Damn I wish I'd seen this thread sooner! I can't believe the nerve of the guy, he's not even selling my scans, just a hyperlink to my site!

I especially feel bad for aktionfigguy, he got burned worse than the others. I've tried to PM him through eBay but keep getting blocked as I'm not in transaction with him. Does anyone know how I can reach him?

I have discovered a number of Scams being operated via ebay more recently and have hardly used it as a result. It seems pointless reporting anything because they don't follow anything up. This really is terrible news and the seller ought to be strung up for it.

Have you tried 26pigs? I found the best way was to contact ebay bidders from other battle auctions and offer swaps. Sorry, no I don't - but I can tell you in roughly five years of comic marts I never saw a single issue of Battle...

There is a comic scanning project in the works, something like the first 30 have been done already, I've scanned the Summer Specials and D-Day Dawson paperback.

ariaisland, I've had a sort through.

I got 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd of June, 1984.

13th and 27th of October, as well as 3rd November, 1984.

Hope this can go some way to helping you out.

I also have a spare first issue from 1983 ( no date though).



If anyone else needs comics, then I'm gonna post up the other dates,

At present it seems to be june 1984 to end jan 1985 and then jan 1986 as well.

There's also a few of the Marvel Action Force around as well.



I may have a few more, as I've just moved house and all the Action Force are all still in boxes.


Hopefully we can get enoughs swaps going that we can all complete our collections.
