Amazing additions to an already incredible collection! Love those pedigrees. Congrats on a productive 2017 and hoping 2018 brings even more EC upgrades (so I can snag more undercopies) your way, Ed!

I'm trying to figure out how he accumulates so much change every year.

Just imagine how high the total would have been if he lived north of the border and those buckets were stuffed with loonies and toonies!

Thanks for the contest Dr. X and Happy Holidays to all!

$1124.67 

My personal favorite!

A recent pickup, and one of my favorite Bronze Age Horror covers!

Don't think Bill Gaines ever owned this one, but I'm thrilled to add it to my ECs. Only need HOF 22 & 24 to complete my Ingels HOF run!

I'll show a comic ad for an old toy.  First person to show an image and states ownership wins.

Doesn't have to be boxed or Mint on Card but should be 99% complete.

Honor code, people.

Start off easy.  Any of the Evel Knievel sets

I think I was the only kid in my neighborhood not to own the stunt cycle set...and it was my fault. Like every kid back then, the Evel Knievel toy was at the top of my Xmas list and when I was taken to see Santa (I was probably seven?) I made sure to let him know it was what I wanted more than anything. But when my mom got me home and asked me what I wanted for Xmas I told her something completely different. I figured I didn't need to tell her about the stunt cycle set - I'd already told Santa. Heck, I didn't need two of them...  

Struck out on both comics I swung at 

I didn't even like his stuff from the 80s

Not nearly for value, and price paid.

I believe  $100 is the default insurance for Priority. You were definitely waaaaaay overcharged for shipping. Nice mag though!

Not my comic (unfortunately) but one of my favorite Wrightson covers (along with HOM 204)!

I love all of the 20 cent Weird War covers, with this being one of my favorites! Fantastic stack of comics!

I remember buying 2 of those when I saw them on the comic book rack at the corner drug store.  One to read and one to collect.  I was 7, and Spidey was on the cover!  Ah, the good old days.

When I was seven I would have never thought to have bought a second copy, but always made sure to write my name in large block letters across the front cover to make sure none of my siblings tried to claim my comic as their own! Ah, the good old days...

Can't argue with the Juggernaut but #14 (1st Sentinels) and #18 (tough black awesome Magneto cover) would also be on my radar

The first appearance of the Losers helps start the "Bronze Age of War." Bought this raw copy years ago. Another great Kubert cover...

 

1st Losers!? This comic is a winner and at the top of my BA War want list!

Hi all, here's an auction I have running on Mycomicshop this week:

MARCH OF CRIME, FOX GIANT 1948. Incredibly tough Fox book with a crazy 'bad girl with gun' cover...and man, is she pissed! Book contains four remaindered comics including Zoot, Jo-Jo and crime comics -- better than average interiors with plenty of GGA. My grade was a very solid VG-, but MCS calls it Good+. Supple OW/W pages. No HA sales in 8 years, and no GPA sales ever!

AUCTION LINK

$1 start, no reserve -- ends Monday night, November 20th. Good luck and thanks for looking!

Jon

 

 

MCS Grading is always tight - if they are calling it Good+ i'd consider it VG at a minimum. Good luck with the auction!

There was some stiff competition on the Dave Stevens books. I think it's time for me to take a break. 

I was the stiff competition on at least one of these books (and had a hunch you were one of the bidders), so word of your taking a break is welcome news!

And big congrats on the WoW #1 - one of my favorite Dave Stevens covers

Batman #235 CGC Universal 8.0 OW/W pages - $150

Has a razor thin crease on the back cover upper left corner...have to inspect very closely to see it (got past me).  So technically an 8.0, but has the look of a 9.6

  per PM!

How well was the comic packed for shipping? Corner bangs like that are common for poorly packaged comics that slide back and forth during shipment. Maybe it started out as a 9.4? 

Will there be any Losers in this thread?

This is the same seller who was reselling ECs with original mailer envelopes - but destroyed the envelopes by whiting out the names

These were basically $9.99 each so I had to grab them:

Great deal, and I love this cover!

Realize that by having such a low tier of 3K, it automatically puts Heritage out of the running.  Folks don't list low priced books on Heritage. I'm sorry, I just don't think this poll is going to prove anything. Let's say Comiclink wins, what do you extract from that ? Does it mean Comiclink is the best auction house ? I think Heritage fans would challenge that. I noticed the poll does not have much participation either. With so little data, I don't see the results being pertinent at all. Sorry. I applaud the attempt but I don't think it's working.

I wasn't hoping to prove anything with this poll, just hoping to get some simple feedback on boardies' preferred auction house when selling their comics (this wasn't meant to be a poll to determine the best auction house) in case I decide to send any of my own slabs to auction (none of them worth more than $3k).

I thought the anonymity of a poll might get more feedback than just asking the question, and hoped a few participants might opt to share the reasons for their preference (customer service, results, etc).

But you're right - it didn't work.
