Spidey 62

I would ask, though, who would want to return a blue universal for a purple or green? No matter to keep or sell.

From PPTSS 108 - not named, but you know who.

This has got "angry girlfriend" written all over it.

And also regarding Spidey (from ASM 10) -

^^^^^Staying with the above post^^^^^ I am about 85% happy with what I have. I have never overspent for a page, but also never over reached for one either. I am a budget collector. I would like a nice 80's Spidey page. I think that would round me out.

Always liked both these covers.

I looked but could not find anything...got a link?

It is signed, witnessed and off to Florida. Hoping for a 7.0 outer and 8.0 inner. Love the gold pen and thoughtful placement.

It was a bit of a strange situation. I think we will take the books, but the $ is a little fluid right now. Hoping to pin it down tomorrow.

Yes that is the plan, thanks.

I am thinking of getting my ASM 66 double cover signed by John Romita Sr., but which is the right cover to get the sig on?

It's about a 7.0

Well, hmmmmm. Not what we had been told, is about the best I can say. The silver age content was waaaay over stated or misremembered and there was much indie drek and 90's. There were some keys and we will make our money back and then some but this was not a honey hole. Also, storage and condition were factors. The highlights are SME 15, Eternals 1,4, ASM 238, 252, NM 87, 98, Star Wars 1. No high grade books, and not much over 9.0. I still have 8 boxes to go through but there is a lot of run filler and I am not a dealer looking to sell $1-2 books.

Dealer websites where the inventory is off. I have had several instances where art shown and for sale with a price isn't actually available. I also had one time where I was told the art was sold only to look through the same dealer's books at a show and see the art page there in front of me with a higher price.

Granted, it is not their "responsibility" but wouldn't it be helpful if cgc put "reprint" or some such thing in the note area? Do they think that everyone would know because there are no credits listed?

Doing the math, I am sure you are closer than me. I certainly will not be spending $20,000. Even my half, at $10,000, or close to it, is more than I would be willing to spend. Hopefully, I will come away with some solid stuff.

I am going to look at a collection in a few days, supposedly about 5000 books, large portion being 1960's, and I believe superhero stuff. Fingers crossed for some good stuff. I haven't bought too many collections but a friend and I have been looking to buy some to pad our personal stash and also to make some money selling. If this is a honey pot, it will probably cost a couple grand, anyway. Will be using some of the advice in this thread, offer wise.

Is there a generally accepted rate per card throughout the industry, or does it vary wildly and Topps is at the bottom? I used to collect Family Guy, Star Trek, and LotR and would always hope to get a sketch card. Some of them would go for hundreds on the bay.

My only 2 Sal pages, and I am happy to have them.

With so many 1st apps way outside of my comfort zone, 2nd apps of major Spidey villains have become doable for me. I know since I have been buying, they have escalated. My ASM 17 (2nd Green Goblin) has almost doubled since I got it here on the boards. Not movie hype escalation, but I'm happy with it.

Time for another sticker service? CCA (comics centering authority) or some such foolishness.

Looks like a well read and cared for copy.

Where are people hearing this poppycock!? Don't know if this if a BS rumor site, but it was also reported on newsarama, although that could have been also based on a rumor. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/ustv/a28803673/marvel-peggy-carter-captain-america-what-if/&ved=2ahUKEwjC6-Pft5zkAhUCmlkKHan9CGIQqOcBMAJ6BAgEEAM&usg=AOvVaw0Nwp6Pu6OwaMjYtC5Tl19I

Really like that cover. Notice how the one cop is pointing his gun at the other? Not very tactical!y safe !
