  1. I'm crazy then. It isn't a matter of if on sub-$1,500 #1 prices, but how fast we get there. We play in a market where people pay $375 for Nowhere Men #1 variants-- raw, I might add --when the book isn't even on it's 4th issue. I think TWD is an easy $1,500 for the long haul. Adjusting for inflation puts that higher.
  2. There are a finite amount of #1's out there, regardless of how many are graded 9.8. The show's only built more and more fever for potential fans. I don't think we need a 40+ page thread to realize that yes, while there will be a drop off after the show is over, if you think this book will ever be had for south of $1,500, you're crazy. It's the key modern book to have. Period. Now-- when can we start talking about the OA bubble? That's the one I'm eager to see pop so i can snatch up some more covers!
  3. -- It's alright. His is ending at a better time, though. Either way, here's to a profit.
  4. Link? -slym search east of west cgc 9.8 I mean, it's pretty easy dude. I also don't want to spam the thread!
  5. I just put the first 9.8 #1 on ebay. Let's see how these do with a .99 cent starting point.

  9. Nice page! And it looks like CAF got a little tweak to their UI. Looks a little bit better!
  10. It's just pure B.S. too that they won't even refund for the upcharge to FT. It's rediculous. I don't even want the membership anymore. They need to get their act together. They've been behind for 12 months! This isn't like a problem that just snuck up on them! C'MON CGC. It's just a matter of time before someone cracks the code and offers up a decent competitor. Happy to give them my money.

  12. Really great time to buy! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Saga-1-CGC-9-8-NM-MT-Brian-K-Vaughan-Fiona-Staples-Image-Comics-/190823763837?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item2c6dfb8f7d&nma=true&si=xK02G3IOLPosTpyltZXWDmeQ840%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
  13. Would you be happy if you paid for something to be overnighted only for it to be delivered in a week? The complaints have merit. When you fast track something, you pay a premium for the timeliness. It's awful that they're 2-3 days late on grading, let alone two weeks. Awful.

  15. They're losing their credibility by the day and the only reason they're continuing to get business is because their competitors are so awful. I know they're working hard, but this is such a turn off to people new to the industry like me.
  16. Just got my FP variants. They're shipping materials are awesome. Really impressed!
