  1. Or a 10 part Netflix series with a Luke Cage cameo dressed as Stan Lee for Hallowe'en.
  2. I have this America's Best Comics #4 CGC 8.0 OWW (tied for highest graded) for sale in the GA/SA/BA marketplace. https://www.google.com/search?q=brittany+greb&client=firefox-b&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjbruaExOncAhXD34MKHesXC54Q_AUICigB&biw=1467&bih=709#imgrc=42amsgYOUZsTQM:
  3. That's all folks. Also have a few high grade GA and BA books in the other sales forum https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/topic/438029-high-grade-cgc-for-sale-high-grade-bronze-keys-and-a-nedor-war-cover/
  4. Shipping: Certified books, shipping is included within North America, ROW we split it. Raw books, include $10 for shipping within North America. ROW I will split with interested parties.  Who wins: Time stamp seals the deal as to who wins regardless of the form of communication (including PM, in the thread, text or phone conversation). A negotiation is not a deal until both sides have agreed on terms. If there is an unconditional posted (or communicated) it will trump all negotiations unless we have already both agreed to terms before the was posted. In that case, the will have been in vain. Except that it will give you street cred and look cool to passers by. No House Of Shame or Probationary members or any others of ill repute. Returns: I am considered a very good grader among my peers ( Here is a link to my kudos thread ) but since even CGC is inconsistent I will not guarantee a CGC grade. I will guarantee to be within one grade increment in either direction - so if I am calling the book a 9.4 it could go 9.2 or 9.6. If it falls outside of those parameters (and it does happen that they go in both directions), I will offer a refund. But I don't expect anyone to complain if I undergraded it. I will accept returns if item is otherwise not as described. Consider all books pressed. Payment: Paypal, bank wire, check or MO.
  5. That's it for this thread. I'll also shortly be listing two copies of ASM #300 in CGC 9.6 and CGC 9.8 in the CA selling forum. Link to ASM #300's for sale. Message me with any concerns and thanks for looking!
  6. Incredible Hulk #181 CGC 9.8 OWW (white flecks through Hulk logo are scanner artifact and not on the book) Asking $28,500
  7. Batman #227 CGC 9.8 OWW (white flecks under the Batman logo are scanner artifact and not on the book) Asking $6500 SOLD!
  8. America's Best Comics #4 CGC 8.0 OWW (WW2 War cover, tied for highest graded) Asking $2200 MOVED

  10. Oh, I know. I was just joking around about the typical stereotype (and the odd conversation you'd hear at a booth )
  11. Yes. Wife: "I can't believe you spent that much on a comic book!" as she shakes her head. Husband (thinking only, never to be said aloud ) : "I can't believe you spent that much on your nails / hair / shoes / purse / botox / jewlery" Each shakes their heads at the other.
  12. The discussion was about how some people are surprised that people spend a lot of money on comics, not about anyone needing to justify anything. Those same people that balk about how much money someone might spend on comics have no problem spending similar money on themselves in other ways without batting an eye. My point was merely that their perception is that it's a waste of money, when in fact it wasn't. Now we're debating all sorts of other things that were never germane to the OP's post.
  13. It should be a 3 story arc like LOTR and The Hobbit were. Then it would be worth seeing. Cramming all of that into one movie would make it as bad as BvS
  14. I think the guy bought 3 copies. Slabbed one and read the other two.
  15. Strictly from an economic perspective, expensive cars and drugs lose much of their value as soon as either is used.
  16. I'd agree. The vacation was a bit of a reach. But in general, my point was that 'the other half' often frown on collectibles because of the dollar amounts involved and mature collectors can generally recoup most if not all of the cost of their collectibles, which is not the case for many other types of indulgences.
  17. They know because they buy the T-shirts for $20 in a local clothing store. To be fair, a lot of kids know a song if you play it because they are exposed to much more music than we were as kids but they may not know the details if you quiz them on the bands. One night my friend told everyone we met that I was Robert Plant. They would Google him, nod and agree that I was him.
  18. Going to soon list a few high grade CA/BA keys as well as a really tough GA Nedor. Message me with any interest or questions. America's Best Comics #4 CGC 8.0 (tied for highest graded. Not a key book but a cool Golden Age 1942 War cover) Amazing Spider-man #129 CGC 9.6 Amazing Spider-man #300 CGC 9.6 Amazing Spider-man #300 CGC 9.8 Batman #227 CGC 9.8 (classic Neal Adams castle cover) Incredible Hulk #181 CGC 9.8
