  1. Agreed. My ASM 361 is better than @BITCOINSWAMI's ASM 361.
  2. At least Buzz got us two more names for the eBay blocked list 👍
  3. Yeah, this is for sure a put on. I guess we had some laughs while it lasted.
  4. Don't be so sure on ASM 129. Depending on your preference, low to mid grade copies can still be had for under $1000. While Hulk 181 will take some doing, there was a time several years back where I thought I might never own one either. And I've probably had a dozen pass through my possession since then. The future can bring good tidings. As for Batman 1...yeah, we're ALL screwed on that one.
  5. And you reminded me to check up on QuadrigaCX. Still not "all good": https://www.coindesk.com/judge-appoints-law-firms-to-represent-quadrigacx-customers
  6. Gabe's threads will most likely shock, amuse, horrify, and baffle you all at the same time. You might want some Old No. 7 in lieu of coffee.
  7. Based on JJ's track record with TFA and "Star Trek: Into Darkness", I'm quite worried that IX is going to just turn out to be Return of the Return of the Jedi. Which could still prove to be enjoyable, I loved TFA, and VIII has set a very low bar to overcome.
  8. Here's the problem with generically asking "what should I buy?" -- every experienced collector is going to immediately mark you as just another speculator trying to make a quick buck. And yes, that will elicit a lot of snide responses because that isn't what the majority of us are here for, nor are we going to do market research for you. Now, a question like "what are some good Spider-Man/X-Men/Wolverine stories that I should be on the lookout for this weekend?" will definitely get you places. Why would anyone label you a "thief" for putting a premium on your books on a site like eBay? People do it all the time. You're really going over the top on this. Just because dude was asking $250 on X-Force 11 doesn't mean he's trying to defraud someone. Its a comic book, not a bundle of junk mortgage backed securities falsely rated as AAA. What you see is what you get, and what you pay is what you think its worth. If an inexperienced speculator shows up and pays sticker price, lesson learned for Mr. Speculator. But odds are also good he's never going to sell it at that price based on the current market. If he's too inflexible in his ways and shuns negotiation, then the market is going to punish him in the end when he's stuck with a bunch of overpriced inventory.
  9. Yeah, no collector anywhere has ever thought of buying those books. You’re a real Albert Tesla there.
  10. Another In case you're wondering, I'll probably leave these up on the forum until the end of February, or when I get some extra free listings on eBay. Whichever comes first.
  11. If only this were real, I'd slab the hell out of some copies...
  12. Again, you say you have limited funds but are speculating on modern age funny books that might rise a bit due to move hype? Meanwhile, ex-US ETFs comprised of stocks from emerging and developed markets are both off their highs by almost 20%, are often offered commission free through various brokers, and pay a dividend. Which would I rather bet on...
  13. Based on the price tags in your photos and the $400 you said NM 98 cost, you're tally is just north of $1100. And that's without factoring at least three other books that will probably add at least a couple hundred $ more. If you have all these other much more important issues to deal with in your life, does this really seem like the best use of your time and ("I dont have a lot of") money?
  14. Cool story bro 👍 @BITCOINSWAMI, meet @Hollywood1892
  15. I think you’ve answered your original question then.
  16. Which character do you like more - Green Goblin or Black Cat?
  17. Always remember - drek is for suckers, trek is for future millionaires.
  18. NO AT AL!!! ONLY GEM+ MINT COMICS STARING JAMIE FOXX WILL BEEET THE STACK MARKET!! THEN WELL SEE WHOSE LAFING!!!
  19. “Tell me what to buy for $50!” ”I’ma buy this Spawn 1 before it goes up infinity thousand %! That’ll show you!” The term ‘know nothing know-it-all’ comes to mind...
  20. So buy one. Or do you need our blessing or something?
