  1. I had one buyer, must have been new to collecting slabs, asked how oil got in the case. After trying to explain the science behind it he said he was gong back to baseball cards
  2. Well CGC has been known to give the "GA" bump for books in the golden era not sure so much for SA. There should at least be some consistency in any discretion used when dealing with books at this price point. Here's a book I recently got that predates the above Avengers 1 by 13 years that I believe is a true 9.6 and looks better than that AV 1. I think @Bomber-Bob reply was spot on in that grading was very loose for a period of time and some of those books should be avoided.
  3. David bought a few books from me, class act all the way around. A real asset to to the boards.
  4. Thanks any Intel on price or artists?
  5. While sorting through some books came across this one which I don't recall how it came to me. Tried looking it up in overstreet to no avail. Inside front and back covers are blank. Back outside cover has some publication info from Canada. Here are a couple of pics. Looking for any reference on price for this in addition to artists for cover. Thanks in advance.
  6. Very informative. Keep drinking the coffee.
  7. I don't know the back story on this particular book but checking with the boardie I purchased from for additional info if he has.
  8. Keep looking for more reasons to post this...
  9. Well there's something you don't see everyday. Dude never fails to deliver the goods.
  10. Bought and sold with Rick on multiple occasions dealing in both CGC and raw books. Always 100% happy with each transaction.
  11. +1 Rick is top shelf, Never would hesitate to buy a raw book from him. Only wish I had more money to do so....
  12. these are always challenging for me, I'm going to guess a 3.0/3.5
  13. Received a gem this week. So glad to get some of these great books from boardies.
  14. The spine alone disqualifies as a 9.6 IMO but hey, it's about what's on the label, right?
  15. Sell it on the boards here... Potential problem solved. The other suggestions about MCS or auction houses are decent alternatives too.
  16. peanut butter, or what looked like smeared peanut butter. I refused to take the taste or smell test. An x-men 7 right in the trash....
  17. It does make me wonder what would necessitate the need for that much cash so quick. If he has what he says just auctioning off the AF 15 and AS 8 alone is like half that nut of what he's looking for and wouldn't take long. If I had the money I'd definitely go for a look see.
  18. So every now and then I pursue CL as most of us do around here and happened upon this one in my area. Not sure if it's still available or even legit, although I suspect it may be. As they say sharing is caring.... https://newjersey.craigslist.org/clt/d/selling-my-lifetime/6591205157.html
  19. Total awesomeness! Great work! The length of the drawer reminds me of Bruce almighty for some reason.
