There are no limitations on the number of sets you can buy from Happy Jack Collectables, eBay ID happy_jack_c, through their eBay shop. According to my watched list, they still have 85 sets available. So still plenty left for those who want them

A quick search for 'Bettie Page Private Collection Set' should locate them.

Everyone collects differently, but for me, it would be no big deal adding the chase to my Want List along side my other incomplete series; some of which have been on my list for 25 years or more. Patience.

I just assume he is using the e-bay site to sell the Bettie Page sets - why open a new one?

Sorry to confuse you Wolfie, I was only talking about the eBay outlet. The eBay store there is also called 'Happy Jack Collectables'

What was closed was the official Happy Jack website. What stayed open was the store on eBay which has been there for years.

They have begun shipping at a very slow pace. We are trying to get customer's orders out in the order in which they were received. So whether they are in the U.S. or out of the country, they will ship in order. So please have patience, you won't be disappointed.
Thanks,
Billy

Can't wait to get my sets

Hopefully my binders will arrive this week as well.

hammerGREAT NEWS - I have the binder and Promo's now I want the actual set

Arvin SloaneMaybe Harris could give us some advance instructions on how he wants us to handle posting our breaks as some of the images are rather risque. I was at work last night and was checking out Scoundrel as several of the artists have now started posting their wares and realized I needed to wait until I got home to view those cards as some of my co-workers wouldn't appreciate the subject matter.

VersicolorThis week we have begun to ship the Bettie Page Private Collection card sets. Sets will be sent in the order purchases were received. Being new to this business we didn't set an actual "street date" where dealers can begin selling the sets. So some of the dealers who ordered at later dates will not be getting their sets for a week or two. We apologize for any confusion this may cause to our customers & dealers and please ask for your patience. This being our first set, it has been a learning process and we may end up releasing future sets in a common manner more suitable to the trading card hobby. Thank you for your support, please keep checking back with your favorite dealers as they will be receiving their orders soon. We hope you enjoy the set as much as we have enjoyed making it for you.

VersicolorHere are a couple of pics of the tins the Bettie Page sets come in.
The art on the front is from a sketch card by Chris Hoffman.

That could prove a little difficult at the moment as I don't think anywhere has them for sale (except maybe dealers awaiting stock). I just tried the Versicolor shop and found this message:
Temporally Out of Stock
NB, that's their spelling mistake not mine

Ted Dastick Jr.I'm excited!!!!!
