  1. Welcome I personally don't prefer cents. The polar opposite is true of me , hence my earlier comment: ".....you will not find a bigger appreciator of them" (than me). But I've always flown in the face of popular opinion. Have you been reading my threads? Pop over to the Marvel UK Price Variant thread and post those FF's. We'd love to see them
  2. "Hi kav, it's Mrs Ryan here. Gotta say pal, you diagnose problems a bit like you draw women's backsides"
  3. *click* "Thank you for calling Marwood Towers. For pence variants, press one, for indicia variants, press two, for Australian variants, press three, for US price font variants, press four" *presses five for 'international editions' "I'm sorry, we do not recognise that selection. Please try again or press 6 to return to the main menu"
  4. Nine de nine, red balloons, floating in de summer sun. Nothing wrong with hairy armpits. Now a hairy backside.....that's a different matter.
  5. I'll go looky Me? Previously unaware? Never!
  6. "Neigh!" (Translation: "Keep your f****** hair on pal or I'll stick your antibodies up your f****** a**** mate!")
  7. Yup. Nice to find new ways to enjoy old comics
  8. Maybe. Not sure how a fish shadow puppet is going to help though.
  9. That's because an 8.5 is a lovely 8.0 and a 9.0 and 9.2 are lousy 9.4's. It's simple.
  10. If the recent Green Eggs competition taught us anything it is that the book would likely come back a 9.6.
  11. It's like 8.5 is good, because it's a really good looking 8.0. Whereas 9.0 or 9.2 is a below par 9.4. Nonsense isn't it.
  12. Weird isn't it. Ryan's on to something I think, judging by the reactions to the thread so far. Odd, illogical aversions
  13. Now that would be a better scale Ryan: C - Carp R - Rough E - Excellent A - Amazing M - Minty Polo
  14. Is it just the number? Does VFN/NM bother you in the same way?
  15. I was wondering why he went for 'Fire Department' over 'Pier A' and I found this online: "Pier A is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a designated New York City landmark. Opening in 1886 as the headquarters for the New York Harbor Police and Department of Docks, Pier A later served as the VIP entrance for European Ambassadors traveling to Ellis Island and as the main station for the Marine Division of the New York City Fire Department"
  16. Not my copy, but I added a pence version above - a bit more building again at the sides, and something on top of the telly. Some detail missing under the telly too. A bit less people at the bottom though.
  17. Money. An 8.2 wouldn't carry any premium over an 8.0. And there'd be stacks of them for most comics. Sky's the limit at the top end though, where your 9.9 might be the only one. I agree with the spirit of your post though.
