the $1,000.00 Mile High Comics shopping spree that I personally donated was
Douglas of Carmel, California. Congratulations, Douglas! If you purchased a
gift certificate
and did not win, do not despair. I am starting another $1,000.00 gift certificate contest today. This next drawing will
include an entry for any
$25 gift certificates
purchased between now and December 31st. Funds from this next series of
$25 gift certificates
will go to help the elderly and disabled who are helped by Jim Scharper's
"Feeding Denver's Hungry"
organization. I have a source of inexpensive gloves, so that will be our main contribution this winter.
So you know, I already have 600 more pairs of gloves on order, in addition to the 300 pairs currently sitting in the
back seat of my van. We will be distributing free meals (and gloves) to the homeless tomorrow on the streets of lower
downtown. If you live near Denver and would like to help us, we will start packing meals at 9 AM at
Li'l Devils Bar,
just off the corner of Broadway and Alameda. We should start passing out meals around 11AM, and be done by noon. Helping to
feed those who have nothing is an awesome way to give back on Thanksgiving...

Happy collecting!
