Then dealers should kindly bring along more copies? I looked for Godzilla at every single dealer I stopped by over four days at NYCC. Only one had more than at most a handful of issues, and those copies were mostly mid grade fillers. Most had none at all. No, I don’t ever look for 9.8 candidates only. I do look for VF or better.
I’m sure eBay will provide many issues I’m looking for , but I like to get them here or there at shows. I have #1-12 , and those are the issues I mainly see when a dealer does happen to have any at all.
