  1. This book:

    It's not high grade, the cover is detached and it has a chunk missing from the bottom but I found it in my father's warehouse and it got me back into comics and kicked off our small family business.

     

    I PMed the guy who bought it and he said he sold it on eBay. If I ever see it, I'll pay double what I sold it for...it means that much to me!

     

    Kinda like Uncle Scrooge's first dollar he made (or was it a nickel?). That's kinda cool.

  2. Why did I get an e-mail for the shipment of value tier books that I submitted, asking for the mailing address of my not-yet-born great-great-great grandchildren? (shrug)

    By then they'll be worth billions. CGC is actually helping your posterity in the long run. It's a public service, really.

  3. Finishing off a genre!!! Just got this in the mail from boardie Dr. Love. This was the last books that I needed to have all the love and kids type books released from 1/1960 to 12/1979 from Marvel. These books were the hardest to find by far out of any of the comics. Just getting the last book. I had asked anyone I could about it. Emailed dealers. Asked at cons. By luck Dr. Love had one and contacted me and of course didn't want to sell it. :tonofbricks: He collects EVERY romance type book in high grade. He may never find this book again in high grade. After explaining what I was trying to do. He understood my completist mind set and offered to sell it to me. We agreed if I find a lower grade copy for my collection at some time I would sell him back this book. Really nice of him to agree to this! Thanks Bro! (worship)

  4. WTTB, bb8!

    That's a nice, solid copy! :applause:

     

    Thanks man! I must say, though, your collection is epic. My tastes are along the same as yours: bronze and silver Marvel. Except for very rare exceptions, I stick solely to exactly that. Although I haven't tried collecting all 20 years! Holy , man! What an undertaking!
