  1. I mostly only do marvel and dc, very limited on Indy stuff. If I had to pick the best from each I would pick Watchmen from DC (with dark knight returns the runner up). For Marvel I would go with the Infinity Gauntlet 1-6 which I bought off the spinner rack in the early 90s when comics were still sold that way. Secret Wars from a few years prior is also a good choice.
  2. Well that is kind of mean. His price looks spot on to me. Last sale was 372 THIS month so 375 shipped and insured looks like market value to me for a hot first character appearance. Also the 9.0 price you got was an anomaly. The 12 month average is 472 based on 7 sales so it is good data and includes your sale bringing the average down. Congrats on getting a deal but no need to rub it in or thread a reputable board members sale thread.
  3. I thought it was a great show this year. Attendance was high, or seemed higher than previous years. There were less huge books in the room than years past, but more deals to be had. Andrew, you would have crushed it this year from a flipping stand point. It was much better than last year in that regard. For the collector looking for $1000+ GA/SA books? Not as strong as last year.
  4. Also attendance was still really strong especially Sunday. David Tenant only being there that day made a difference for Sunday for Goldman’s attendance figures, but I will say a lot of those people weren’t looking to buy comics either. I also missed Collector Zone’s and @catrick339‘s booth. Love buying from those guys.
  5. I thought it was a good show but I hope next year it doesn’t go head to head with megacon. I can’t see that helping either show. My Superman run missed Ted’s, Dale’s, and Greg’s booths.
  6. Dale has a great booth so I hear you. There will be a lot of first time at the show dealers, so at least that is new books to look at.
  7. Please do! Your booth is a must stop for me each year. Hope to see you again in Michigan!!!
  8. So you were the one who called hundreds of times that ended up killing Robin......
  9. Fair point. I know of 2 first time dealers setting up at this show. One of them has only done 1-2 small 1 day type shows and has tons of mostly “unpicked” stock in there. Those kind of guys won’t have $10,000 GA keys/high grade books but they will have tons of flipable affordable keys for the flip crowd and silver/bronze run filler for the collector crowd.
