I can't wait till we get our Layton sketch covers Marc!!

Me either...hopefully he'll be up for a couple of sketches at his next appearance

That's an awesome SW #8 you've got there, Lloyd

 

Ive seen alot of head sketches on that book but that book and the doom head sketch n black sm venom combo are by far the 3 best Ive seen.

 

I love Doom, Venom, Spidey & Iron Man in fact would love a IRON MAN 150 CGC 9.8 SS BOOK

Working on an Iron Man #150 CGC SS 9.8...hopefully I'll be able to get it signed (and maybe head sketched ) at Layton's next appearance

Just got these 4 back from CGC today (Thanks again, Nick (thumbs u )

Thanks Sarah. I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee it. I don't think CGC should knock comics down so much for text indentations - Not to the extent of a 7.5 anyway, but it turned out a good thing I guess - because it was more affordable!

That's a sweet looking copy, Lloyd...congrats

That and our mutual love for Anna Torv.

mmmmm....Torv.......

Chandler, you are right. 1% grade drop is phenomenal on that number of books when you consider what the possibilities for trouble are. Just handling a book out of case can cause damage and you might not even be aware of it as I was not in the case of the Hulk #2. Apparently a spine split appeared that was not there before, and I handled it with kid gloves as a book of that caliber deserves. I am extremely careful with books. But anything can happen.

 

I'm sure the guy who you got the 9.8 Hulk 181 signed for by Stan Lee during the run up to the Wolverine movie is glad he took a chance, since that paid off big time. Had it gone from 9.6 to 9.4, the loss would have been huge too, so it's all about how much risk you are willing to take as an investor and collector.

 

At the end of the day, it tends to balance out, for example, I also got a grade bump on my X-men #1 CGC SS Stan Lee, it went from 5.0 to 5.5, cha ching! The problem is you don't have control over it, so unless you are comfortable with the very real possibility of a grade drop, don't do it. 1% chance of grade drop is pretty good odds, but if it occurs on your most expensive book, you will still be upset.

 

This is one reason why I have such respect for the people who are doing high value Golden Age books, they are committed for sure. If we're talking about modern-age books, it's not such a big deal because even if you can't live with the grade drop, should it occur, replacing the 9.8 is relatively easy and inexpensive (with a few exceptions), when you compare to the cost of key silver and golden age books. Yep, I rambled on again.

 

Bill.

But a well written ramble (thumbs u

Kudos to nochips for another great deal and fast shipping!

Some serious kudos to jonjesper for some slabs, a BWS sig and a Byrne/Claremont sig. As I'm still paying for some of these, I'll probably leave kudos again, but you certainly deserve some kudos now. Thanks JJ!!! :hail:
