  1. X-Factor 15=1st Horsemen cameo X-Factor 19=1st full Horsemen of Apocalypse Interestingly enough, neither is specified in the new OPG.
  2. Those are rare books indeed. I waffled on a couple auctions and ended up with a pair of Green Lantern 87's as my only buys on the day. I've convinced myself they will go Stewart over Hal Jordan as GL in the upcoming JLA movie.
  3. ....they had $2 each on the boxes. I didn't quote any price but I guess if paying what someone is asking is taking advantage of them then...guilty. Actually should have been $64 because 1 had 32 books but she said $60 since I was the first person to look at the boxes.....I guess I really took advantage of her for not saying...no,no...I must pay the $64 Ya did great. In sure some of us, myself included, are a little jealous. Hell, if you wanted to be a real you coulda just walked away with 2 1st Deathloks, Wolvie 1, 1st Black Cat, 2 1st Rouges and Death of Elektra for $14. At least ya had enough class to overpay a little on the others Thanks....surprisingly the Spidey #408 is one of the best of the lot. I have had many, many multiples of all the others in the bunch but don't think I have had the Spidey variant before....it is pretty limited. I didn't catch the 408. Very nice! Out of curiousity was this show here in the tri-state (Ohio, KY,IN) area? Judging by your name Id guess you operate in some capacity here at the University in Cincinnati. Show was in Indianapolis....I almost attended U of C back in 1980 but at the last moment decided on Ball State in Muncie IN....which I now happen to teach and coach at the high school in Muncie and like U of C our mascot is the Bearcat....thus Bearcatcoach! Good man! I'm a fellow MAC alumnus from Toledo. Nice job with your books!

  6. I've bought a few books from him and he is pretty good. Raw grades are all over the map, even from experienced graders. If you don't like the book or grade assigned, regardless of who is selling it, you should move onto the next one on your list. Keep in mind a 5.0 is halfway between a rag and a mint copy. That book seems to fit the bill. 5.0 doesn't seem like much of a stretch. If you see someone calling books like that 3.0's you should try to buy out their collection.
  7. Great bargain on the Avengers Annual. Had I not been running my virtual mouth on another thread I'd have been all over that.
  8. Nice buy. That Jack Kirby fella sure knew how to work a pencil.
  9. Lots more bullets where that came from, Good Sir.
  10. I thought you only sold to addicts? Clearly, "fatchocobo0" has a stronger addiction to chocolate than comics.... . It's really sad when you get hit with that excuse and the buyer has an Illinois address.
