  1. Another Robojo ''9.4'' bought a couple of years ago, he did mention the trim & coulor touch but not the glue. I had to send it in just to see how it would come back, live & learn...
  2. My NYCC submissions came back with an unexpected surprise... Can you guess which one?...
  3. Why can't I find TPB 6 when there is a TPB 7-8-9 already pre-listed on Amazon?... Did I miss something??
  4. I never cease to be amazed by your awesome books!
  5. Very tempted... is shipping included to Canada? (Argh I gotta stop doing this to my bank account...)
  6. If there is value it will usually be temporary until the next printing... Vol 4 of Bendis' Alias comes to mind, it was unfindable and sold at ridiculous prices. Then it was reprinted and you can now buy it anywhere for under 10 bucks. I doubt those 1st prints are really worth anything anymore.
  7. Welcome to the Boards! It's all relative to what you want vs what you can afford vs what your plans for the book are in the future. Reader: get the lowest grade and read away to your heart's contentment Invester: Highest grade available for the lowest price, keep and sell high Collector: Highest grade you can afford that you are happy with and cherish it forever.
  8. Thanks for letting me have it without a bidding war (thumbs u
  9. Finally got these in the mail today from CLink's last auction. The #2 is the only 9.8
  10. Big thanks to Danny/MutantKeys for making my first SS experience a memorable one by helping me complete my Bob Layton signed Hercules run!
  11. Best Champions set EVER Well i finally did it, after 2 and a half years of wheeling and dealing I completed the finest set in the world of Marvel's Champions series from the Bronze Age. It feels somewhat bittersweet because this mission has been consuming my collecting for a while and now I don't know what to do next... You can check out the set with descriptions & pics.
  12. YAY i found em all (beat to death) save for 51, is it essential for my reading pleasure?
  13. Well I officially added it to my pull-list... Maybe I'll get lucky at another store
  14. I'm officially sick of waiting for TPs. Why can't I find issuses 49 & up anywhere?? Even eBay (.ca) doesnt have any... Why does my relaxing hobby always have to be so stressful?!
  15. Avengers #4 in "apparent 9.6" up for sale on eBay by everyone's fav whipping boy. Any takers? And I bet it still goes for thousands...
  16. I woulda gotten more. They had a sweet #44 Boston pedigree but it went for way more than I was willing to spend. Patience is a virtue in this hobby of ours.
  17. For the record I hate "no beard" Hercules!!
  18. This just in from ComicLink just missing 43-44-45 to complete my run of Hercules appearances
  19. Picked these up in a Heritage Auction last month, love me some crossovers
  20. Anyone going after the Avengers 4 CGC 8.0 in Quality Comix' auctions?
  21. Not bad, could be better Montreal is not known to be a hotbed of the comic collecting world, in fact I have yet to find a decent store with older books. But when the Con comes to town, the bank account gets drained. Graham Crackers & Harley Yee were the most popular booths since they never come here and have real quality stuff. Found a long sought after Avengers Annual 1 in decent shape (VF+ to NM-) Completed the 2nd Thor & Hercules trilogy with Thor 128-130 (all look VF) Couple more Avengers, a decent 40 & a nice 49. Got a Marvel Premiere 15 in what looks like VF+. Not much in the way of high grade CGC books, a lot of the dealers were complaining of theft (gotta love Montreal!) so the good stuff was probably left behind. Everything else was pretty much an overpriced modern super-rare-ultra-secret-variant-sketch-cover crapfest. Herb Trimpe was there but his seat was empty on artist row for the duration of my stay. Well it ain't the SDCC but it's the best available.
  22. In case you were wondering, i already knew the ASM 14 would be a purple, thought it would grade higher though
