Anyone want to try help this guy out? He didn't believe me when I told him it has to have the 25 cent bubble to be the error. Thing is the cgc label is actually the error. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Uncanny-X-Men-423ERROR-CGC-9-0-VF-NM-Pricing-Error-On-Cover-Newsstand-Variant-/232529506435? -

So which reprint of amazing fantasy 15 is better to have?
cortown71 replied to rckstr1253's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
That's really cool.guess its earlier then marvel tales 1. I figure the OP wants something authentic but what I did for display purpose was find the highest res. scan I could find and had it printed out and put a reprint behind it.I don't like any of those with the boarders on them.I thought there was either a German or Mexican reprint a while back that did an exact replica.(see the German has euro price)? -
Yeah clearing cache doesn't do it.chrome is my go to browser choice.I tryed dolphin and same no contact seller link,but Firefox has it.just wait and see if they patch it.
-
I did this also.though I did buy ASM 1 right out the gate.looking back to 2013 I should of gotten AF 15. But I do like have all those SA marvel runs nearly complete.and I have owned AF15 before.
-
Yeah it disappeared from the bottom,that's where it was for me too.I'm on an android tablet using chrome. I've put it on desktop mode but still not there.
-
Here's what I see.(random listing) my workaround is to click their name and then contact from there.but still something not right.
-
Not seeing this on mine.

Just noticed this recently is anyone else missing the ask a seller a question option?

cortown71 replied to rckstr1253's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
Marvel tales #1 always did it for me.closet thing to the real thing.vintage paper look and feel.i've always considered it to be the 2nd print.137 is a close second. -
There's a hole in my collection..money goes into it and never comes out.

And then you have,most interesting guy in the world who doesn't always just jump feet first into that which he does not know... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Venom-Funeral-Pyre-W-The-Punisher-1993-1-GOLD-Ultra-Rare-NM-/201970926335?epid=85511473&hash=item2f0667c2ff%3Ag%3ABMQAAOSw~CFY7YiZ&nma=true&si=eywzBjgnb88fgMSwr6gQZXL3SZc%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 -

Moderns that are COOLING on EBAY...
cortown71 replied to Havok Jinx's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
The only thing i have written by lemire is the current Thanos series.I haven't been judgemental about it because thanos iis my top favorite villain.but...truly i find it mediocre at best.and the art has been taking a steady decline since it started. Now the art thing with preacher...yes the covers are great,but the interiors? Kinda like to today's stuff,great covers but romper room exploded inside.but not to that degree in preacher.I think it could of been a little more polished up instead of looking so sketchy. As far as moderns I do like,I went all in on all the abbnett and lanning cosmic stuff.covers matched interiors on most of annihilation/nova and conquest.guardians started slipping later.and the last few series have been decent enough.I really liked what looked like painted interiors on all new gotg #3( I think?) -

cortown71 replied to Havok Jinx's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
That's funny about preacher.I like the show and never read the comic.it spurred me on to check out the comic and I find myself struggling to get into it.I've read the first 17 or so.don't like the art I guess. -

cortown71 replied to Havok Jinx's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
So GOTG is pretty cold right now.can't resist picking up some of them like 1 and 25 and the variants.they're at least half of what they used to be,speaking all raw and nm-ish.of what I initially paid on some copies anyway.bought an entire run the other day for $40. Writing on the wall? Thought vol2 was a decent watch.looks like it had impact. Any thing else hit hard lately?
