    That’s a very impressive list!

    I saw trademarkcomics post after the fact so I knew the cancellation was forthcoming. I put MCS at the top for quality and service. They were my first back issue purchase way back in the late 70’s from a lone star comics mail order catalog.

    Beat to the punch again. I purchased Saturday night 8:41 so guess MCS didn’t pull their listing from eBay when you purchased it from their web site. The good news is this frees up $120 toward a uniquecomics octuple cover book! 😂😂😂

    That’s an exceptional looking 8.5!

    The date stamp on the back cover adds to the coolness. One of a kind. Thanks for sharing!!

    I really hate posting after such amazing 35 cent books! but ….. Recent pickups over the past few months. The doctor strange from MCS was not listed as price variant. I like getting books from them. It’s the best looking 6.5 I’ve ever received.

    Not counting the Frankenstein dc’s that uniquecomics is churning out do we see double covers on comics that are less than a decade old? I talked to owners at my lcs about it. They have 2 locations in operation since 2018 and they have never pulled a DC from new comics nor has any customer made mention of purchasing one from them.

    Would like you opinions on my Secret Wars 8. This is the best surviving of my childhood spinner rack purchases still in my possession. Debating whether or not to send off for c&p and green label. Zeck signed for me at Baltimore several years back. Thanks!!!

    Of all three Marvel Darth Vader series, this was the only additional print that had eluded me. Nothing special but I’m still happy to have picked it up!

    Recent Addition. A Secret Wars MJ set might be a fun one to tackle.

    Just in! 16 is a lower grade but the rest are pretty sharp. 15 has a star stamp on the inside of the front cover which I think is cool.

    First one I’ve seen with the stamp on the inside of the cover

    This was my thinking as well as I give thought to how I will liquidate my modest collection one day. Let’s take my ASM run of 175-400. Is it correct to assume I would make more by selling 194, 210, 238, 252, 300, 316 and 361 (and maybe a few others) separately on eBay than I would by selling the entire run to a dealer?

    Nice find!!! I’ve discovered a handful of mark jewelers inserts over the years but never a double cover. I’d like to see posts of DC’s were current owner pulled off the spinner or purchased directly from a LCS.

    I’m in this camp.

    I wonder when spotting a MJ candidate based on staple placement or star stamp, what the odds are the insert was removed? 🤔 Maybe most stayed intact. It’s not like anyone actually bought the jewelry or needed to rip them out to get a cool tattoo.

    Mail call! Thanks again @DR.X and @skypinkblu !!!!

    There is a very informative discussion on the staple topic starting on page 29 of this thread. The SME appears to be @trademarkcomics . I have found myself paying close attention to staple placement ever since!

    Gotta love the “surprise” MJ inserts. Please share the pics.
  23. icp004
    This!!! Selling just seems so daunting though.
  24. icp004
    Thanks!!!

    Interesting Question. I have seriously considered selling off my collection and getting the best Star Wars #1 35 cent price variant it would buy. Unfortunately it would not be anywhere close to a 30k copy.
