Cirsova Cashflow Crisis

So, while Cirsova Publishing itself is doing okay, personal expenses have been mounting higher and higher over the last several months.

Because of last year’s tornado, my homeowner’s premiums went up by a lot and I had to pay a $900 escrow shortfall earlier this year.

I’ve had a minor plumbing job that cost around $400, needed to replace an AC capacitor, which was $200, needed to replace a lawnmower, which was $300, plus I’ve been having something go wrong with the car just about every month, whether it’s a oil valve needing replacing, or brakes needing replacing, or a belt needing replacing, so on and so forth. This week, while the SO was taking the car to visit a friend out of town, it broke down, needed a tow + a $700 repair job.

Basically, this has all added up to several thousand dollars in expenses that have eaten away at what spare funds I have for the magazine.

We’ve got a few listings we’ve added on eBay to try to both make space and get some extra cash:

First off, we have a bunch of DCC modules + the starter rules:

I’m selling my Batman No Man’s Land trade collection:

This one is big-ticket, but it’s easily a $1600 value to the right buyer; each band member fig goes for around $200 parted out, and this set comes with all 5 of them + 20 pit slave figures (those go for around 20-25) + the rules. We’re only asking $1000 for this, sealed in the box.

We also have a lot of original Cirsova artwork for sale, plus some board games and other miscellaneous items.

I’m going to be listing more graphic novels and more board games soon.
