There is a 9.8 on the bay for a lazy $2499.99 USD.

Love it when you put on a bid and no one else does.

ComicXposure.com -----anyone have any actual contact info?
Chipewah replied to Rich_Henn's topic in Comics General
They are the worst company to deal with which is a real shame as they have some awesome covers. I order 4 comics from them and it was a nightmare. It took over a year to get them and I only got them when I put a claim against them through internet watch dogs "Better Business Bureau". I created a Facebook page "Comicxposure exposed" and had over 20 people join in a matter of a week or two. I haven't done anything with the page in a long time as I eventually got the comics but still get requests to join the page to this day. Comicxposure are crooks, not two ways about it. Put a claim through Paypal for your money back now and order through Drew Bizz from eBay. I have heard good things about him and he seems to get copies from them easily enough. That is the best advice I can give you when it comes to them. -
Depending on when I am purchasing, the Australian $ can be worth anywhere as low as 68 cents to the US $ or as high as on par but that was a long time ago and didn't last long. At the moment, the Australian $ is getting about 72 cents to the US $.

I can remember ASM #300 being sold for as low as $300 only a few years ago. About 10x that now.

With the new Venom movie being announced not to long ago, I think this series will be fairly hot. I know there has been a lot of Venom covers of late and some are over them but as a Venom and Symbiote fan, I can't get enough of them. The price of the first Venom appearance (ASM #300) have jumped up substantially in the last year or so. I am looking forward to the rest of this series and the variants that go alone with it.

Edge of Venomverse I have seen this comic being advertised (Pre-sale) for a while now and there seems to be some interest in it. It is due to be released in a little over a weeks time (28 June). I am probably a little bias as I am a symbiote fan in general but some of the variant covers (Pretty much all of them) have been awesome. Mattina has done a majority of them but other artists have jumped on board as well. My favorite so far has been Mattinas 1:50
-
The 3 to 4 different variant covers is getting a bit old and expensive. Feels like a massive money grab/rip off if all that has changed is the coloring i.e. sketch, fade, copic, partial color/sketch, virgin cover. In saying that, there have been some really good ones of late.

My grail was Carnage USA #1 Ramos variant in "9.8". I think the last time I checked there were 8 on the CGC registry in "9.8" and only one or two more in graded condition. I looked and looked for ages and could only ever find it raw and for $100 to $150 upwards. I eventually saw one (CGC 9.8) on eBay for auction and hardly anyone had bid on it. I though this will sell for a couple of hundred at least and put in a bid of $105 just for a laugh. A few days later turns out that I won the auction. I can't tell you how happy I was. Turns out though that it isn't really a grail comic for anyone else but me. Hahahahahaha. I'm OK with that though because I own what is a grail to me

I purchased three sets of the four set Unknown Comics Jean Grey #1 Mattina combo almost a month ago. It cost me what you are offering for the set in "CGC 9.8" which is what I am ultimately after. I will be so dirty if I don't get at least one of each in "9.8" quality. I am now wishing I would have just waited to see this thread This was the first time in years that I have purchased raw comics unseen.

My Rosebud - Venom: Lethal Protector white cover
Chipewah replied to spideysenses's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
I can remember seeing a "9.8" on eBay many years ago for about $400. Wish I had have bought it. I remember seeing a lot of comics years ago for a lot less though. Wish I had a Delorean and could go back and buy them -
This is long over due, I have now done a number of purchases through Dre/BeachBum (For a couple of years now) and have been more than happy with all of them. If you are a "9.8 Purist", like most of us are, Dre can hook you up. I will continue to do business with him and recommend him to those who haven't yet.

I wold like to jump in here and give a big thanks to Curtis/Zacreth. I have purchased a few books from him now and have more with him. You couldn't find a better guy to deal with. I can't recommend him enough. Great seller and someone I am continuing to do business with.

The official J Scott Campbell Appreciation/Discussion Thread
Chipewah replied to jreezy's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
The Jean Grey covers are looking pretty good IMO. I think Cover A looks the best but is there also a 4th cover that isn't being shown, a convention only cover? A question for more experienced members; If you got one of the re-marked copies and had it graded, would it be a green label because it wouldn't have been witnessed by CGC? My guess is yes. I haven't purchased a raw comic in such a long time, a few years, until just recently. I purchased three sets of the Unknown Comics Jean Grey, Venomized Mattina covers in the hope of getting one "9.8" of each. I will likely do the same with the JSC Jean Greys but if i remember from back when I last purchased raw comics, the chances aren't good. If I don't get at least one "9.8" of each with these raw comics purchased I doubt I will buy raw again. I will just stick to purchasing them graded at "9.8" from here. -
Carnage was a spawn from Venom as well. I agree that there should be a first appearance notification for Toxin.
-
That is correct. There is never a mention on any of them that it is his first appearance.

This set is a hard one to complete. Just this week I completed it (All CGC 9.8) with #1 being the last one I needed. According to the census there are plenty of #1's out there but only a few #2's and about 4 each of #3 & #4. CGC 9.8 that is. This is correct but CGC hasn't put the first appearance of Toxin on them, only the first appearance of Patrcik Mulligan on #1 and that he becomes Toxin. #3 is the first full appearance of Toxin. I am currently trying to find CGC 9.8 quality books of his first solo series. I have #1 in CGC 9.8 and maybe a copy of #5 that could go close if pressed and graded but have not had any luck in getting the others in a grade close to that.
