  1. It will pop up if stolen. If a search brings up Action 1 $3.207.852 than some will make a mistake. If not stolen than it will show if stolen it will show in the mean time nothing you can do sorry
  2. When you insure a book/page for the 4k thats not what its worth to you. I want the book/page back. I will say if it was stolen your chance of getting it back went way up that page is one of a kind in or out of the CGC holder
  3. Cool. The underrated Frank Thomas. into the hof on the first ballot and underrated? Roids!
  4. Great book hard to find but conserved with cover clean married back cover and centerfold pieces added tear seal ? I'm sorry Hey thats great i was just saying. I would love to have that book and go fishing for G.A.tor.
  5. Why on earth was this information posted where anyone could read it?? If a FedEx label falls off the box, I was told their protocol is to open those boxes to document their contents. If that happened, an employee would see the CGC slab and the Action #1 label. If CGC listed "CGC" as the return address and an employee knew what CGC is, they could open the box themselves and steal the contents. Yes someone sees Action 1 on label they might just think this is it.
  6. Why on earth was this information posted where anyone could read it?? To let Wayne-Tec know this stuff happens i have seen it myself. I cant think of any reason why she would bring boxes in her house than bring them out.
  7. I had a ups driver live down the street from me for years . I saw her go in her house at lunch with boxes than 45 min later come out with them. It did not take me long to put it togeteher. I think with all the news on Action 1 its fair to say WOW when you read the label. I do think you will get this back since you are on top of it so hard.

  9. Still have them the Tec only got a 17 k bid back then. Action 2 and 7 Cap 1 and lots others bit the dust and nothing but little money to show for it.
  10. Ya walk thru would have been the way to go but getting all the money i could for a house fast was what i had to do as my #1. I was told if the Tec 27 was redone today it would be a lot nicer so thats what i think i do but i have had the book so long its not a big deal to crack out or leave.
  11. I'm having troubles understanding this post I have a Tec 1 and 27 plus a Bat 1 you follow that. I did not want to send the books thru the mail for the reason Wayne-Tec posted lost lost and lost. I drove to pgx 500 miles away to get them graded rather than take a chance of lost in the mail. Is that better MetalPSI So ... you saved a bit on shipping and lost hugely on sales price - seems smart. I agree with him that I would have never sent it to be shipped. I agree with you that I would have only had CGC certify those books. I would have taken a flight to Florida and done walk through. I drink to much your right Buzzetta your eyes dont lie.
  12. Time machine? Hey girl you look like a young 007 now i like the old look better They do look good right you find the page

Is that better MetalPSI You lost me at PGX With books of this value any 3rd party grade is better than the seller only opinion right. Not with PGX As far as pgx goes they are not CGC but a lot better than nothing that's one opinion Yup you are right but my opiinion goes a long way to the dealers that have wanted these books in the pgx holder for years they get the idea the can get more if the send to CGC. I do say for resale value and to get top dollor i made a bad choice but i can change that easy

Is that better MetalPSI When you have that kind of books i guess you have an aproppiate insurance i mean something similar to art dealers and collectors If you have 3 books like Batman 1, Detective 1 and 27...even if you do not have private insurance to cover them....using a carrier that will insure them for FMV and paying the higher cost for CGC or Voldemort grading makes infinitely more sense to me than saving money on cheaper grading costs by using PGX. With the subpar market confidence in PGX, you are leaving muuuch more money on the table when the books are sold. What Woowoo would have been better off doing would be to have subbed the 3 books through ComicLink (who would have subbed the books to CGC or Voldemort and fronted the cost)....then would have handled the sales of the 3 books for a 10% commission (13% if the buyer paid by CC)....not to mention, you get CL's discount on CGC/Voldemort grading fees. Which is just what eBay would have charged....and you get the benefit of a trusted firm like CL, handling all aspects of listing & selling the books. I understand not wanting to put out large chunks of cash in grading fees, but come on....PGX? I have no issue with covering modern CGC fees myself bc the overhead/buy in in relation to return % on the investment is much better on moderns than (most) pre-1975 books...but Woowoo's reasoning is inherently flawed. I have a couple dozen high grade BA/SA books ( mostly books with GPA sale points around $250-$400....some books that I have bought over 15+ years ago...back when it was possible to buy unpressed HG SA books at small cons for 50% off Overstreet..before CGC came into play and obliterated that possibility. Unfortunately, I sold the best keys from those older buys I made, years ago before movie values exploded on them.....like an unpressed VF FF 48...unpressed Det 359 in VF....ugh. When I do get around to dry cleaning and pressing the books I have left.....now that I've wised up....they will all be going to CL and the CGC fees will be covered by CL and paid out of my end, when each book sells. This was 10 plus years ago. When it comes to Tec 1 and 27 the books where done early 80s and i wanted a fast sale to buy a house. I now would have the books redone by CCS than graded by CGC. I will say PGX put the grade on all 3 the same as i had them graded and i have been with big goldenage books for years.

CBCS copy in 4.5 e just sold at Heritage for 163.

  19. Shipping a Tec 27 Bat 1 Tec 1 was one of the reasons i drove 500 miles to pgx rather than ship to CGC . I wanted a fast sale to buy a house cheap here in C.A. I know CGC was the only name but NO place i went Fed x usps ups would insure the value and it would have meant high $$$ for fast grading 3 big books and shipping. Sorry for your problem with the page.
  20. great book in any shape Thanks Harold. Not nearly as nice as your copy. A copy is a copy just to have one is huge deal, Dont ever think its not. I would be happy to have a .5 xtra. I bought a copy of Action 16 from an old bud last year;He had the book since the 80s i was so busy looking for resto that i did not find that the centerfold had a rip that was glued back.
  21. I love Action 2 a lot and wish i still had my copy. I would read it a lot in the 80s and loved that cover. Hudson need you to sell me 1 BUD
  22. Tec 27 is a 10 Action 1 is an 8 Batman vs Superman is an 5 DVD have to wait and see. http://www.cbsnews.com/news/video-tallies-up-batmans-body-count-in-batman-v-superman-dawn-of-justice/
