Didn't see your post before I posted, so I won't belabor the point more than to mention that in situations like this the Boards have been extraordinarily effective of demonstrating the consequence of aberrant behavior and pointing towards the straight and narrow. 

that sounds vaguely threatening.  Please don't lose your head in all the excitement.  I'm not trying to build a rep as top tier comics dealer here.  I'm just trying to get a fair value for a book that I purchased as a kid and held onto for 30 years, and I'm so happy to find out that it's going to make some collector extremely happy.  Let's find that person.

Have you thought about bundling the Legos with them for an additional 5k?

Off-topic, but the legos sold already.

How about "this person will cancel a sale if he thinks he get a little more scratch out of someone else."

Or "Caveat Emptor, because this person may use your "purchase" to leverage other buyers."

Or this person is a sketchy douchesleeve

Wow you guys are feisty!  Love the energy.

So, you canceled an order because the price you were asking was too low.

Why should we trust you, even if we pay your new asking price?

I wish the worst thing I'd ever done was cancel an ebay order that I had seriously mispriced (within 10 minutes mind you) on a literally one-of-a-kind item!   Think what you will of me.

Of course, you are right.  I did think about it, and I was like wanting to encourage people to go check out that thread.  But when you're right, you're right and I'm wrong!

Probably should also mention that the backing board has a bend to it.  I'll add a picture of laying 'flat'.

I'm asking $10,000, but I imagine I'll end up taking a best offer considerably lower.  At any rate, first one to 'take it' at $10,000 gets it, if it happens that way.

I'm pretty flexible on shipping, except I will insist on shipping overnight, insured, and signature confirmation. North American addresses only please (I'm sorry far-away friends, it's just logistics.)

I'm also flexible on payment options, but paypal G&S would be ideal, I think.

Did I leave anything out?  There are pics over on the DC Universe variants mega-thread.  It's a sealed multi-pack with Aquaman #2 and STEEL #7 (both bearing the DC Universe logo in place of the UPC barcode), that I bought when I was a kid and kept in the closet... Until now!  I only have 1, apparently that's more than anyone else has though!

If I don't find a buyer here by Wednesday 8/16/23, I'll take it down and list it elsewhere.  I'll announce where on the sales forums if that happens.

Once the buyer accepts delivery, the sale is final.  (i.e. no returns)

Thank you revat!

What I'm dying to know is... does this get added to the list of known variants now?

I have a copy of Aquaman #2 in a sealed package with a copy of STEEL #7.  I also want to sell it.
