AAAARRRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

The holy grail on my want list, Creepy 14, was on sale on ebay up until today. It was an eight day listing for this issue in CGC 9.2 with white pages beginning yesterday. Unfortunately, I'm about broke at the moment and my credit cards are maxed out. I had hoped that the book would go unnoticed for its eight day tenure, but no such luck. Sold sometime today in the afternoon. It has been ages since this particular issue has been on the market in CGC. Just how long? The last sale was in August, 2005! It features the first work by Neal Adams in a Warren mag. As far as tough to find Adams books go, this one tops the list. Well, maybe the buyer will decide to flip it over. I can only wish. I'm sure many of you out there have had this same experience. What gnaws at me was the fair buy it now price of $96. I should have sold a book from my collection at my LCS as soon as I saw it on ebay.
