  1. However except this point its a beautiful copy on overall, nice catch I always loved this cover too
  2. Well as i said im not preocuppated by how it looks... its more about if it could spread on the book with the time? Did you seen a difference on your books trough the years? I tought about color rub or something like that caused by the rust...
  3. Flash Pre crisis: Infantino, as much for the early years than the late... Post crisis: Bolland, the man is a beast....
  4. How many of these babes do you think you can handle?
  5. How is that affect the visual of a book? If i remember right it s the kind of diffect who could downgrade the book with age, i say that because people speak of rust migration, so is it to avoid? Will the book is going to rotten with time? Or is it not a terrible thing? I was only buying modern until now so sorry for this newbie question im not used to low grade for the moment...
  6. Really like the concept of Clayface as a wonder woman vilain, knowing that wonder woman born in clay you, you can imagine how dangerous it could be for her...
  7. Thanks for the effort of making this detailed reply! yes i know few of them, prices are really different here, it explain my views of the prices and why people from US often take me for an insufficiently_thoughtful_person on the forum about newsstand higher price... its only a real fact for the moderns, as i know the ratio was at opposite when it started, in the early 80s newsstands were more common than direct.
  8. When i give an ammount in a disscusion its always including the shipping cost, without it the books are under 2 each... And in fact i not totally revealed what i could get... I based the average price on only the issues that im gonna keep for me, but in reality there is 2 point: 1.The run is complete but i collect only Direct edition when i have the choice and DC started to get both editions after JLA 183 (newsies and direct) and in the lot many of the books after this are newsies, is why the lot will not be complete for me... yeah i know it could look like mad... 2. Is there also a tons of duplicates, mostly in the early books. So in reality if i just speak of the price for the overall it comes down to 2.25 per books shipping include. But im not really expect to could succesfully sell these books that im not gonna keep, however even if it took years it could refund a part of the lot... we re talk about 188 books and i will keep 135 of them. So maybe it changes your opinion... And as you said well, many sellers, many shipments... It s always worked for me to buy in bulk for saving money, its really different to live in Europe comparated to US, i dont get some dollar bins here
  9. God i still dont get why i cannot like this...
  10. Born in Switzerland, however from the french part which is known as having a lower level of english, i had english for only 3 years at school and it was not really helping to get suffisant knowledge, and after school my only exposition to this language was to communicate with few friends and read and hear or watching stuffs...
  11. Yes thanks to notify this... Since the first day im here im just a source of boredom for everyone.. My english s****, my questions are stupids, the comics i buy are bad and above all im unfriendly with people who just gave me some advice... i think that the best things i could do would simply be to leave this forum for good.
  12. Tought it was the best place to ask... now i own a JLA #1 for 1 month and i decided to start to complete an entire JLA Run. I completed several entire moderns runs but now its the first time that im gonna make a pre crisis serie. Firstly notice that im relatively poor comparated to some of you in this thread... and i dont care of the grade, I just want to have some copy which look attractive to my eyes and complete, i easily find books in 3 to 4 range who satisfy me. So now my question is that i found someone who own an almost full run from 95 to 261 and i have an agreement with him, i could get all that stuff for 3$ each and considering my location it could be smart to get a great run like that which is not easy when we re not talk about modern books... however i still hesitate for a reason... maybe especially considering my limited budget and the current situation of the market starting to pick up the early stuff could be a better strategy? If i purchase this stuff i wouldn't make any other purchases before like 5 months... and honneslty i look the auction on ebay on i see that at contrary as what some are saying the Bronze books still seems to worth totally nothing, i mean exept if your look for MINT books all this stuff from the 70s often go for ridiculous price of 1 or 2 and i dont really think that it will change in the next 5 or 10 years... what do you think? Look: good exemple, this book is considered as a key and sometimes go for 10 or more but still in a really low market and sometimes just nobody are interested and the book go for starting bid price...
  13. In fact it was rather 2 small piece than 1, and the first time i just get the book out of the sleeve the small piece which had a really loosie tie fall instantly
  14. I love these 2 ones, what is your problem with them? Dont like concept of evil twins?
  15. Do you have at least an idea if you could have a great quantity of the first Justice League of America run? Because its really the serie i will focus on for a while now i think. If yes it will be really nice of your part to check in details.
  16. Well i dont wanted to be hard... its just that the disscusion was not about it at origin, i just wanted to know if peoples here tought it was a good deal or not... Are you just saying that in the wind or you have books for sale? Im always interested
  17. Read my post... "shipping include" However here is the point more the books are old more is difficult to find continuous run is why it still probably a good option for someone with my sh*tty location. And about digital, you have on the pic below your answer... F*** it, this world is already so faked and now you r gonna tell me to read online?! Im now about 7/8 boxes like this and trust me it will never stop to increase!
  18. I want some opinions, until im in the hobby i was only collecting modern and now i decided to com0lete a whole JLA run, this mean that im gonna buy silver and bronze books for the first time... So i have an agreement for an almost complete run (135books) from 95 to 261 or if you prefer 1971 to 1986, the total price with shipping make an average price of 3.1$ dollars per books, however as i seen many of the early issue,like between 95 to 115 ~ are in really low grade and maybe i will need to replace some of them, if i assume to have to replace, lets says, hum... 15 books on the lot it would make an average price of 3.6$. What do you think of that price guys? Thanks for your answers.
