  1. Arent ACG, and certain EC, maybe some Harveys still attainable? Do you think some non keys will become keys? We've seen it in the past happen
  2. It's the 52nd appearance of Dylan. One day this book will be more recognizable than Hulk 181! This is awesome!
  3. AHAHAHAHAHHA. No CGC was right. YOU stole it, ya thief obviously. Hey give it back, we know you're hiding it over there
  4. Bob. That's a very astute observation of you. Obviously SkyPinkBlu was trying trick everyone and hope the buyer did not notice and quietly hide CGC's mistake in a public forum because NOBODY would notice with only thousands of people watching even though she has done tons of transactions and been fine all of those other times, oh wait, no it's just clearly human error. #Bobhatesmebecauseofthecharacterlabels for the record CGC is usually correct a very high percentage of the time. we all make mistakes
  5. What are you talking about? nobody wants to see skeletons attacking a girl LOL
  6. That's a full circle of events though: Prices go up, you buy BECAUSE prices are gonna go up. Why does this market keep going up? there's most of the the non-comic investment factors but these seem to accelerate faster
  7. That's true. For the rich, there's only so many places to put money. But there's tons of new entrance in which is good. I wonder if some of the mega keys have multiplied because of oligopoly ownership which is not innately bad but it takes away power of the people. ECs arent those cheap within pre-code especially sci fi? Look at planets in high grade now and before I start riot, sci fi is not the same as horror but there is carry over
  8. Warning. the following content may be extremely scary and graphic. viewer discretion is advised
  9. I meant grading what I thought the book would come back from CGC as
  10. Yeah. Buying an almost pedigree level collection, then finding out everything has colored pencil on the spines but for NO reason books were 9.0-9.4, removing it, but clearly not enough, then getting blue labels by accident (should have been purple labels) and then thinking the resto wasnt additive, getting blue labels, meaning well, naively putting them up and then having an entire mongul of internet trolls who would never say stuff to your face talk smack and create conspiracy theories about how you tick. X-men 12 is 7.5 AFTER all ct removed. I'd want Tec 27 in 9.4 all day
  11. 8.5? if those edge creases are pressable and non color breaking, more 9.2 9.4
  12. Wow. You're gonna spend more energy talking about ME? Gee Beige, you shouldn't have. I'm flattered thx. you guys are great
  13. Long Live: Giggle #3, the 42nd app of Dylan, yes that Dylan. 9.8s are going for $2500 9.6s $1200 8.0s are 50k
  14. Carl Burgos the guy who worked on Marvel Comics #1 was SUPPOSED to go on it. Thankfully he did not
  15. I love it when people talk about my Giggle 3. We should start a thread about it-that book was nothing until I came around. Maybe one day more people will have heard about it then Hulk 181 and it will be a KEY issue! This is great thx guys!
  16. I think you hit the nail on the head
  17. I apologize in advance if this post is not 100% factual as I am just learning about this incident now I have sold multiple CGC graded comics to Adrian, and in MY experience Adrian was very nice, professional, and ethical (Top City Comics) I have also had many conversations with Lee (Polonsky) and found him to be very nice, professional and ethical. Both prior to this incident-not taking sides, purely stating my opinion Adrian: It is wrong to not take care of a customer quickly. I think this scrutiny on these boards comes from that. Had you shipped them out quickly and honored the transaction even a week late, nobody would be saying anything. I really say this from the warmest of regards. I get what you are saying about Polonsky asking for a lot of prices and being picky. He is picky. It's your right to deal with who you want. But at the same time it's not fair to justify a delay because a customer is more difficult or pickier than average whether it's legitimate no marvel chipping guys or non legitimate partial refund extortionists. You can't hold someone else's money with no intent to fill the transaction. That's stealing-literally borrowing without asking. To recap, give faster service and if a deal is not happening give them back their money IMMEDIATELY. The customer doesn't have to be right it's the user experience. Take it from me. I changed my user experience on DylanAuctions BIG TIME. I used to have 1 or 2% complain about grading when I used CGC standards and yes to the haters occasionally stuff got missed Giggle 3 etc. I grade so tight now, that basically nobody complains. Had 4 returns in the last 6 months which is nothing-considering my volume. 3 guys changed their mind, and 1 the guy didnt think it could be a poor or fair, but I said ok no problem and he got his money back very quickly AND shipping. Polonsky: work on making your handwriting more neat. I know had to lol-if he's right, that only made things more complicated and I know you HATE complications so it's YOUR prerogative to make it as easy as possible on your end. Maybe-he's totally wrong about it-I'd love to see a picture of this check .
  18. I'm glad you took that photo and didnt crash
  19. I find people who sell these morally reprehensible but if they want to buy with me I have no problem. If you think this is bad see the Michael Jordan Rookies being made in Mexico and China by the tens of thousands and being sold on ebay as "reprints" oh I found it at a garage sale bla bla bla, yeah right. Just bad for the hobby all around
  20. This has something to do with managed payments. I don't agree with it but just sell that stuff somewhere else. You don't make the rules, and it's not your playground. Maybe we can make a boards section to sell that stuff, maybe that violates a rule, I have no idea
  21. Either a reduced grade by approximately a point, but could and should be qualified
