  1. Get ready for it - Giants are going to win.
  2. I just got jerked around by this guy on some of my X-Men books on ebay - thanks for the heads up on his accounts. Just blocked them all. Sorry to hear that Dre. I saw positive feedback from you on his main account so I assumed it went smoothly. Yeah, that was for some stuff he picked up in October. The same Uncanny X-Force slabs he keeps trying to resell at the moment.

  4. This guy was a subscriber to my 9.8 pre-screen service but up and disappeared. nvista I'm owed $70 (two slabs) He hasn't posted in over a year.
  5. Is this where I come to beat up on people who haven't paid for stuff? ... Or do I do it in Probation Discussions?
  6. I wish I could say I pulled it on my own but I found it at a dealer in Austin. The funny thing is I passed on the book when I looked at it at the Long Beach Comic Con. I thought it would be Qualified, + I didn't want to pay that much $$$$$$ for it. The fact that it would be SS & only the first ten were signed "With Great Power..." was pointed out to me at Austin and I will always be in that person's debt.
  7. Just Graded!!! 001 Ultimate Spider-Man 1 11/11 Marvel Comics Signed Edition Signature 9.8 WHITE SIGNED & ""WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!"" BY STAN LEE ON 8/18/11 (CGC NUMBERED ""9/100"") Poly-bag removed. Ultimate Spider-Man 1 Signed Edition CGC 9.8 SS Signed by Stan Lee with the added "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility!" First new Black/African American (for you PC folk) Spider-Man! The book is numbered #9 of 100. This is the SIGNED EDITION! Only 100 produced and signed by Stan Lee in his offices in the presence of Joe Pierson of CGC. These 100 copies were then put back into circulation with the regular print run and polybagged. They have slightly different front cover (Says Variant + is lighter), and if I recall a completely different back cover (COA actually printed on back). Another regular cover was actually wrapped around the book before it was polybagged so someone couldn't see that it was the signed edition. I forgot to take a pic before I subbed to CGC at WW Austin where I found the book. Only the first 10 of 100 were signed "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility". For more information on the rarity of this book check this CGC News Article: http://www.cgccomics.com/news/viewarticle.aspx?IDArticle=2355&Ultimate-Comics-Spider-Man-#1 At this time I'm aware of only 4 of the 10 being found. I've been told 2 others were recently graded 9.6 by CGC, and a raw VF+ copy sold on eBay for $1400 last month. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ultimate-Comics-Spider-man-1-Stan-Lee-Signed-/140617049725?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item20bd6de67d I'm asking $5000 shipped, and the book is currently on hold until I hear back from my two Ultimate Spider-Man 9.8 pre-screen subscribers (they have dibs). Serious inquiries only. If the book doesn't sell I will just hold onto it. SOLD!!!
  8. Where'd you come up with the time to make that list Jeff? Yeesh Looks like there are a bunch of TPBs in there. I hate TPBs in the registry.
  9. Thanks for the report Mike. I put everything in Gerber MyLite 2, but I use both Half-Backs and Bill Cole Thin-X-Tenders for backing boards. Glad to see they both passed with flying colors.
  10. I love baiting you guys. Once grades are final I'll let everyone know what I've got.
  11. Is WD 34 second print a tough book to find in grade? And are 9.9s common or hard for the Walking Dead run? I just got my first batch of WDs graded...
  12. Toughest books for me in my X-Men collection so far: X-Men 297 Pressman Gold: X-Men 268 Second Print (JC Penney)
  13. Since you were there both of mine came back SS CGC 9.8 as well. (thumbs u Do I get a comission then?
  14. Got this today, seems to be a hot Modern at the moment:
  15. Send me that 9.9 Thunderbolts back then
  16. Since everyone else is doing it... Please post KUDOs here for the following types of transactions: 9.8 CGC Pre-screen submission service sales Raw book sales Slab sales
  17. My current listings, almost 200 CGC 9.8 for sale. http://shop.ebay.com/venicedre/m.html?_trkparms=65%253A10%257C66%253A2%257C39%253A1&rt=nc&_ipg=200&_sc=1&_sticky=1&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_sop=15&_sc=1
  18. He had it 30 minutes ago, now it's gone. I know that book, before people go jumping to conclusions on who the seller was....that book traded hands between board members. He said the seller was a board member.
  19. I say collect whatever makes you happy but unless there's particular Modern with a production flaw there should be no reason to have to settle for a 9.6. There is a difference between a 9.6 & 9.8. I personally only have 3 Moderns that are less than 9.8, 1 is a highest census 9.6 variant, another 9.6 that is a tough book, and a 9.4 of a variant that has only 1 9.6 in the census. I submit upward of 300 Moderns every month... They all go in as 9.8 pre-screens. No one wants a 9.6 from me.
