  1. Same as you, low grade is fine but an incomplete book is just inacceptable... id prefer 100× a ripped cover but a complete book rather than the contrary. I have maybe another option but i have any idea of Marvel books value so... What about selling your book and buy a complete one with the funds? How much could be the additional money in the process? Because if its a reasonable ammount that s probably the best way.
  2. Honneslty excuse me but this topic drifted for a while now so you will not be irritated if i continue in this way... So after months of investigation i still dont get something... why would you overpaid books... just why? I mean at best you could hope to get your books for 5× the market value with MHC, so, just WHY?
  3. Yes we already had a disscusion on MHC in another thread and unfortunately it seems to be the common opinion about MHC...
  4. Is that mean fair condition? So really low grade? Im right? Im confused because i always tought the letters used for fair was FR...
  5. Yes it s a call for help... i want to speak to a psychologist of comics
  6. Men... i tought to have removed my f*cking ocd but i was wrong, something i realize now is that im really more concerned by defect on moderns comparated to older books... God... nobody have tips to save me, its really painfull, everytime i see some defect i want to get a new copy of the book... Maybe we re expecting to much on modern, yeah its easy to get a book who look like mint, but i mean, it s not a reason to need it... I wish so much to could be easier on these things...
  7. Huh... did i missed something? I mean its obviously the most valueless part of the whole batman modern run (400-700~) there is not even 1 issue over 10$, dont speak me about 497 LOL... 95% of this stuff is in the dollar bins... I often follow the neatstuffcollectibles.com auctions, it comforts me in the fact that the seller reputation is a great factor on the price that people are ready to pay for books...
  8. For DC it worked, it worked truely! For Marvel... no comment.
  9. An usual announce on a Swiss website... the guy put them on auction for 65 dollars starting bid or buy it now for 90 dollars, we re talking about a lot of 6 freaking 90s flash issues... i mean i almost got the complet run including most of the keys books + a great ammount on international shipping fees and im still under 3 per books... in US all that stuff is findable in every dollar bins... But finally its honnest considering that the postage is ONLY 25... (In Switzerland the shipping cost for a package under 22lbs is 12 dollars)
  10. Is it a serious question? DC, lol.
  11. Thanks! In fact i firstly tought to you when made this thread, your profil picture was in my mind
  12. For a while now i got some interest for this amazing serie who run since the 40s, interested to know the option of peoples who followed the publications for years. Few question below, do not need to answer them all, its just some exemples... Are the stories are often just some reprint of old tales? They re seems to be a lot of contents with frequently several stories in a book so im not really sure that you get often some new stuff... Are the plots varied or you r often bored by the ressemblance of the stories? Is there a continuity or not? When you started into it? and are the comics changed a lot since this time? Thanks
  13. Im interested to know more about what you said it starting to heat up? I not really following the spec market or something so i not hearded about like the Bronze increasment...
  14. Your message conforts me to go with the first guy i disscussed with, thats a really nice lot which is covering almost the whole bronze age of the serie, this is not some high grade stuff but anyway hich grade its not what im looking for, and the price is really good i think.
  15. I d never really have some reason to explain it... Maybe because is Mute... or rather "intentionally" mute
  16. Interesting to mention the condition, honnestly i think i will not like to get my serie in the highest grade because after got it i will probably never be satisfied again by any of my next purchase... however if you told me that you wont spend a dollar in more on comics after this i agree
  17. I dont care of Marvel but... Black Bolt is definitely my favourite charachter!
  18. About that i seen a thread time ago of someone here who have the complete ASC run, really really impressive, all my respect!
  19. 1 and only 1! You will not have the right to sell any of the books, so the monetary angle isnt a thing! Probably many off you will choose a serie that they are already working on but they d think to never be able to finish. Im sure that there is many people here who have some near full run of Spidey or Batman and just need the big one they missed when it was yet in their price range and which is now not anymore And an additional question: would you be ready to get ride of your entire collection to get this run? For me the choice is without hesitation: the original All Star Comics from the 40s. And are i am ready to get ride of all my books for it? In many years maybe i will have took more reflexion but at the time its a great: YES.
  20. Im looking to complete a whole jla vol 1 run, i recently found a really really nice lot which is covering the whole bronze age era, the disscusion is very advanced with the seller and i will probably buy them in the nexts days, however its a totally new things for me, until now i was only collecting modern so im wondering myself "how much is the good ammount to spend on a random book from the bronze age in fine condition?" I have the feelings that we overalluate a bit these books because they re a bit older than the moderns but i think they re still really easy to get comparated to the silver stuffs... how much is the usual price you agree to spend on bronze books? Thanks.
  21. This already explain you why its bad...
