  1. Whenever I'm at the Amsterdam office ( and that is pretty much once every 2 months ) , I never am without at least one go at the junk food. Truly lekker
  2. And for 50 years comic book collecting has survived and is doing well. You believe the comic book market has been healthy and vibrant for the last 50 years ?
  3. Cause a generational changeover happens every 10 years
  4. One collector he has the right to do what he wants. Maybe he loves the intense passion felling then once that is gone let's go and moves on nothing wrong with that it happens every day in peoples lives. Riiiight. A true collector like so many ... dropping major coin on big ticket items. They're in it for the long run. Absolutely.
  5. You just contradicted yourself he flipped it for another so he did stick with AF15. Not at all. He likely went on to the next flip, be that whatever item it may be. ( certainly not an AF15 as there have been no sales in 9.4+ )
  6. Yup. He loved (really he did) it for about a year or so. Then as the relationship went sour, flipped it for perhaps another. True love endures not forever.
  7. This is an extremely well-reasoned argument. Thank you for posting. You're new to the boards. You'll get used to it.
  8. Congrats ! The 27 2.5 would have cost you a wee bit more than last night's 7.0, at least 3 X more.
  9. I'd ask for the platinum variant while your at it.
  10. CPR unlikely based on grader notes When I saw it listed I immediately thought of you as it is right up your alley (overall eye appeal, grade, etc).
  11. Hey thanks for the explanation. Quite honestly I don't care for HRN number, just looking to have a complete collection in relatively nice shape. Again, no intent to slab. For reading and enjoyment only.
  12. I would buy the whole collection if they are indeed in nice shape and if the price is right. Don't mind doubles. The collection I bought had several doubles, even triples. The vast majority of the collection has 15c covers but there are a handful of 25c covers in there also. I bought the collection for my daughters to read and enjoy.
  13. The "f**k off" game last for days, sometimes weeks.
  14. Get in line pal There's already six or seven of us.
  15. Substitute the a with an i and...... and there's always the newspaper if you take it up a notch
  16. If you used the actual name for the other company, your post was blocked until approved by a mod. A new policy they enacted a few months ago. not if you type in lower case, like so ... cbcs The stuff I know.
  17. Pass on his AF and buy the newspaper, it's worth more.
  18. Obviously CGC "qualified" those books back when you worked there. Those are all very old label examples. They label them differently now. How would you guys at the other grading service label those books? Do y'all even make a distinction between Conserved and Restored?
