I finally got the Yale hit but it started me at 7/10 for the tutorial! No idea what's going on. :rain:

Don't bother with a hit have them send you a bonus.

He used to pay a lot more for the same hits and has rejected many. I used to enjoy them but personally do not feel comfortable doing work for him anymore. YMMV
i did like 30 of them, i`ll stop now and check if they app later. thanks

Do you have a list of what you have? I'm not into comics but if you had any I had as a kid I'd be interested in a few. PM me if you have a list.
I'm working on making a list of what I have. Haven't gone through all of them yet, only 8 out of 300! Lol... but I will definitely PM you a list as soon as I'm done :)

is john taylor good requester? some bad reviews on turk opticon. afraid of rejections from him. "Determine whether a company is a digital marketing agency or not."
it varies, but he has been known to mass reject if I recall correctly. Just be careful, maybe download the 'best/worst case scenario' script.

I'm in contact with a requester who is trying to post a dummy hit to compensate me for a broken survey, but sends me a title and "searchable keywords" that don't result in any HITs. He says its been published and live for 22 hours. I'm going on 7 days of back and forth communication with this guy and failed HITs/searches. He can't seem to provide me a requester name/ID, or HIT ID, or anything else useful. It's UCLA, according to the email, so I don't think I'm being scammed. Anybody have any ideas?
:confused: That sounds, not right. COULD be someone keeps grabbing it before you can see it but still, I think they should be able to give you more information.

Weird. I've never gotten a reject from a9 ever. Didn't know they took the time to reject!
I think I've had 2 or 3 of mine rejected for them but I know they were deserved (I was using kaduchi's script for the first time and I was going too fast)

That is always the best way when you are unsure about any requester. Check TO, do a few, see if they approve and then decide if they are worth it. At least that is my method! :D

I asked this question to the night crew... Hoping the day crew can help :)

Long story short I just bought about 300 comic books I'm looking to sell and only want to sell on eBay as a last resort. What other options are out there for selling comics books? Does anyone have a website or service they'd recommend? I'm not looking to unload quickly, but don't want to keep them forever either. I haven't had the chance to go through all of them yet... but they seem like a good mix of Marvel, DC, and Walt Disney comics ranging from 1960 -1991. I will be going through them individually when it's slow on turk and looking up the value on each one. They are all in excellent condition and I bought them for $1/ea because the guy is moving and doesn't want to deal with them. Hoping to make my money back plus some. I have a feeling that some are pretty valuable, but don't know for sure just yet. *fingers crossed* So far I've looked up only 8 of them and they have a total value of $90! 292 more to go...

I've collected comics and sold them on Ebay. I've found when dealing with just one or two high quality items priority mail flat rate envelopes are life savers. Free shipping is a huge draw and you can usually make up the difference in bid increases. Good luck!
