  1. One bump. Auctions end tonight at 9pm central.
  2. Thats a lead. Is there an onsite manager? Log on to your states public Court access website. Run there name through and see what comes up for court cases. Heck run everybody that works there, if something stinks ask a few questions, just polite questions, like Barnaby Jones would. Seems to me you can't just drive onto a storage facility without a reason to be there?? How did they break in, bolt cutters, or??? Did they take everything? Or are they coming back for more. If they are coming back set game camera up (it just snaps photos of movement), hunters use it to scout areas.
  3. Liability of Storage Facility? What do they promise in contract? Video? Best of luck. Crime Never Pays, they will get theirs, just a matter of when.
  4. Ironic but, what ya think a trimmed AF 15 (apparent 9.6) would be worth today?
  5. Hello I have 23 raw books that I am putting up for lot Auctions. I will post the list first along with the opening bids. I cannot do sales to people that have scammed people, so if you are on a list realize you are precluded from purchasing from me. I accept paypal, the regular form of it, no personal paypal as these are sales. Also can accept Venmo, Money Orders, Bank Certified checks. Shipping and insurance is $15 per auction, books will be shipped US Postal Priority with insurance. NOTE - I can ship to United States addresses, shipping out of the USA is too expensive, sorry. On CGC slabbed books, you know exactly what you are buying so I cannot accept returns. On Raw books I will accept a return within 10 days, buyer pays shipping unless I mis-stated something. If you wish to purchase a book, please post a bid in the thread. I would prefer this to PMs, and it seems to work best that way as there can be no dispute who purchased the book that way. I will invoice at end of thread, please pay within 2 days and I will ship promptly. Three separate auctions in this thread; ASM, Mag Lot, Golden Age War Opening bid is $60 for each auction, with $1 increments. BIN for the ASM books is $300 ASM Books: ASM 17, 3.0 CR to OW, small tears outside edge of C, creases MTU 6, 6.5 OWW, small tear edge of C, spine stress ASM 177, 7.0 CR to OW, glossy, ripple LLC, ASM KS 3, 4.5 OWW, small spine split bottom, small tears BC, well read ASM 200, 6.5 OWW, ding bottom, flat glossy ASM 201, 8.0 OWW, printers crease, light finger bends ASM 195, 8.0 OWW, tiny crease LRC, flat glossy ASM 97, 7.0 heavy cream to OW, tanning inside cover, flat moderate gloss BIN for the Mag Lot is $250 Mag Lot Books: Dracula Lives Annual 1, 7.0 W, tear BC near spine about an inch, blue ink over spray on BC and page edges Conan 46, 6.0 CR to OW, partial faint crease C, some wear Marvel Preview 8, 7.5 CR to OW, sun shadow BC faint, spine wear, ding ULC Marvel Preview 3, 7.5, spine tics, light wear Eerie 31, 3.0 CR to OW, several small pieces of tape on book Haunt Of Horror 2, 8.5 OWW Marvel Super Action 1, 7.5 CR to OW, spine tics Vampire Tales 3, 4.5 CR, tanning inside covers, chip out of BC Haunt of Horror 12, 8.0 OWW, small tear LRC Vampirella 76, 8.5 OWW (hint of cream on last page), spine tics, faint fingerprint BC BIN for the War Books is $400 War Books: United States Marines NN, CR to OW, spine split .5 inch bottom, faint dust shadow This IS War 9, 3.0 CR to OW, tanning inside covers, two tears cover edge, crease BC, spine split 1.25 inches top Black Hawk 80, 2.5 OWW, small tears C, interior page detached ripped off but still inside book, Black Hawk 23, 5.0 OWW, small tear LLC, faint sub like crease, few faint brown areas War Adventures 8, 4.0 Light Cream to OW, chip LRC possible from production, slight tanning inside covers If you place a bid you will need to indicate which lot you are bidding on; for example "$225 Mag Lot". If you do not specify which lot you are bidding on then the bid WILL NOT COUNT, sorry but it has to be clear what you are bidding on. Auction ends at Monday the 6th at 9pm Central time sharp. Any bid on or after 9pm Central time does not count. This is determined by hovering over the time stamp at the end of the auction, it clearly shows the exact minute of the post and thus if a post is too late.

I can see the edge of the pages and they are white. I can mostly inspect the Batman and Superboy books, I see no flaws with the books but I am hesitant to declare them as 9.8s without being able to hold them in hand. I feel very confidant all three books are 9.4+. The middle book all I can make out is "Brave" and under it "Batman". If somebody knows what issue of Brave and the Bold came in this 3 pack please post that info. If you place a bid you will need to indicate which lot you are bidding on; for example "$225 FF".

I also have a group lot of RAW asm spider-man I may list as a regular sale.

  12. Such tough times. I hope that stimulus bill does a lot to help small businesses, which comic stores are. Heard some good things about loan forgiveness available in it if funds are used to pay employees and rent and such. Love the idea of a few comic deliveries. I know would not amount to big money, but I bet some people stuck at home would really like the books too. Keeping faith, there are a lot of very smart people working on this, hearing some real positive ideas on mitigating treatments that will make this far less lethal.
