I was asked why my books are so expensive on Ebay/ Amazon? Well, I DO NOT sell via Ebay or Amazon. What you have there are people who buy the book from my online store and then re-price (hiking up the price) and sell on those sites.
The Ultimate British Comics Gold Collection is being sold for £37-75.00 or $49.97-101.17 or Euro 42.58 -86.32. The same thing is happening with other books including The Hooper Interviews which I have seen described as "rare" -it is not as it has never been out of print.
The Gold Collection is 400+pp £25.00 + 4.94 for priority mail so £29.94 so you work out whether it's simpler to buy from my online store or buy from someone who has to order and then send to your address at a much inflated price.
There is another side to this. You order from a third party seller then it is buyer beware. About 4 years ago I had an email out of the blue asking where a book ordered was. I asked what they were talking about and they told me the title, what they paid for it (£15 above cover price) and that after 3 weeks it had not turned up. I checked and no such order but a copy of the book had been purchased by Amazon to resell under their deal with the print on demand company (the Amazon sale got me 5o/50 cents on a £20 book sale).
I to9ld the buyer I needed his order number to sort out what was going on. He then told me that he had purchased 'post free' (no such thing) from a dealer. It seems the dealer bought the book cheap on Amazon to sell it on. I pointed out to the buyer that he had paid £15 over the cover price and that as he had not purchased from my online store but a third party it was out of my hands and "tough luck" for helping to cheat me out of a semi decent sale.
The book eventually turned up 4 weeks after he had ordered it and he showed me the invoice that was inside as the seller had bought the book on Amazon at a discount of £10 but sold it for £35. Why was he showing me the invoice? He wanted me to take action to get money back -seriously. I told him that he had been on the online store so saw the cost but had ordered at a higher cost thinking he had free postage without checking and so it had absolutely nothing to do with me.
If you are interested in a book on the online store then you can go through the ordering process and up to the Choose delivery method point which would show you total cost. If you decide against buying leave the page as you are NEVER charged unless you click "Pay Now". As shown below
Buy smart!
Although there are some classic cases in these books the majority involve cases that are very rare, have never appeared in English before and unlike most "clump everything together to fill a book" efforts these look at aspects of cases as well as some very common but not reported on before entity and scenario types.
Someone who has been involved in Ufology since the 1980s noted: "Over half these cases I have never heard of before!"

"I read the original quote from that German blogger and thought it was a lot of hot air. When Return of the Gods: Twilight of the Super Heroes arrived I thought "thick book" and knew you'd taken it from 96 pages to 360+...it looked impressive. I read through it in two days and -robots, aliens, "gods", super heroes, sorcerers, alien invasions and more and world-wide. And you tell me this was done without a script?! It's the only one I can think of so, yeah, the greatest British super hero graphic novel fits as a description." Pete Clark
"You say this is your final big story? The Green Skies was fantastic and everything laid out into chapters was a great touch!"
David Stephens, Comic Reviews
" 'Holy ******* ****!' was all I could say. I even tried counting the number of characters and how the **** you produced all of this without a script beats me. Return of the Gods: Twilight of the Super Heroes and The Green Skies could only have been better if George Perez had drawn it!"
Dan's Comics
"I have no idea why you are not pushing this even harder. The books Return of the Gods: Twilight of the Super Heroes and The Green Skies I would love to see in German or at least get German fans to read since it has a good number of German heroes in it. Next big comic event over here send me copies and I'll sell them on my table!"
Gerd Hammer, German comics historian and trader
Selected comic readers were also chosen to review copies and, obviously, two of these were people from Hong Kong who I corresponded with on Manhua over the years.
"I just wish someone like Tong Li would publish this in Chinese -I mean there are Chinese heroes in this so why not?"
Wang Xiuying
"There HAS to have been a script and more than one person working on this! Brilliant!"
Mike Wayne, Australian comic dealer
Generally, these comments were all similar and I only quote these as any more would be very egotistical. The books should speak for themselves.
