  1. Nice, love the optimism...or is it. Im going to be in deep thought about this now for the rest of the night.
  2. If you were to state comic values in terms of a year, in general what year do you think the market value of silver age comics would revert to in the event of a market crash? Just looking for a one word answer (such as 2018 or 2007 etc) Just for fun.
  3. haha you may not be wrong about Giganto's eyes. Yea, I just feel like he's staring at me, like a green demented cookie monster. The only reason I have this book is because of the condition, it dictated the price obviously. I do plan on upgrading if I can find a steal on a clean 1.0 or restored copy.
  4. Hello, I recently purchased a pretty beat up copy of FF1. As you can see, someone drew little eyeballs on Giganto as he's battling fantastic four. Strange as it may seem, this bothers me more than the other condition issues of the book. I was wondering if i took white out to the little eyeballs, would that be considered restoration? I know this book is beyond restoration help, but i just don't want any chance of a purple label if i ever choose to get it slabbed, (which could be never anyway). Thanks for your help.
  5. 3.0....i would press just for presentation reasons.
  6. I recently did one month of Go Collect, and have now started one month of GPAnalysis. The big advantage with Go Collect is that it links to pictures of the actual books sold, so you can see the books. Additionally there are multiple investment speculation articles published per day, the interface lets you link your collection (including pics) to the site, you can see a graphical representation of books by grade, its just a much better presentation. The GPAnalysis does some of the same thing but not in a visual pleasing way. Plus the graphs are locked in the the last 17 years of data or so, which means you see a consistent slow growth and then shoot up when movies came out. You can't set the dates to have the graph represent a specific time frame on GPAnalysis. Also GPAnalysis is finicky on the search engine. If you don't put the exact title in, it returns 0 results. Also its a two step process, first you have to enter the title, then search the issue number. With Go Collect you just type Avengers 1, and boom you have what you're looking for. Also Go Collect offers hot issues by Golden, Silver, Bronze, ranks them every month by sales volume. GPAnalsys doesn't do this. It's night and day for me, GO Collect is much better. And it's half the cost.
