Just won this auction on the bay this morning for a cant loose 30 bucks

sorry about the pic it's the ebay one.I'll have new pics when the comic arrives.

Even though it's just a PPSSM #6, it's my very first pedigree book!

 

Grats on your first pedigree!

Just a PPSSM #6?

It's a SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN #6

Beauty book dude

great books hawkeye

Have bought a decent amount of books this year, but my final book of the year is a personal grail and worth sharing...

 

Moon Knight is one of my Favs as well,awesome find cant get much better than that

Wow, the books some of you have are amazing (pardon the very bad pun)!

 

I've never thought of completing a run of Amazing Spider-Man, but now I'm thinking of just getting certain key issues. I have Amazing Fantasy #15 (it's in rough shape, but it's the holy grail of my collection) and that's about it for early issues.

 

I just bought Amazing Spider-Man #408 (white cover variant) along with Sensational Spider-Man #1 (white cover variant)....now I'm trying to search for the other two to complete the set...but this thread has me thinking I should hunt for older issues as well (Amazing Spider-Man #1 would be awesome to have).

Welcome mate. If you've got an AF 15 you've got a helluva start!

Welcome to the boards

Haven't posted a new book in awhile, but this just came in the mail today...

 

 

Glad it got there safe and sound. (thumbs u

 

Dang my man, you gave up a white page beauty like this

 

Yes, it was indeed a very nice copy. But I don't really collect Spideys anymore....I just sell them to fuel my Golden Age collection. Besides, when you've owned a dozen or so NM copies of a particular book, selling another one is no big deal....

You are in fact a God among men

I had three express books finally switch from verified to graded on Friday. Once they return I will post them.....until then, I will say that one of them is now a top census mo-fo. And no, it is not Rocket Racoon or Skateman.

Is it a House of Secrets #92?

That's a real beauty! (thumbs u

If this isn't the proper spot to ask this just ignore the question. I can't decide if I want to keep this book or not. I like the book but I am thinking I could get a decent copy of a silver age key (obviously in a much lower grade) in a trade. I do like the book but maybe I would just be as happy with a 9.4.

 

Any opinions? What would be a reasonable trade for this book?

 

I can't tell you what might be a good trade, but if you think you'd be as happy with a lower grade copy, then go for it. The high grades get such a premium that you should do pretty well. This is just me, but if I were you I'd cash in on the 9.6, get me a 9.0 or even an 8.5, and dip into some SA goodness with the remainder.

If it were me I would keep the book knowing I had the highest census book,and that it's proudly in my collection

Just picked up this one from Foolkiller. Another BA upgrade for me...

 

Very sweet book

I am pretty sure I chronicled my search for about the last year or so, for a nice VF or better SC 22... I am, by my nature, a DC man, and when it came to SA keys, I was just more drawn to sc 22 than sc 4 (likely for affordability)...

 

in my search, I noticed a TON of fr to g/vg copies, but didn't see all that many vg or better copies for sale... so, as my personal search continued, I started picking up any nice vg or better copy (speculating, if you will)... and, well, that part of the story is fairly well chronicled here on the boards (I think I bought and subsequently sold about 14+ copies)...

 

what also has been alluded to, was that I finally was able to procure that VF copy I was after... I paid STRONG for it, but I felt it was a book that had no place to go but up and gosh darnit, I had been making offers on this copy for dern near a year (each offer higher than the last)...there always seems to be a point at which a "sale" will happen

 

I had the book pressed and was prepared to send to CGC... today, I sold it for a sum of money that, well, really boggles my mind...

 

it is no secret that any book I collect or own, I will make available (at the right price)... for me, collecting is as much about the hunt and pursuit, as the acquisition... I applaud those that can hang onto books forever, but when you spend the kind of money some do on certain books, well...you have to realize they are a tangible asset...

 

with this sale, I no longer am a member of the sc 22 club, but I hope to be again soon

 

Congrats on the sale.

 

The buyer must really know his grading. It would be difficult for me to ever buy a book of such worth unslabbed for fear of it coming back a much lower grade than expected or even worse PLOD.

 

Did you attach any sort of "guarantee" to the book?

It's also a trust issue.I would buy from Rick because I trust him as a person,and his grading skills.Congrats on the sale

I received some more Linsner goodness today
