Rusty Staples - major defect?
c_mkv replied to c_mkv's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
Wow great sleuthing. I copied the words directly and letter by letter except for the spelling of centrefold as I’m Canadian eh. I’m not sure if it’s poor form to disclose where I saw the book as I don’t want to potentially upset the seller but it’s in an upcoming auction. It’s probably going to be expensive (at least in my world) so I always try to get notes to help me decide. it’s tempting as I otherwise like the book, I just don’t like the idea of rust. -
Rusty Staples - major defect?
c_mkv replied to c_mkv's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
You guys are beauties...needed to hear it/see it and appreciate the feedback -
I’ve avoided books with “Rusty Staples” but am looking at a key silver age 7.0 for my private collection. CGC notes indicate “staple rust with small stains at centrefold”. Wondering how much of a perceived negative this is by other, more knowledgeable collectors? Where would it rank against things like stamps, writing, marvel chipping, fingerprints, stains? Thanks in advance for your time

What is a reasonable price for an FF 48 in 7.0 ?
c_mkv replied to thewritestuff's topic in Silver Age Comic Books
If you haven’t seen it already, there’s a 7.0 for sale here -
Someone was inquiring about the cost of a 7.0 in the silver age threads

D.I.S.G.U.S.T.E.D WITH CGC SERVICE & PRODUCT
c_mkv replied to PBruce's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
I’ve felt your pain just not with CGC. Yours is a horror story that anyone reading your post will take note of. Also, it’s easy to criticize your use of language - we’ve all had moments of helplessness and frustration. Having said that, you need to figure out how to get out of this mess. Talk to them. CGC=good people. Cheers -
I’m a fan of xmen also but there are multiple copies (no disrespect intended, especially to buyer or seller) of 6.5’s for much less available online. Am hoping it’s the Kirby sig that pushed it or maybe something to do with HA auctions somehow fetching higher prices? Just seems a bit much...but what do I know.

I can’t quite figure out this hobby just yet...0.5 Sold for $1350 but a 4.0 sold here for $2500 a couple weeks ago. I’m going back to collecting marbles.

A 6.5 OW sold for just under $13 on CC. I know the book is doing well but this has to do with Kirby's sig, right? https://www.comicconnect.com/bookDetail.php?id=772399

ETERNALS #1? Buy or sell? Will it last?
c_mkv replied to Dogsupreme's topic in Bronze Age Comic Books
So I’ve reached out to the seller ssking what his motivation was. He declined to post it himself but was fine if I shared his reply, which was: New message from: pramood123 (87) I am collector and I was interested in buying a 9.8 copy myself knowing it is not that rare. I purchased one for $400 and one for $500. However, Many sellers cancelled my order after I made payment saying the item was out of stock and I know they all lied. They put it on sale later and I noticed few new ebayers doing shill bidding on them. I own a 9.6 copy myself that i bought before the rumors came out. I felt I need to make buyers aware of these false marketing tactics. My intention is not to downgrade the book but to point out the greed and devious business practices. Tow days ago, one comic bookseller (Sean Husvar of Sleeping Giant Collectible based in Buffalo, NY) made payment on two of my Eternals #1 CGC 9.8 listings even thought he knows they are not for sale! He lives in Buffalo which is 8 hrs away from my place. He purchased and paid for two of Eternals # 1 listing even though my listing says it is not for sale and available for local pick up only. He was one of the seller who had CGC 9.8 copy listed on his sleeping giant website and took it off after I placed the order. Its people like him that made me do it. Hope I answered your questions. -
Not sure where to post so I thought I’d try here (sorry if it’s in the wrong forum). HA has an x1 7.0 (trying to get into a 7.0-7.5 from a 5.5) that I was looking but the cover seems faded...especially across the top “X-men”. Could this possibly be a poor scan?

What do I know.but in my opinion and If I was keeping it, yes. If you're looking to sell I'm not sure. -
