  2. I was buying sixth gun when it was a 5 dollar book. I really enjoy this book. Buy what you like. MGMT I am staying away from, glad some are making some cash from it.
  3. We are going to see more of this, happened to me on a FCBD sixth gun a few weeks ago.
  4. Never gonna heat up on ebay! The title is too long CGC IT
  5. I wouldnt agree with banning them, because honestly I believe I have done them the right way. I have so many prizes above the 50 asking price per box (other 10 is shipping), if you look at modern prices around here the prizes I have thrown in above value of a box alone are : Saga 1-7 NM+ Revival 1-6 NM+, Manhattan projects 1 NM+, I have 4 sets of Nowhere men 1 and 2 NM+, 2 SS books 9.4 and 9.6, a 9.6 modern batman variant, a 9.8 ASM 692 9.8 fan expo varaint ($200 book), and many more prizes which I sure I am forgetting off the top of my head. I have several other books in each box I have thrown in on top of what is pictured, about 100 ASM books from 100-300 have been added to peoples boxes as well, including an ASM 239 MG, and an ASM 194 MG. So if a person is unfortinate not to get a big prize as shown above there are smaller books which are FMV for them add up to approximnately $50. I am not looking to dump any crappy books in the thread. I think it speaks volumes to the prizes I am giving out that 7 boxes in my 2nd round were sold to people who purchased boxes in the first. If there is any better way I could be handling these threads for mystery boxes, please let me know. I agree... in no way should they be banned. I feel that the idea behind them is a lot of fun. You (Venom) and few other sellers have went above and beyond giving value to your lots. Miraclemet hit on the head, just make sure you know who you are buying from and have a general idea as to what you might be getting. And just don't "expect" to win big...that way if you do (win big)... then its that much more of a surprise Do I smell a ClooneyBox coming?
  6. I am getting a lot of flack for being on the artists side. The argument it here. Most think its ok. I do not. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=6364207&nt=6&fpart=1
  7. This coming from a guy who joined a week ago.
  8. Quick question Ken, Do you mind if people don't buy your book and just get a pirated digital copy of it from somewhere. There's an argument going on saying that piracy doesn't hurt anyone but the big company's. how do you feel about it?
  9. WOW you guys give the creator the choice on what paper they want to use. Now only if Marvel would do that. Seriously Marvel comics paper and the amount of ads are so bad that I refuse to buy a marvel comic. I bought Young Avengers for my little brother and the spine already has white marks on it. Now I only pirate Marvel Comics, I will buy when they use image paper and no ads. For example: Look at this copy of Manhattan Projects #3, I never had that bagged or boarded, its still in amazing shape. http://www.ebay.com/itm/170982491788?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 Respect to Image Not every image book uses different paper though..... Anyway I've bought every marvel now book and the condition was probably better on shelves than image books.. Pirating comics is just a waste of harddrive space for me so If Ineed to I can use those marvel books for toilet paper.. That is once I run out of money to use for that purpose I'm glad you don't pirate books, but with the size and price of hard drives.. Space shouldn't really be a problem. Now when I paid $100 for my used 100 meg drive.. That would have.
  10. I say don't put yourself in debt for anything comic related.
  11. I don't think Previews magazine can be slabbed. Too big.
  12. I still think bedlam qualifies, all those NYCC threads, etc etc People have as many Bedlams as they are talking about buying EoW. I have 7 CGC 9.8 Bedlam #1s and 13 raw. Wont be buying that many EOW, promise you that. I fully agree Bedlams in there. But the hobby is BLOWING up now. More and more "Hollywoods" are coming to play..
  13. There's 100 people that like that band. I kid. Prince does this a lot also.. Good for fans.
  14. Remember my shark post a few days past that only few agreed with ... I'm not happy about this, but this is what happens.
  15. This thread is full of win. Keep em coming. The back of Doberman had this ad/cover of this book.
  16. I'm slightly confused how I earned this nickname. (Clean version for the kids)
