  1. Kudos to buttock for an expertly packed and accurately graded Astonishing 4. Pre-code doesn't get much better....
  2. Kudos to october for a batch of very nice books ranging from GA to Copper, and namisgr for 5 Silver Age Supes, all most satis. Thanks gents!!
  3. Didn't want to get in the way of the Joe Collector Sunday tradition of insulting half the sellers on the Forum.... in the cd4ever-vein. You were joking? Apologies JC. Don't see enough of the lighter side of Mr. Serious...

  5. Kudos to jimjum12 for a sweet Journey Into Mystery 90, sent in a huge box with acres of buffer.
  6. I am in definite agreement on this point. Quite simply the most distinguished artifacts of the age.
  7. Guy went to a lot of trouble to fool that couple (faking his own death, burying himself whilst somehow putting a fake tombstone on top of his grave, and then jumping out at exactly the right moment when the couple turn up, etc.). Great stuff.
  8. I think you have the bug. You just don't know it (or aren't ready to admit it) yet. A Tec 31 is enough to turn even the most focussed of SA collector's heads...
  9. Kudos to Jeffro and pjthib for some great, well packed books.
  10. That's Golddust! Just like Andy without red pants. But with the nice gold lame suit and makeup instead.
  11. Kudos to thedude for a quickly shipped, nicely packed and as described Fight Against Crime 20.
  12. Thank you and Kudos to Goldust40 for being patient as I learn how to ship books overseas! You packaged them like an old pro, and books from the U.S. rarely reach me quicker than 4 days.
  13. Kudos to ComicDoc for two very nice and as described DC Silver Age books. Great packing, too.
  14. Glad it arrived safely and all praise appreciated (and yeah, living in a country where it never stops raining means I always make sure that packages are watertight and can survive against the elements).
  15. You mean like FF 110? Very good question. I'd've thought such an error (I've not seen one of those before, fwiw) would've been treated the same way. There are no structural problems to qualify the grade. I assume it could go for more than a regular Avengers 10 as it is rare - but the market is sometimes skewed regarding error books like this. FF 110 "green" version usually goes for a large premium, especially in high grade, whereas other books with similar "defects" do not. Maybe it's because it's still aesthetically eye-catching, but that's just a guess. Either way, great books - impressive how many have white pages. And that Cap 110 is the nicest (whitest) I've seen.
  16. Big kudos to the following board denizens, who once again have put ebay transactions in the shade... FoolKiller for two packages worth of great HG Silver Age Marvel and DC. More please. Kimik for a bunch of well packed and very nice Bronze Age Bats and Tecs. Kagemusha7s and Kahml for some speedily shipped Bronze and Silver pieces. All bang on. Excelsior!
  17. You and me both, Bob - I'm still kicking myself for not buying stuff from you (and a handful of other U.S. dealers) at 2005 and 2006 shows. The strong pound should've made me increase my spending twofold. As Brasseye has pointed out, the cycle of the most collected books (i.e. high grade early Silver Age Marvels) has shifted from 8 years to 4, and 2005 prices on many early Marvels in HG look like a bargain now. And that's at least partly attributable to GPA.
  18. Kudos to Araich and Xavier Logan for two seamless transactions and great GA books. This Forum is da best, as if that wasn't common knowledge...
  19. And the pompous, sanctimonious martinets must be perching atop their high horses, breaking out the same smug, deliberately inflammatory, attention - seeking judgements for the umpteenth time...
  20. Damn, greggy does it again - Ron Murry's stuff, I presume? I'm envious.
