  1. I wanted to take advantage of the offer you made this month linked below. But I need to pass on a couple of things regarding my order. A. The online order system didn't automatically price this offer in so I entered the cc# but will need to be discounted back. B. I entered as "reholder" a book (cert #4104270001) that was mislabeled on my prior submission. Its label (which also should be the pedigree label Crippen D) was printed as Ernie Comics #25 (but its actually #23 or nn Nov. 1948). A couple of years ago it was you here on these boards I believe that said I could relabel for free - so also if you could be so kind to get that corrected on invoice as well. C. Lastly, Police Comics #102 is actually Promise Collection (not Pennsylvania) but the pull-down pedigree options is missing Promise from the selections. I also made note of this on the packing label. Thank you so much!
  2. Exactly, lol. I went 1 for 12, after getting routed on 0 for 4 a few weeks back. Nothing in my not so secret anymore little thin market niche was going down... I'm going to assume they were going after highest graded and/or pedigree copies...even Crippen's were poppin' and add a Pennsylvania (need one), forget about it... surely it wasn't the Plastic Man character? Indeed its making me question my ability to continue trying for the "Police Comic pedigree run", or if it might just be smarter to start bailing and taking the other side of the trade. This is the one I did get.
  3. Suzie #56 is the new Cindy #37, both along with Willie #15 and Pep Comics #64 are all the most keen with me.
  4. In the inaugural Overstreet Guide of 1970, Action #1 was valued at $300. A decade later, in the 1980 edition, its worth surged to $9800. Over the years, I've had the privilege of selling no fewer than 5 camp era Okajima pedigree comics on this board. I have not yet seen any of them for resale... I'm currently open to offers and trades. However, if there's no interest, I'll be considering submitting this book to Heritage.

  6. Happy T-minus one day to the 80th year anniversary of the signature on this this book. Fun fact, there are only 112 known "camp era" signed Okajimas, and only 6 of those are known to be at 9.2 or better.
  7. Police Comics #31 Okajima 4/8/44 "2x" Tied for top of census Police Comics #31 Okajima 4/8/44 "2x" Among a very small handful of the highest graded of all signed Okajimas Clear stand-out signiture with date and code 3 days from 80th birthday $9,000
  8. Per norms, first or pm gets it. 14 day return for any reason - you pay return shipping in condition as originally shipped. Pay by check, open to partial trades for wanted items in signature line (and a few other random needs) and/or robot covers. Shipping with insurance with signature. U.S. locations only. My Kudos
  9. Whew, what a read. 4 hrs later I'm thinking what a sad, fubar situation. Strangely enough reminded me a bit of the movie House of Sand and Fog (each bad decision just keeps incrementally leading to worse and worse outcomes) with a bunch of SBF FTX sprinkled in, all while set in comic book land. I had to go stream watch several episodes of Comic Book Men to regain my faith in humanity again. Really hope this situation turns itself around for all parties.
