  1. Since joining the boards, I really don't look at my collection the same. I like to break it down into 3 categories:

     

    A) sketches I commissioned and picked up at same con

    B) sketches I've purchased off the boards or on Ebay

    C) sketches from opps or con pick ups where the artist had more time

     

    Category C has the best results and its definitely my favorite. I could easily do 5 from each A,B, and C but will stick to the 5 from all 3 categories.

     

    A) my favorite same con sketch

  2. As soon as Carnage is confirmed in a movie, these books will be going for $400 or more in 9.8. So if you're on the fence, get one now before any official announcement.

    That assumes that the movie news spike continues indefinitely. I suspect it won't, but when it scales back I can't say.

     

    So far only rumors have been thrown around for Carnage to appear in a Venom movie. When Carnage is confirmed to be in any movie, prices will go up.

  3. I watched a raw sell at C2E2 for $90... I was in shock.

    :o Wow that's crazy!

     

    I went from booth to booth looking to pick up copies and a few of the dealers threw out $90 at me. I haggled and got about 4-5 copies in VF-VF+ for about $35/40 ea. Watch out for the copies with the "printer defect" small tears at the bottom. And yes, the book continues to rise even as the weeks go by.

     

    What kind of grade drop will these tears cause? If a book looks like it would otherwise grade 9.8 but has these tears, what will it grade?
