  1. Bats #196? Lovely books though. (thumbs u I keep doing that!
  2. Just my 2 cents, but I learned the lesson the hard way when I was building runs that the best books to buy first are the key/high demand issues as they tend to increase in value more than the common issues. (thumbs u This is true and I've not been resting on my laurels as I my recent purchase was a #181 9.4 (thumbs u My problem is I've been upgrading key issues, such as #232 9.4 > 9.8 as well. But if a certain #227 is still around in say 3 months I might just have one (thumbs u Congrats - nice copy of #181. (thumbs u I would stay away from any of the books in 9.8 for right now as any increase in supply will mean further drops in prices. A nice run in 9.4, or even non-top census 9.6, should be fine and hold its value a bit better. There are just too many potential 9.8 copies of these books in OO collections waiting to surface......... Believe me, over the last 2 years my collecting focus has changed and changed! I believe I am at the final stage in terms of what I collect and in what grade

  4. Already posted in General but I wanted an excuse to post in Golden Its taking its time but my GA Bat collection is starting to take shape. Batman #19 CGC 7.0 Offwhite Pages Batman #64 CGC 8.0 Offwhite to White Pages
  5. Wow.... I didn't even know these variants existed! Very, very cool. #227 I think maybe the book I buy last in the Batman run, that and a #1 The money a #227 currently warrants I have been using to buy up other books in high grade to fill the #200-299 run.
  6. Not "new this week" but first opportunity I've had to load the images up. Batman #19 CGC 7.0 Offwhite Pages Batman #64 CGC 8.0 Offwhite to White Pages Batman #194 CGC 9.6 White Pages
  7. I'll never ever get any money together for the London Con , if you start a sales thread now . What, even after that rollover win?
  8. Today I sold: Batwoman #0 - $17 Batwoman #0 1:10 Variant - $16 I'm happy about that as I continue to trim down my Bat collection. I guess the New 52 of Batwoman sparked interest in the #0 issue that came out months ago.
  9. Has anyone seen the two new ones listed on eBay? CGC 9.4 SS Neal Adams for $2,300 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Batman-227-CGC-9-4-NEAL-ADAMS-SIGNED-COVER-/120814775990?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item1c211f2eb6 Whoops... making that 1 copy now, the 9.2 from the same seller seems to have dissapeared.
  10. GREAT...and I mean GREAT looking 8.5 ! .....That is a book I so want ! Oh yeah, its definately on my want list along with a #189 & #121!
  11. Action Comics #1 I can't get rid of. The hype on that has died down. I just recently read All Star Western, Justice League Dark & I, Vampire so will see if they fare any better. Chew comics still continue to sell, I sold the recent Flambe storyline for above cover price.
  12. I saw that on eBay this morning. Too rich for my blood! Awesome book though. My search for a 9.4 WP well centered continues
  13. "The End of Mr Y" by Scarlett Thomas. Started it today.
  14. So when is the time to sell? I've got a cracked out 8.0 on my hands. Still that 9.4 eludes me!
  15. There could be wisdom in this here post. Roy, who wished he started the whole talking in the 3rd person thing. Which was taken from the Seinfeld episode "The Jimmy"
