    No question. If I find one 'albatross' a year I feel lucky.

    It's what makes them fascinating to collect. Of course, #5 is one of the rarest issues, so the challenge is even more extreme! As close as I will ever get to extreme ironing!

    I actually thought #18 was the bigger gamble than #5, though by far the one I really wanted. The Planet #18 did turn out as well as I'd hoped, if not better, so I'm very happy about that. So I'm philosophical - I got the one I really wanted. Colors on #5 are normally pale orange background - this one is deeper orange than the average copy. But red is the color for me.

    After chewing it over for a while, I've decided to flip the Planet #5 I won from the recent Jon Berk Auction. https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/topic/418676-planet-comics-5-jon-berk-copy/

    Not being a completist, I've decided to flip this recent win, as the colors arent quite what I was expecting. You can see the colors are deeper than average, from my pic below just not as deep as I wanted. (Not a great pic I know, but I can get a better one up on Monday if need be.) However, you can see CC's scans in the listing here: http://www.comicconnect.com/bookDetail.php?id=716676 So for me the search goes on. Asking $1650, which is what I paid. Read this first: wins over pm's. Payment terms PayPal, (or cheque in the UK only). Shipping I am based in the United Kingdom.. Expedited shipping from UK to US will be $30. I pack books very carefully. No HOSers, probies or trolls allowed!

    One of my all time favorite stories. Does anyone know if it has ever been reprinted anywhere?

    That's what I thought. Random.

    I wonder why mine came before yours?

    On reflection, I find that I dont regret the major departures - it was always for a good reason. But looking back there are regrets regarding specific books that were not high value, but where in retrospect I made an impulsive error. Selling a hi grade Venus #19? No regrets, got top price at the time, money put to good use. But a Planet #35 in 6.0 with gorgeous colors for a few hundred bucks? Man, that still really smarts years later. I'm still looking for that elusive 'upgrade' I now realize I might never find.
