Just happened to notice Dandy #2 on ebay with its free gift, and couldn't help but see 'Phil-comics' in the heading after it, although its not Phil that's selling it. There are at least another 2 sellers using Phils name in their titles, no doubt to attract more attention.
Its nothing to do with me, but if it was, I think I might have something to say about it.

Re: Phil-comics
Blimey the condition of both comic and frog is really very poor.
For the frog, you could scan the remaining leg, mirror it in designer, 3D print it, make a mold from it and then cast a white metal replacement to solder in place. At the same time as removing all the rust and cleaning up the paintwork. Few hours work but I think I'd do it to make it look far more presentable.
As to key word spamming Phil's name... bit of a cheek I think, annoying but not much you can do.

Re: Phil-comics
i actually spoke to phil about the other seller and he said it wasn't him as i assumed it was him with another maybe personal account.

Re: Phil-comics
Tbh I know he's been doing it for years, putting Phil-comics in his titles I mean, but I really never saw the point. If you want to follow his auctions you can and if you search for individual items his stuff will come up anyway.
I always felt it was wasting letters and even kind of key word spamming his own listings and leaving himself open for people to do exactly what's happened here - but heck what do I know!?

Re: Phil-comics
I've been confused with Phil-comics myself before now, though I think I've had my username longer than he's been trading under that title.
