He had a reputation amongst the vintage prop collectors for selling fake Superman costumes.

which unfortunately, I was a victim of .his.

Too much gloss like a FFE.

I’ve made and loss but the losses were lessons. You win by the lessons from losing. 
if someone tells you they never lose they are lying to you!

Maybe someone bought one of those extensively restored comics, like the below, and doesn't want to admit it?

I COULDN"T afford to pay the tax ANYWHERE...

I only owned a trimmed book once and that was because it was an MF52

I wouldn’t want to pay the tax on that on NY.

I'm sorry, but If they throw in the crack pipe they used in making the auction it might help the buyer not have remorse.

I congratulation the seller for timmg the market, to the second, to be the first.

I'm going to predict 8 million, with the BP.

I’d hate to pay the taxes on that. Especially in NY.

Does it still have that rusty bottom staple?

I forgot about the rusty staple. Was that the PCE copy?

Those folks do not love golden age comics.

I do. I have cream/ off white GA.

I don't consider any of those books or their pages crummy.

There are some who consider cream/ off white  a kiss of death. I’m not one.

any guesses on price...5.2 M...my guess with BP

I believe this was the first comic book to break 1 million when sold?

so this was the special surprise I was being alerted to about by Herotage.

prediction. 5.7 to 6.3 million.

I’m basing that off of the 3.4 million 6.0 sale

I knew what you meant. Some people don’t like to have their books creamed on like Richard says.

The Denver books have crummy pages, so I'd go with Okajima. I'm one of the odd ducks who prefers the ones without writing on them.
