  1. With 9.8s going for $2,000-$2,500($3200 outlier on cl); getting a 9.6 at 1/4 of the price= good value
  2. Been following ASM 194 cgc 9.6 on heritage for the last 2 auctions. The 10 percent tax has me out of running for both auctions. Pretty big increment when a buyer can win at $510-$520 instead of $560-$570.
  3. A near perfect registration, nicely centered with a nice looking spine seems right to me at $38.4. The 30k and $29k copies were similar with the registration not as nice, spine cut not as nice, therefore we have a premium of $8k eye appeal since we are comparing 9.8s, who sold a 9.8 on oct 19 2018 for $39,000 according to gpa. Would be curious how the spine cut was for that one
  4. 1st 2 pages or 1st 2 wraps unrestored of Captain America comics 1
  5. the nice looking 0.5 that was missing both centerfolds sold for $30k on comclink a few months ago. I could see that copy sell for $50k if the 2 centerfolds were married
  6. 16 and 17 is the centerfold; 15 and 18 is the 2nd centerfold
  7. Bought a few books from Claudio. Shipping from I ltaly to the USA was fast. Package was packed well and secure. Got a freebie in the sales thread and couldn’t be happier
  8. I also have the comiclink 7.5 1071 and 8.0 1072 and raw 1072 coming to me that are not in the picture. regret missing out on the comicconnect 9.0 set during their august auction
  9. When did they start implementing the 3% fee. From my understanding, they only charge 3 percent if you use a credit card to pay for your winnings but they put a limit on how much you can you use your credit card. I don't use a credit card to pay for my winnings so I never pay the 3 percent.
  10. This must be 1960 version, it’s from a USA seller, so no need to worry about translation https://www.ebay.com/itm/SMURFS-1ST-APPEARANCE-1st-COLLECTED-EDITION-1960-JOHAN-MAGIC-FLUTE-RARE-DUPUIS/401652956934?hash=item5d8461bf06:g:1Z4AAOSwHjtb9HRw
  11. Happy to see comiclink offering spirou 1071 cgc 4.0 and spirou 1072 cgc 5.5 in their January auction. 1071 and 1072 had strong results in their November auction. heritage is the only major auction house to not offer these 2 books.
  12. b. Back cover, easily over secondary story
  13. From looking at the 1st page in this silver age forum, we have 28 topics, 11 of which have a "club" as part of the title . The usa market is heavily swayed towards being the big dog or being part of a "club". Been hanging in the AF15 club all these years so been wired to think of catching the big fish. I enjoy the different panels you posted of the smurfs before the big introduction in 1071
  14. Thanks for the sale. Still affordable other than the 9.8s. been trying to build up a new pile recently
  15. Nice 9.6s. Funny this bump in June had a gap of 2 years since the previous post.
