  1. Here's a pic of a 1st print I found on the interwebs...
  2. FYI, that's not a first print. First prints are large sized books (the first four issues are), and are a three tone cover (black, white, blue). Maybe a 7.5 for me.
  3. Closing and moving to feeBay (at a much higher price). Contact me directly on this one if needed.
  4. Still lots of interest, but no takers. I have had several partial trade offers, and I am open to that if the right one comes along. However, I am still preferring a cash deal. Last price drop before trying other venues. Price is now $795.
  5. I had some folks inquiring by PM, but no deal. Let’s try a price drop and a weekend bump. Now $825
  6. Book is $875. I have it at 3.0. I wanted to say 3.5, and it might be. Here is what I see: Blunted corners with a tiny piece on the top right FC folded and in jeopardy. Small spine splits top and bottom. Bottom is bigger going up to the bottom of the text box. Top is 1/4 to 1/2”. Some slight discoloration at bottom edge FC along with some slight staining going up to Supes' right foot. Indention the right of Supes through Supergirl’s chest. Two small pieces missing BC along with a left edge tear of about 1” and a dog eared lower corner. Ancient remnants of tape on BC and also very slightly affecting last page. Soiling bottom BC. Supple pages, but some edge tanning. No brittleness. All complete and attached. I think it presents nicely. Lots of pics coming so I’ll put them in spoilers in the second post. Happy to provide more pics upon request.
  7. RULES: PayPal is easiest, but I'll take a check or MO if that's what you want. US shipping is paid by the buyer at my cost, and I will work with the buyer for the best option. I prefer USPS Priority or FedEx. Insurance is required (at least at 50% of the sale price), but I will work out the exact amount with the buyer. I will ship outside the US. I'm not trying to make any money on shipping, so I am happy to work with you, but 100% of the cost will be on you. I'll accept returns, but shipping is on the buyer unless I made an error in the listing. First “I’ll take it” in the thread wins, and those would trump any ongoing PM negotiations.   No buyers from the bad lists. Let me know if I missed anything.
  8. I happened to see a completed eBay auction for a TMNT #1 5th print "error" book. The error is that the pages are numbered out of order in the second story (1, 2, 3, 5, 4,...). I checked my copy, and mine are out of order. Does anyone know the scoop on this? Is this an error, or is this just how all of them are printed? I am not personally an "error" collector, so I would probably flip mine for a standard version if there is upside for me.
