Turtle

I'll be trying to hold my first real sale on the boards tonight. I'll have Signature Series stuff (modern and otherwise), Mid-grade ASM, and some low grade Silver Age keys like X-men 1 and Daredevil 1. Stop by and at least post a Graemlin so I don't feel like a complete loser.

My max bid was MUCH higher than what I actually paid for it...I was very pleasantly surprised to win it for the amount I got it for. I just didn't want to miss out on a chance to get a graded Turner sketch.

Just came in. I hope I didn't outbid a fellow boardie.

Just put a new post up in the "Just Back From the CGC thread". Check it out. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2824532#Post2824532

My first SS submission just came in today, so before I go to the airport, I thought I'd post my new slabs. Only 6, but I'm excited nonetheless. All moderns, so don't set your expectations too high. First off, the minor surprise: I had another copy like this that he signed and I didn't have graded. It wasn't until I got it home that I noticed the ding on the LLC. It's more severe on the graded one, but it's still tough to see on the all-white cover. On the label, it says "John Cassaday Cover". Did they do this because he sketched on it? Displays really well, and very cool to me. It was my girlfriend's and my first convention, first comic signing, and first submission. I gave her this book to have Cassaday sign it however she wanted (she got the above sketch, too.) This is what she got. I told here she should try to get the artist's phone number next time... Lone Ranger #1, Virgin Variant Mighty Avengers #1 1:100 variant by Frank Cho, guessed it would get a 9.6, guessed right. Astonishing X-men #1 by Cassaday What If Civil War 1:100 variant (What If fan, here!) Only SS on Census (until the census updates, anyway). Djurdjevic is listed on the cover, but not on the label. Anyone know why? I need a new scanner!

Got a phone call from UPS today! My first batch of submissions is scheduled to arrive on Wednesday... sometime between 9am and 7pm... I hope they arrive before I leave for my 5pm flight!

Kudos to Steve Borock for the ToS #39. Thanks!

Another new guy question. Are there any witnesses that live in/near the Manhattan area that can help me out? I want to get a commission witnessed in that area. A witness who will also be attending WWLA in March would be a definite plus, but not a necessity. PM or post...and as always, if this thread is in the wrong place or there's already an established list of witnesses, feel free to point it out. Thanks!

Kudos to Daniel (Par2ch) for making my first trade on these boards a successful one.

KUDOS to ROBBIEC for getting my affordable copy of Daredevil 1 safely to my doorstep. Thanks again!

Hey AlphaTrion, that book looks awfully familiar... I wouldn't mind parting with it, but I don't know what a fair price would be. PM me with an offer if anyone's interested.
