  1. That book just sold for $26,290. How much longer before the sky falls? Damn...
  2. I hope it doesn't skew the GPA too badly. It likely won't be a 4.5 for long.
  3. This book is at $24,500 now... for a chance at a grade bump. Lordy...
  4. Well damn... I was gonna bid on this, but somebody must be pretty confident this had upgrade potential. http://www.comicconnect.com/bookDetail.php?id=689896
  5. I'm guessing this is common damage on comics that haven't been bagged or boarded. A piece of the bottom left spine (and occasionally the top left) gets "worn" away from sitting in a box with no bag or board to protect it. How does this factor in when grading a book? If it weren't for this spine corner wear, this Ghost Rider 1 would be at least a 7.0, but I'm wondering if this wear drops it to a 5.0 or lower? How have you guys seen this type of damage affect a grade? Thanks!
  6. Somebody didn't read the thread before they posted....
  7. Comic book first appearances are like trying to learn the English language. There are hard and fast rules, but so many exceptions that it makes you question your own sanity.
  8. My guess is SC30 gets more attention because Aquaman is on the cover. I prefer Adventure 260 for the same reasons stated above. I also think it's the first time he's referred to as Arthur Curry (?) I suppose a technical argument could be made that Adventure 229 is his first Silver Age appearance, in that the Silver Age began in October 1956.... but the real definitive SA changes didn't begin until 260.
  9. A nice looking CGC 2.5 sold for only $7,750 on Ebay I wish I would've bid on it now... http://www.ebay.com/itm/CGC-2-5-Amazing-Fantasy-15-1962-Lot-184-/182312693559?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&nma=true&si=U2jYJnwyUKKkBWwfq3PxX8ZpTIo%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc
  10. There's a guy selling the C for 25 bucks on Ebay. Honestly that's a pretty small markup so I snagged a copy myself. Which is bizarre when you think about it. After shipping/fees, he's either taking a loss or breaking close to even at best.
  11. He may have got wind of the concern and posted a new pic in the listing *shrug*
  12. Unfortunately if that looks like Iron Man to you, the next thing you may want to read shouldn't be a comic book. Hurry I'm gonna hafta disagree on this one. Dude looks like Iron Man. Disco Iron Man
  13. I want one of them UF4 variants Stupid lack of Five Below stores around here...
  14. I turned in a WalkThru at SDCC on Thursday. Got the Shipped/Safe notice today! I also requested a scan. Does anyone know how/where I go to access it?
  15. Anyone mention Daredevil #380 yet? I can't find that damn thing in the wild anywhere.
  16. Alternate Title: Newbie Kudos Thread! Thanks in advance for the feedback!
  17. Made my first ever forum purchase from Gino - X-Men #4 CGC 4.0 Communication was great, shipping fast and packaging was bullet proof. Thanks for the great book!!
  18. Wait until The Walking Dead is finally cancelled. Those issues will drop eventually.
