  1. That's a good point, 181 is currently experiencing a substantial traffic jam in pricing with midgrade books. But if its a copy for long term holding, maybe you still roll the dice and see how things shake out down the line.
  2. It's hard to tell from your photos because of all the reflection, but from the notes it sounds like a good presser could get at least another .5 out of this book.
  3. The guy is modifying his listings to try and stay ahead of what is being called out in this thread. I'd wager good dollars that if anyone actually contacted this guy about the P&C service, the press would be "in the shop for repairs" or something. Its just an attempt at covering for his magical upgrades. You'll also notice that the additional caveat has been added that the books are original owner from either "my wife's father or from my personal collection!" To me, both are a clear acknowledgment of his knowledge that he's committing mail and wire fraud with these listings.
  4. We're down to Giant Size Spider-Man 4, let's see if we can get it sold! How about we reduce it to...$62 shipped.
  5. Don't worry, you'd want those two hours of your life back anyway. In brief summary - if you took the 1980s, tossed them in a blender for 30 seconds, then threw the contents at the wall, you'd have Rise of Skywalker.
  6. So he had to check with his wife about buying a comic off of eBay that her father bought off the rack and never read and stored all these years....
  7. Let's see what the viewing public says about 10% off listed price on the remaining two books.
  8. Oh, now we’re just trying to wound each other.
  9. There are a couple scenes in Hot Shots where I can literally laugh myself to tears. Lloyd Bridges is the real star in that movie. If only History of the World was on next...
  10. On a lighter note, Starz counterprogrammed TBS’ showing of TLJ with Hot Shots and Spaceballs.
  11. Seems totally legit. I might even bid $1050, but not a penny more.
  12. And ROS is basically the equivalent of watching TLJ for 24 hours straight.
  13. Credit to @Rich_Henn for the best wisdom I’ve heard in regard to vintage books that are supposedly super high grade - “If it’s really that nice, why isn’t it in a slab already?”
  14. The world needs more PGX “authenticated” Ditko signatures.
