  1. We didn't no that busted... I don't "no" how I made that mistake... Probably because when they asked you to sell you couldn't say "know" Knownsense!
  2. I haven't seen CGC's grader notes, but I doubt that the miswrap came into play. However, I do see moderate tanning to the top and right edges of the front cover, some color flaking along the bottom edge of the front cover, and possibly small horizontal tears at the bottom staple. Then there are the three as yet unseen elements: the back cover, the inside covers (which probably have some degree of tanning), and the interior pages. It's a fine book, for sure. (thumbs u But based on what I've seen so far, I'm not ready to conclude that the Sarasota crew missed the mark. Back cover: [/img] Got the grader notes back the ONLY note is: "Whole book tanning." No tears, no stains, no rust, no crease, no ding dents scrapes or scuffs. Thoughts on a re-sub? I've seen this before - it is quite consistent with CGC grading. I had a Voodoo #19 which looked 9.0 or better in the holder, with blazing colors and 100% gloss, hammered down to 6.5 because interior covers were tanning.
  3. Probably no impact. Stains, staple issues or poor paper quality might. And even tiny corners off or color breaking creases could be hammered on a bad day. Might be worth a resub.

  6. Nice, I have never seen that book before. A very tough series - nice snag Gabe!
  7. Funny coincidence that Richard and I were meeting up in Houston at the same time. I didn't know he'd agreed to offer you the Jumbo #11 until I saw him there. Now all you need is an acre of cleared land and a helicopter-mounted camera for the group shot!
  8. We know you will do your part Gator [font:Times New Roman]This thread needs a ... I think the comic community would benefit from more fine folks like these gentlemen... What do you think? [/font] Mind helping the uninformed as to who these guys are? Two geeks and a nerd Agreed

  12. Adam - you seem to have a gift for turning up really tough books in sweet condition!
  13. You know, I'm not sure I've ever actually seen a copy of that one before. Guess you'll complete the set by tomorrow!
  14. suhweeet--love me some sun girl. Thanks Billy. Kinda sad though that it was apparently damaged during the encapsulation process You can compare the raw scan to the slabbed one and see what I mean That SUCKS! Man, its hard enough getting these things in decent shape and then that has to happen. Incredible how that happens.
  15. I like that cover more than #5 actually! Nice one Billy!
  16. I have all three of them and they're staying put. Innat case I is gonna achieve world domination by collecting every issue of - of Wacky Duck, the well known horror comic! Huh, that'll teach youse.
  17. We're all part of a communist plot You don't want that book. The date stamp is defacing it. Belongs in my collection Okay folks - our mission should we decide to accept it - is to help scrooge find a copy of this book!
