Missed this one. Need to tighten up my searches.

Picked up a really sharp Secret Wars #9. Same seller had a #4 that I missed out on. 
        
 

Are there any Secret Wars #1 with the MJ insert?  I’ve seen examples of most of the other Secret Wars books but not #1. 

Still slowly chipping away.

Funny story. Sent to CGC, got it back...

...without the label noting it was a Mark Jewelers insert. 

They did same thing to the one I posted on the previous page (8).  The one in the pic is the reholder to correct the label. 

Question about determining the purchase cost of comics whose later sales are reflected in on a 1099-k from eBay.  Say a 10 comic lot is purchased for $1000.  Is it acceptable to assign a flat $100 purchase expense to each comic in that lot or is the seller obligated to prorate the cost of each book based on market value when some books in the lot have more value that others?  

Interested in opinions on whether this issue is a genuine MJ insert or owner added.  The bottom staple has one prong sheered off.  Not sure how this would happen unless it was bent open and broke when being bent back closed.  Also the insert is a matted card stock and not glossy print like the other MJ inserts I own. Thanks!

Now there's a great example of what can happen when 3 or 4 Mark Jeweler enthusiasts are all going for the same comic book.   

That last second action was crazy wasn’t it. My bid didn’t even register! 

Wonder if it was a boardie who snagged this:

Is it odd that CGC didn't lay out the grade? for each cover? like they normally do? 

I had that happen several years back and had to send back as ME for a reholder to get a corrected label. 

Let me know when the Rogue One #1’s start showing up. 😁

Thanks @DR.X for another very fun week before Christmas and a very cool and generous prize!!!!

Thanks.  ~75% of the PROPS goes to @Still Only 35c

I kind of like the round, to me it fits better on the Spidey Covers, but I do prefer the Starburst.

I have both a sweat-shirt and t-shirt with the Still 35c in Starburst. Forget where online I found them about 7 years back.

Enjoying this thread but I prefer this Starburst. 😁

Disappointing start to the year.  Kudos to MyComicShop’s customer support team though. My search continues !

Second question.  I've collected 30 cent and 35 cent variants for years.  I was wondering if any of these have the MJV in them.  I've done a google search and found no info.  Thanks all!

I don’t think price variants were distributed at military bases and would not be candidates for the Mark Jeweler insert.  Who know what could happen by error at the printer.  Try asking in the price variant thread.  

Not sure how this got so beat up sitting in a box for 39 years
