  1. It's shaping up to be a good show, I'm looking forward to it! Make sure you stop by our booth and say hi!
  2. It wasn't Duncanville, it was one of the out of town dealers that set up at North Texas. Nice guys, I've known them a while and they knew what it was, but because of the defects they didn't think it was particularly valuable. I figured that even in this shape it was worth picking up.
  3. Pulled it out of a box at a show, very surprised to find it.
  4. Found this one over the weekend. Seriously low grade, but I'm still .
  5. Please let me know. I’d like to get at least one Roy Thomas, maybe more, and possibly a few to several others. Thanks!
  6. Tremendous show as usual, though I’m dragging a bit this morning after the late return. Outstanding guest list! Every time I think the guest list has peaked Chris pulls another brilliant guest list. Only made one purchase over the weekend, but it was a piece from Bob Layton. Always wanted one and I’m thrilled to finally add his Iron Man to the collection. Great to see everyone who stopped by the table, and everyone who made purchases (thanks again @spideyfan68!). Looking forward to Dallas Fan Expo and the next North Texas!
  7. Historically it has always been an excellent buying show. I’m hoping I may sneak up for Thursday only, will have to see.
  8. Just one book today, one I've owned probably 30 years but recently had graded so I could sell it. While I once had the #1-72 run nearly complete I've gradually sold all the others off except for the #1-2 (the #2 is currently on eBay, it is an 8.5). If you'd be interested in a package deal I would be open to negotiating that and removing that book from eBay. I accept checks, money orders, and Paypal. Shipping is included in the asking price, with a $10 credit towards international shipping (buyer pays anything above $10 US). Returns are begrudgingly accepted, but since this is a graded book there would need to be a pretty good reason. If you are in the Dallas area I will be at North Texas Comic Con next weekend and the book can be picked up there in person (cash is much appreciated if we do a hand off at the show, and would also bring a $10 discount because shipping is not needed). Offers are always welcome. Please ask any questions you may have before buying. in the thread or via PM is preferred and will trump any unconsummated negotiations. I will do my best to determine the winner in the event of a near tie between the thread and PM, but if it is close my inclination is to favor the thread . Asking price was $495, now $469 shipped in the US. Recent GPA is provided below.
  9. Yep. Aiming for 6.0 or better, but for a lot of books that is obviously not feasible.
  10. Thanks, it is more a matter of focus. I am gunning to complete pre-hero JIM, but picking up other (admittedly sweet) books like Venus #18 or other pre-code Atlas doesn't help me on that goal. Only so much budget to go around...
  11. All is well here, thanks. Just trying to recover from a particularly spendy 2019 and be a little better about what I'm buying.
  12. This is the longest I've gone in a while without making a purchase (~57 days), so I guess my discipline is working a bit. This book made me cave though.
  13. Last I checked the posted TATs are 28 days for Value FT and 30 days for Modern. These subs were literally shipped in the same box.
  14. Hoping this moves along. I’m waiting on my McFarlane books plus four other subs that aren’t moving...
  15. One of these years I’d love to head up for this show but the timing is always bad. If they continue their trend of moving the show earlier maybe one year it’ll fall between Christmas and New Year and I’ll be free to travel...
  16. Just noticed there are only six shows scheduled for Wizard in 2020, with New Orleans already done. Quite a change from their past schedules.
