  1. Since we're on the subject, can anybody recommend a fire proof filing cabinet that can store slabs in it?

     

    :gossip: Two words. Rusty staples

     

    Maybe, maybe not. Mine have been in a fire proof safe for 5 years with no signs whatsoever of anything like that. Of course, I regularly open the safe and have about 10 pounds of silicate crystals in the bottom of it.

     

    Cool. It's something I'm still looking into and not really in a rush right now. If I did have a safe it would be opened regularly in a climate controlled area. It's just the thought of losing another collection to a disaster such as a fire again makes me shutter.

  2. I had a run of Northland House of Mystery comics that a collector of70's DC Horror kept enquiring about that i kept refusing to sell because i thought they were so nice. About 6 months before CGC came about i decided to sell and have regretted it ever since. I contacted the guy i sold it to a couple of years later but by now they were split with several other collectors. I do try to keep an eye out to see if any pop up anywhere and ive probably missed a few but i did spot the #199 in the Comiclink auction graded as a 9.8 which does not surprise me at all and makes me regret it even more :facepalm:.
