  1. You hope the Canes jump out to a 10-0 lead? Or you hope the Gators can pull off a come-from-behind victory over an unranked team? they are ranked in at least one poll
  2. really? 7 hrs before kickoff? Hope it is a good game. I "guess" canes will jump out to 10-0 lead before we grind out a 28-24 victory. At least that's what I hope.
  3. win or lose, I might consider baltimore next year! (highly unlikely gators will lose to miami, but anything is possible in college football)...
  4. why , easily the Gator's Jeff Driskel of course.... though, can't deny the FSU freshman had the best "week" performance in the state of Florida this first game (thumbs u
  5. my guess is anyone can find a small sampling of books that correspond to overstreet...and, as sqeggs mentioned) since many GA sals are raw, and to "older" collectors, OSPG does have "more" relevance when it comes to pricing and realized prices... that said, from what I have tracked, OSPG on "main" titles (such as any superhero timely or dc) is often times as much as 25-500% off on average... I would venture to say that OSPG is wrong on every single All Star, every single Captain America, etc, etc... in every grade...just a reality of the medium
  6. there is always some value (thumbs u
  7. Flex has a nice response. Increased demand (due to a myriad of reasons) is what is driving many prices up lately. It will flatten out at some point...the unknown being "when"
  8. its off because a once a year guide can't possibly capture today's market dynamic....but it is 40+ years of history and is a great reference so still used by many
  9. gpa is often cited but in many instances is no more accurate than ospg Gpa captures , for the most part, auction sales (and not all major houses like comic link)...auction sales represent, for the majority of books, a less than retail market (after all if a seller could get full retail for a book, why would they auction and pay the vig). So while gpa does reflect pricing trends in many cases, it too is not really an accurate indicator of many "current" prices on in demand books
  10. It is bobs price guide and truly has not reflected the market in many many years...a once a year guide cannot possibly reflect the dynamics of today's "instant" market. It is just not logistically feasible
  11. I buy and sell dozens of af15s every year (thumbs u
  12. Email the pic from your iPhone to a computer and then create a photobucket account and follow the simple upload procedure (thumbs u even easier--download the photobucket app to ur iPhone and grab pics from your iPhone library to load to photobucket--then transfer from photobucket to a thread. Even easier

  14. I have a customer that has a 7.0 copy he would entertain selling. I know....we discussed this last page I was hoping you would sent me more info by PM as previously requested Sir! Thanks! (thumbs u I no longer have the book but if you want me to forward an offer shoot it to me (via pm or here) (thumbs u
  15. I remember verzyl telling me about the "split", so I extrapolated and erroneously remembered as a spine split from pressing, versus a split within the slab... I was close
  16. 9.2 to 7.5 slide? Bad press damage? What happened? bad press that split spine a bit [font:Times New Roman]Nope. I've never owned that book, but I was offered it. I'll PM you & Jimbo with the details. Trust me, the damage wasn't due to mishandling or a bad crack & press job.[/font] I though that's what verzyl told me...I must be confused

  18. The top 3 are superman 76, worlds finest 71 and all star 36, IMO. Though all three are already cool books with decent to good demand (thumbs u Dear Gator, What would you say is a good price for a World's Finest 71 CGC 4.0 right now with Cm/OW pages Thanks NB I bought a cgc 4.0 recently. Just got back from Tampa con and books are still packed up so I don't recall off top of head the cost/retail but I will check sooner or later (thumbs u Thanks man let me know when you can in the $500 range is reasonable
  19. it's actually one of the more common catman issues. I'm sure there is a higher grade out there but still probably not a "nice" as the MH copy
  20. sweet book man!!!! now I am not one to answer GA questions but this has always intrigued me as well so I would like to chime in...shouldnt this have to do with the speed force, "aura" that surrounds him, hence why he or anyone he might be carrying doesnt get injured while running at such high velocities. Maybe this same aura helps him keep his sweet hat on too!!! I could be wrong hence why you probably asked THE MAN, and not me!!! take it away G.A.tor seriously though, sweet book (thumbs u that would be a reasonable answer
  21. 9.2 to 7.5 slide? Bad press damage? What happened? bad press that split spine a bit
  22. never having been a hg collector doesn't apply to me directly but general advice is with ga a shg might in fact be the only copy one ever runs across. So you must ask yourself how bad you want it? Do you need the money? Etc etc. just too many variables without Knowing specifics! I know this is Gator's advice thread, but I'll pitch in unsolicited and add this. if you copy is the single highest graded and you would be happy with one not as high, then sell. Once another copy joins yours at the top you could potentially have lost money SA will more than likely eventually find another equal grade....gold, depending on book, might not be another...evah....that's why more info is needed to make a decision.... easy for me....sell and buy lower grade copy....but, we are all different with different collecting criteria.... so one size can't fit all
