  1. I may finally break down and buy a latest gen console in 2015... http://starwars.ea.com/battlefront.html Star Wars Battlefront may be the game that enables me to pull the trigger.
  2. Sometimes I see things postd in this thread that I would love to own. This is one of those times. That's awesome.
  3. Very happy about this one even though it is PLOD Notes: Piece added to the cover, Tear Seals to Cover (I think where the staple was reinforced), Cover Cleaned, Cover Reinforced.
  4. Oh, I should have clarified that. I actually own two 9.9's of a certain comic. However, I do not believe that buying the top graded copy of a modern book is always smart as there are many others out there that could potentially qualify to be assessed at the same grade. I believe that the risk in buying the "highest graded" copy decreases with the older the book.
  5. Arrived today while I was sleeping albeit in another USPS crushed box. Thank goodness for plenty of bubble wrap. The piece added to the cover looks to be around the spine in order to reinforce the staple. I did not see anything noticeable anywhere else.
  6. This is why I sometimes think it is safer to pick up 9.6 copies of certain books instead of 9.8 copies especially when their exists posabilities of 9.9's and even a 10.0.
  7. He had cash on hand. He went to the ATM to "get a bit more" I would say more than that. For the rest of you asking how much he paid. He has not said, respect the privacy in that if he wanted you to know, he would have disclosed that information already. Let it go Indiana... let it go.
  8. Congratulations. I am glad that it all worked out.
  9. Nice books, Buzzetta! Thank you! I added another one to the set tonight. I cannot wait for it to arrive. EDIT: Pic removed: I don't want to jinx myself until I have it in hand as it travels through the mail.
  10. GAtor... What is the one thing you regret selling and not keeping for yourself? (If such an item exists)
  11. I have to say that I was inspired by Comicdonna's original Action collection to start picking up this title. Here are my entries. I am hoping to pick up a couple more over the next few years. A lot of those books are simply fascinating to have in hand for me. Action Comics 28: 3.0 Action Comics 34: 6.5 Action Comics 36: 6.5 (My favorite of the ones I own) Action Comics 41: 5.0 Action Comics 65: 7.0 Action Comics 76: 5.0 Action Comics 92: (Raw no pic)
  12. Dear Rick, Any chance you can reign in and keep a certain "someone" who does "an end of the year report" on the CGC boards in the Gold area of the boards? He is going to get all of our threads in Comics General locked or poofed. Many thanks in advance and as always, I speak for the boards when I say we appreciate your help in all things comic booky. See you at NYCC
  13. What did you win then? Earlier Stegman Spider-man preliminary page along with finished pencil and ink page from ASM 665.
  14. It's almost surprising that Fox doesn't have the rights to the inhumans as at the time that Fox bought the film rights to FF, the inhumans were primarily associated with the FF unlike Black Panther who was introduced in the FF but became associated with the Avengers. The Black Panther example is sort of like how Kingpin became associated with Daredevil instead of being included in the deal with Sony along with the Spiderman rights.
  15. How much more time on Elektra? I would guess that it would be about two years after the rights to Daredevil reverted to Marvel.
  16. Tow it on a flatbed through the drive-through. See if they serve.
  17. What did you win then? Was an underbidder on the Batman 20 but it ended $500 north of GPA and didn't feel like setting a new record. Which was a shame because I would have gone after an ASM 14. A couple of other things look interesting but, I may wait to see what is offered around the internet next month.
  18. Too many Andrews on this forum...I've lost count. Not my fault, blame my parents. They named me.
  19. Wait, who else is an "Andrew"? Dedicated to all the CLink auctions I lost... (Tongue in cheek - there are a lot more important things than old newsprint) or Johnny Marr doing the song solo (weird but true)
  20. +1 You and I usually don't go after the same stuff so... good luck.
  21. I am settling in for the CLink auction tonight.
  22. You have no idea. Here... enjoy some Damien Rice - nice song... creepy video.
  23. "...shake the hand of the mango man as he greets you at the border..."
