  1. Avast, Black Walter! When Susan C first promoted resto (remember the pics of Showcase #4 before and after?) it seemed as if it was really going to take hold in a positive way. But I think others far less skilled than Susan started to give it a bad name. I saw covers glued to spines as 'restored NM', bleed through and much else besides it would have been better not to do. But as comics age, and prices spiral ever higher, it isnt difficult for me to imagine that it will become - not just acceptable but - the norm. And I was actually thinking, like Sha, that this auction made it alright to think resto once again. 'If it was good enough for Jon Berk' will enter the lexicon.
  2. One of my best experiences on these boards happened when I bought G.A.tor's Catman run, which he understandably didn't want to break up. He even helped me sell the ones I didn't keep, and I'm certain he helped me get way better prices on some of those via his contacts. Honest, reliable, warm hearted and generous.
  3. That's perfectly okay, as long as it is done honestly!
  4. I've had fun tracking various books. Four Favorites #10 9.0 $14,017 surprised me, though it is a very scarce book. The Daredevil #11 went for $2847 - heavy, considering it was only a VG.
  5. Yesterday the wisest man holding a lit lantern in daylight was searching around town saying I am tired of all these beasts and brutes I seek a true human We have all looked for one but no one could be found they said Yes he replied but my search is for the one who cannot be found
  6. That seems reasonable. I tell my apartment everything I do as well.
  7. Who's talking about bidding? I was talking about gluing. Oh, I forgot to say, this is nonsense Tuesday.
  8. Anybody here who dares to outbid our Sha on this 'un will answer to me G.A.tor.
