  1. Can you do that? I've always be hesitant to try a best offer during a coupon deal because I thought I would be stuck if the offer was accepted after deal expired.
  2. Hi! I stumbled upon this group yesterday and thought i would join the party. My first purchase here on the boards was this Archie 50 . The hunt for it is what actually brought me here. I picked up the #8 a couple months ago raw.
  3. Here's mine. Thankfully he didn't sign it in the webbing area in silver pen.
  4. Hey, this Infinity Gauntlet TPB that I got to replace the one that I dropped in the toilet is great! Thanks for shipping it fast!
  5. I had a group of Spawn books that Francisco was looking for in WTB. He decided to buy them and everything went great!
  6. I was thinking the same thing. It occurred to me that since CGC has them listed separately on the census that someone there might know. But then based on the GCD info I figured that anyone submitting this book for grading could probably pick either publisher on the submission form and be correct. Which also means that if someone wanted to, they could crack and resubmit a higher than 5.0 graded Dell copy and call it a K.K.copy and bam! instant highest graded copy (assuming it gets the same grade) Honestly I feel that if I were to sell the 5.0 copy here on the boards and tried to call it a highest graded copy without knowing the difference, it would get called out as BS. I'm not saying Comiclink did anything wrong by listing it that way and again I don't care. But people here are smart and would certainly question it.
  7. So after a few beers I decided to bid on (and win) this Camp Comics #2 - 5.0 from Comiclink . I had not even noticed that it was listed as the highest graded copy until later, and It's not really important to me anyway. Today I was looking at my Email from Heritage showing me my watch list and I saw this 9.4 on my list. My first reaction was "how can this be?" But after checking the census and looking a little closer I realized that one is published by Dell and one by K.K.publications both on 3/42. Both are listed separately in the census so I guess technically the 5.0 being the highest graded is true. I found another raw copy previously sold on Heritage as a K.K. copy https://comics.ha.com/itm/golden-age-1938-1955-/miscellaneous/camp-comics-2-k-k-publications-1942-condition-nm-while-this-is-the-only-one-of-the-three-issues-that-overstreet-doesn-t/a/752-50146.s?ic3=ViewItem-Auction-Archive-ThisAuction-120115 and see that both the Dell and K.K. published books have the same back cover and it seems they both have the same content according to the listing descriptions. Can anyone tell me the difference? I did find some info here about K.K. Publishing and Dell https://www.comics.org/publisher/286/ It's still not clear though and I figured one of the very knowledgeable boardies might have an answer for me . Hopefully I'll learn something today. Thanks -Brian
  8. Here's what I got back from on-site grading. Also picked up the Fight 61 from Bedrock City and Fritzi from Metropolis And couldn't resist the Bruce Timm Spider-Woman sketch. Also got my X-Factor 69 signed by Whilce Portacio. I really wanted him to sign on that last page because I remember how cool I thought that explosion was. He said Jim Lee drew that
  9. I had to call customer service about something else so I asked about this. They said you're not guaranteed to get your books graded at the show if you filled out the form online. Gotta get there early!
  10. Can any on-site veterans tell me realistically how early to show up Friday before the doors open so I don't get turned away for on-site grading? I've already filled out my submission form online, but I'm assuming that's not a guarantee they'll get graded at the show. Thanks!
  11. I had a book Dave had a post for in the WTB section. Everything went very smoothly with the sale!
  12. Burn the Witch - Queens of the Stone Age
  13. Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polkadot Bikini - Brian Hyland
  14. Love Rollercoaster - Ohio Players (or Red Hot Chilli peppers if you prefer)
  15. All Star - Smash Mouth ( The song doesn't rock but the comic does )
  16. For Whom the Bell Tolls - Metallica!
  17. Check one more book off my WTB list thanks to GoldCap! Everything went smoothly, I couldn't be happier
  18. My new Sub-Mariner book is spectacular! Thanks for packing it so securely Jim!
  19. Bought a Sensation #25 from John. Book was packed well and shipped fast with no problems.
