Description

So, almost a month ago, Archie Comics artist Rex W. Lindsey put up on ebay the art for an entire comic book: the cover and all 23 interior pages from "Archie & Friends" No. 90. He had a starting bid of $129.99 and a "Buy It Now" of $169.99.

Gambling I could save a few dollars, I bid, intending to snipe at the last moment, provided I could get it for less than the "Buy It Now" price. But I lost out and it went for over $180 in the end. I thought to myself what I often do at those moments: "Maybe I'll get a Second Chance offer," knowing full well that I wouldn't.

But I did! Shock! Amazement! $142.64 + shipping sent off the next day!
...
And so I waited for the art to arrive, dutifully watching the tracking number every day:

Accepted at Colorado Springs, CO
Processed at Aurora, CO
Departing Aurora
Arriving in Rochester, NY
Processed
Departing the Rochester Sort Facility
Arrival at Rochester Post Office
Out for Delivery
Undeliverable as addressed
!
Processed through Sort Facility
Undeliverable as addressed

And it eventually went back to Colorado Springs. Turned out Lindsey had mis-written my address and he apologized and resent the art.

This piece, an original drawing of dim-witted Moose, was his apologetic "extra" for all the trouble.
