  1. Here's the back of the book...some water damage... Sorry for the bad lighting That's still a very nice looking 3.0!!
  2. I bought a Silver Age key from Dat and I couldn't be happier. He gave me time payments to allow me to purchase it and then accommodated me with the shipping! I will definitely buy again!!
  3. My 2 OO copies. Will be sending them to CGC in the next 2 weeks. Copy A Copy B
  4. Did you get VueScan? I've got it and my 8250 is working great. More info? Mac or PC? What scan program are you using? I'm installing VueScan now and it seems to have resolved the issue! Thanks Andrew!!
  5. I picked up my HP8250, installed the drivers, plugged it in, attached the USB and nada! I should add I'm not tech savy and maybe I did something wrong (but I think I did it all properly). Any advice would be appreciated!
  6. Bill bought an ASM from me and paid ASAP! Hope to deal with him again!
  7. I just picked up a used HP 8250 and have a question: the person I bought it from said it's just a plug and play scanner - that I don't need to install any drives. He demonstrated it to me and it looked fine but I just want to be sure. Is there anything I need to install to get the best scanning results? Thanks for your replies in advance and sorry if this has been asked somewhere earlier in this thread.
  8. Got a beautiful 9.8 ASM Stan Lee from Dre - very fast and secure shipping. Will for sure buy again from him!
  9. Paul bought a lot of ASMs and paid ASAP! Look forward to more transactions with him!
  10. What was the grade for the book? Just curious! So glad I have my lowly 2.0 I couldn't afford this book anymore! Will this book EVER run out of steam? Or will demand always outpace supply? Seems unlikely to happen anytime soon!
  11. Beautiful book and with white pages to boot! Welcome to the club!
  12. 2nd transaction with Tom! He bought 2 more Godzillas from me and it went super smooth again!!
  13. Jon bought 2 ASM hardcovers from me. Being Canadian and in the same city, we naturally met up at a local hockey rink! Smooth and easy transaction!
  14. Bought a Giant Size Spider-Man slab from Steve and the book arrived 2 days later, packed very safe and secure. Looking forward to buying more books from him!!
  15. Of course I want a super model in my bed. But I'll settle for the girl next door, if she is nice looking and reasonable.
  16. Cherry-picking a couple of data points isn't an accurate way of depicting the market. The guidance provided was a range that denotes a large amount of scenarios and was accurate. Not sure if you are unhappy because you own a restored book and "want" it to be worth more or something else, but this is just silly. If we are to talk about what's silly, hen the market itself gives us plenty of accurate examples of silly behavior in regard to resto. Originally, the idea of identifying resto was to say "it looks like a certain grade but it's actually a lower grade books that's been repaired or made to appear better." That then evolved into a desire to identify books not just as restored but "desecrated" so it was judged not based on what the grade was prior to the work and how the grade was changed but on the intent behind the work. Thus, a book with giant red scribbles on the focal point of the cover became worth more than a book with a couple dots of red ink in a red field of the book, and a book with a tiny tear seal was valued less than a book with a much larger tear that had not been sealed. A book with color touch in a corner was worth less than a book with a large section of that corner torn away. The information about values may be accurate. But I think if we call a person "silly" for pointing out anomalies in the prices realizes, it begs for someone to point out the anomalies in pricing which result from silliness. Very well said!!
