Heritage's Next Event Auction has started posting books !
kimik replied to Gotham Kid's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
I received an e-mail, but not sure if they called the home line or not. They are looking for consignment items. My guess is that with the press/slab/flip game being slowed due to a lack of conventions, and collectors holding off due to worries about prices dropping due to COVID-19, it is tough to line up auction items now. I will say that while last month was hit or miss for my auctions on CLink, this month is doing very well with a number of new GPA highs. -
Very cool!

Will CGC Honor CBCS Verified Signatures?
kimik replied to Matthew_S's topic in Newbie Comic Collecting Questions
How much of a price discount is there on CBCS books. Is it still in the 20% range compared to CGC books in same grade and page quality like it used to be? -

Has CBCS's grading improved at all with the relaunch? -

That sucks but is not unexpected. At a certain point they will not be able to bring in guests or find alternate dates for it. We will have to look to next year then. I wonder if the Edmonton Expo will be cancelled?

Here is my current copy with the Tattooz insert and sample. Every Canadian copy I have owned over the years has had them. -
I am glad I was able to trade my B&B #28 CGC 6.0 for a number of Marvel SA and BA keys to a dealer two and a bit years ago. At these prices I am almost tempted to buy again, but if you are chasing DC now, then go for the Batman SA keys instead.

If it is late summer then you may as well stay and hit the Edmonton Expo a week later.

Can Comic Books Survive the Coronavirus Era?
kimik replied to Stefanomjr's topic in Original Comic Art
Talking to a couple of LCS owners here, most stores that depend on weekly single issue sales and gaming are in trouble. One that has added a significant amount of TPBs and youth comic-related items (DC and Marvel kids lines, as well as some other stuff) is doing well. Weekly single issue sales are down, but TPB and the youth books sales are up. They are doing curbside transactions since the store is technically closed (non-essential business). Parents are buying books for their kids, and collectors are reading more now, which is helping drive other sales. -
Copper/Modern Keys & Canadian Newsstand variants

I am going to close this thread for now and reopen it when a new group of books arrives from CGC next week. -
Remember the 80s? What was the best MARVEL mini Series?
kimik replied to I am not Glenda's topic in Copper Age Comic Books
I had the main Joes and Transformers titles at the time, and I can see how it would have been tough to follow without it. I just loved the fact that they had the two most popular franchises of my childhood at the time together in one book. The story is probably weak now, but at the time I thought it was awesome. Unfortunately both titles started to go downhill shortly after that. -

For every kid that grew up with the toys and cartoons, GI Joe vs Transformers was a must have when it came out.
