Yes, hope I didn't snatch it from you. But, I didn't want to pass it up.

That was a good price! And free shipping too!

new house, fiancée allowed me this tower of comics for my 'good' raws. I will rotate the comics on the display from time to time. Its in our entry way, which typically is unlit, and also why her umbrella is hanging there....

 

still trying to carve out a place for my slabs somewhere. maybe some shelves in the garage? Does anyone else put them in a garage? We live in a fairly dry moderate temperature climate. Will slabs do ok there?

 

 

that umbrella could fall....

accident waiting to happen there, dude!

PGX will hurt the value of your books. There are many collectors who WILL NOT buy a PGX under any circumstances. I am one of them. Keep them raw!

Anyone know anything about this issue of the Green Lantern? Print run? Cover ratio?

It was either 1:10 or 1:25. I bought both at my LCS when it came out, and he didn't have many GL's ordered.

I guess obscure regional variants will be the next big thing? Been selling these steadily for $20 a pop......

 

 

 

I dont know. I always see a bubble in sales for regional variants based. Bubble usually bursts after two to three weeks of book being released.

 

Weren't Mark Jeweler's regional variants?

Yes, but that was just advertising-- they were not printed to be a manufactured collectible.

Anything from 1939 that is complete and really not bad is worth $22!

Avengers #15 from my LCS!

A nice Avengers #15 from my LCS today.

I thought this was too nice to pass up-- a 9.4 from 1945!

And one more from Sparkle City that came today!

Got this at my LCS today-- he took 'offers' on it for about two weeks-- mine was best I guess. Now I have two!

today's

and the one I already had.

Got this at my LCS today.

Dynamite is bringing her back!

If he was at the CBLDF booth, odds are the money went to them, and they are certainly a worthy cause.

Spawn #9 Newsstand CGC 9.8 SOLD... for $300

There is no other comic with Angela worth owning.

 

There is an Angela Pirate story in a 1995 promotional book that will eventually sell well once people find out about it. Basically a story about Angela defeating a Cut Throat Pirate Spawn. It was given out to retailers based on their orders of Spawn 32 I think. (It somewhere around that number.) Came in two covers one Spawn and one Angela. Right now its in the $1 bin.

 

Other then that book yeah those two are about it.

Speaking as only a buyer, I would barely want to give that much for an already graded 9.8, and with the book being so new and over 200,000 printed, I think that is what they will be selling for soon enough. Already 640 graded 9.8! Any of the new 52 should be getting cheaper and cheaper, not the other way around.

One of the few I didn't have from my original purchases collection! My LCS had this today....

Couldn't resist these at the LCS today. $25 for an ASM 2 that is complete!

Planned on normal Comic Book day at LCS, but he had just gotten these, not even on display yet. Couldn't pass them up, even though I am usually a grade snob-- ASM 2 for $25? Who could say no!

No.

different light sources accelerate fading at different rates. It depends on the amount of ultraviolet (UV) light each particular light source produces. The worst culprit is natural daylight, followed at a distant second by incandescent and finally fluorescent. ESL (electron stimulated luminescence) bulbs are still close cousins to fluorescents in the way that they create light. These bulbs produce close to the same amount of UV as other fluorescent bulbs. Their main advantage over other fluorescents is that they contain no mercury. Fluorescent bulbs produce a small amount of UV, and until LEDs came on the market, they were the best bet. Only LEDs, which produce no ultraviolet light, completely protect fabrics and art from fading.

This was on my list of 'buy whenever you see it'.

They basically require prepayment. I think you are charged between 'received' and 'verified'. And in fairness, if they didn't require prepayment, a lot of orders would be held up when the check (or CC) bounced AFTER they were graded-- then they would have to devote someone full time to chasing money so they could ship books back to us.
