    and soon to be another af 15

    Cool Book. What is up with Comicconnect and the QES stickers as of late ? Does Fishler own a piece of QES ? It seems so weird.........

    Tec 31 in 1.0 now pulls further away from Cap 1 in 1.0 ........early mega key Marvel just can't come close to Bats or Supes
  4. Chicago Boy
    Tec 27 and Action 1 in any way ,shape, or form (as long as they have the bats and supes story ) are in their own stratosphere . pound for pound . Other mega keys can't touch them
  5. Chicago Boy
    So their are 2 different color cowl versions ? Kind of like the Blue's on a Hulk 1 ??
  6. Chicago Boy
    I see nothing wrong with the practice of allowing the customer to select the label between blue and green because in actuality it is both
  7. Chicago Boy
    Well, there's no accounting for taste
  8. Chicago Boy
    All 4 million regret it

    I couldn't even get through it. So bad. John Cena and Stallone were the worst. the first one with Will Smith was 1000 x better

    Seller fee on comics is 12.5 %. That's still higher than anyone with a solid track record in comics . Not sure why anyone would want to go there. I know someone in WV that approached them (among others) with a mega key and G Auctions wouldn't move on the fee.......

    The 9.8 WP Spidey #14 on Heritage is insane. Second only to the AF 15 9.6 IMO. Any guesses on Hammer. ?
  12. Chicago Boy
    He had offers up to 120k I believe. light tan to cream PQ and slight pieces missing from pages 2-7 (slightly effects Bats story) Great copy. Hope he gets his price. Tec 27 and Action 1 are on a whole other playing field $ wise
  13. Chicago Boy
    I love Little Dot 1 ! The poor man's Pep 22 !!
  14. Chicago Boy
    You are not getting a complete unrestored very poor copy for under 200k Complete coverless Tec 27's 115-125k (depending on eye appeal & PQ) Coverless missing the centerfold probably max out at 100k (depending on eye appeal and PQ) Provenance plays a part in their somewhere as well. How much ? I don't know. maybe 10K minimum. (Kane copy, DC file copy, Robinson copy)
  15. Chicago Boy
    It will break the record. By how much ? Dunno .
  16. Chicago Boy
    Winner !
  17. Chicago Boy
    Well, would you let a customer who makes almost undetectable counterfeit bills shop at your store ? I wouldn't......

    The personal Ditko collection up for auction needs way more press. This stuff is awesome !
  19. Chicago Boy
    Because he did that good of a job. one has nothing to do with the other IMO. CGC needs to pick up on it. downgrade it. and put that its been trimmed on the blue label
  20. Chicago Boy
    It's the most that I can recall ever seeing personally. Usually I see a 0.5 that's a coupon as you mentioned, 1 page, and the front or back cover
  21. Chicago Boy
    If I took Overstreets word for anything I could get a hell of a lot of deals on many mega keys
  22. Chicago Boy
    depending on how much is missing. incomplete can get a 0.5 and usually do unless it's a qualified label because the owner chooses for one based on how nice a presenting copy it is. I had a Cap 1 once missing 2 wraps and it received a Blue 0.5 from CGC.
  23. Chicago Boy
    I certainly think it needs to affect the grade and be noted on the BLUE label. Incomplete is an interesting way to look at it and one I have never thought of.......

    Comic collecting is it's own animal when it comes to restoration and conservation. I am on board with CBCS on this one--trimming is not restoration. I am not the only boardie that feels this way but perhaps we are in the minority.
  25. Chicago Boy
    Trimming is destruction (not restoration) The book may have a "nice clean edge" but it physically is no longer the same size as the book when it was manufactured, it's missing some of it's color (perhaps the slightest of art) , and the art /printed word(s) is/are no longer proportionate to an originally manufactured cover Therefore the book was not restored to appear to be in it's original form
