Awesome picture! Wow!
Sadly with one minute left I submitted my max bid which was over double the then current bid. And I lost out in the last 10 seconds to someone else. Astonishing. I thought I had won all the way until the page refreshed once the auction was complete. Jumped over 6 figures in final 10 seconds to beat out my max bid. My nerves were fried.
I’m still hunting.

I’ve got an AC12
And I’m going all in on that Tec 27 to complete my run.

Without seeing it….but, generally, if it was just the covers fully split and detached, that would still be a Fair. If the wraps are also fully split, then that’s in the Poor category for me.
Agreed

You may want to check out this thread. It evolved into a lot of discussion debating the merits of downsizing.
im with you on less is more

Well, I'm still upshifting, but I'd say you've left a very enviable core collection!
p.s. Detective 31, 35 and Action 7 (swoon)
Upshifting was my way for 25 years.

Thanks guys!
I’m trying to remember any regrets I’ve had over the years. Only ones I can remember I sold that I now will never see again are Tec 38 and MF 73. Those burn.
Also had a chance to buy Cap 1 - 15 years ago for 10K. Didn’t do it, giant mistake.

Hello fellow boardies,
I have not posted in a long time and wanted to share this.
After 25 years of collecting.
A lot of changes occurred over this last year, including a move for when I finally decided to sell off the majority of my comic collection. I sold over 4,000 comics, majority of which were collected from the 90’s-10’s new off the rack, and 80’s back issues. Hundreds of which were golden age and silver age mostly raw. I sold most in a bulk sale to one long standing collector/dealer who made the process very easy for me and it worked out for both of us well.
Anyway, I kept the favs/best, from over the years and all I have is roughly 30 left including some raw not pictured. I’ve realized that I will most likely never part with my Pre Robin run and my AF15 filler, that due to price increases, has become my permanent copy. And my sole Action comic, #7!
Has anyone else gone through a downshift in size from your collection over the years / decades?
Pictured is the final entirety of my CGC books.

It is a group
This is the kind of stuff that the show Hoarders is made of
Totally just kidding that is soooo cool what a great book too have always enjoyed the clock tower cover!! Really enjoy the photo they look super neat together like this

Looks like Metro just listed a Tec 31 5.0 and a Tec 33 8.0
Meanwhile the blue label 33, 2.5 looks to have poofed.

Might be transferred to the next CC even auction
Or maybe a boardie bought it
Reveal yourself
Now, that's just being smart by buying at the right time........picking up a book when it's out of favor, as opposed to chasing it when it's red hot and the current flavor of the month.
Congrats and well done!!!
+1
Lower grade 33's almost never come up, and it was especially smart grabbing it before that 6.5 on C-link offically goes on the block.

awesome buy Gotham kid!!!!

Nobody likes shrinkage.
Best,

If you say so... you guys are the experts.
Don't cockle your books.

I have a unrestored/ "conserved" book to sell and only 5 or 6 in the world and it looks just as bad?. Its 10% of the price. That cap would sell better if you sold the real pages/back cover or get a better copy of the front cover sorry but that cover !!!!!!!!
Cool cover on this DAC 1. Was this an ashcan? Real cover?
I don't believe I have ever seen this.
-
I'd probably agree with the list.
No way 27 ever overtakes 1.
May I ask how old you are??
I'm not that old...I hope.
27 has been biting 1's heels for years. And isn't Batman more widely considered the most popular character in the hobby today?
Also, in the 90's, how many years did OSPG rank 27 as the #1 most valuable book?

Thanks Bat-Man! Can't make out the grade for your copy, but yours looks pretty
It's a 0.5, but the numbers are reversed.

Super nice copy !
Holy mama mia! That book has been exchanged around these boards before. I'm glad it is within our inner circle.
And here it will stay. I truly plan on never selling this one. Its been a lifetime goal to obtain a 31 like this. I'm very happy with this 'um
