  1. Damn my aging eyes! Nice....a shave and a haircut for the buyer.
  2. Another example of an artist who was in reach for quite awhile. Now? The worlds gone mad 😱
  3. As grape ape gets up in age, it takes him at least a cognac and a nap before typing more then 1 sentence. So it’s refreshing to bang out a few paragraphs and have Vodou edit those words down to Blah Blah Blah. I don’t know if that’s what I wrote but it’s what I heard the voice in my head tell me to write. Vodou? Are you the voice...... in my head 🦍? 😱
  4. MIKE ZECK PUNISHER PAGE I knew the snipers waiting in the weeds. Sat there $3900 for awhile.... LIVE bidding was grueling kept thinking it was going to end sooner.... DRIP DRIP DRIP HAMMER. $36,000 w BP I spoke with the owner who was shopping it briefly before the auction. He was taking offers. I knew what he paid for it. It’s an impressive page and one I wish I could’ve added to the ape cave. Congrats to the new owner. That mini series stands out from the eighties.
  5. Frazetta’s apes getting respect. The 🍇 can appreciate that. 🦍 🦍 + Frazetta = 🏦
  6. Art guy can’t be car guy also buddy. You should only throw your money into one bottomless pit. 💰 🖼 🚘 🕳
  7. Wow no claims! no levels!! no one dressing up in costumes! Just excellent art priced to sell. Check it out. Mitch won’t put a clown suit on 🤡 and wear big flappy shoes. But he finds real quality art for the collectors. NO....stop 🛑 trying to live stream him.. Claim1Mitch will get you nowhere.❌ But Mitch’s friendly and professional website, or a quick phone call will help you add quality art to your empty wall space. grrape + ape 🦧 🦍
  8. Grant be realistic. •Which one do you have the best chance of winning? • sounds like Saturday is “the one” but you’ll kick yourself if you don’t get it and pass on trying for Thursday. I would determine what I’d be happy paying for the Thursday page and go for that—- If I don’t win them Saturday is still open Hey I hope you win something Some of these pieces are deceptively low right now ( or we’re about to get our first push back on pricing?nah!). Good luck.
  9. Yeah JJ11 that MS5 is special but you have to print money to compete at that level today.
  10. Just show up day of. If they don’t let you enter raise your voice and say, “do you know who I am?” 😊
  11. Part of me wishes I could’ve seen the treasure but mostly I’m happy to have arrived after the bodies were removed.
  12. A “deal” was made for a Millie the Model 2x page at $195 down from $295.
  13. + 1 I have a buddy who brings up “the ones that got away” every time we talk. He comes up In therapy now more then Ole Grape + ape’s mother in law
  14. Any chance in the 1st round of claiming a Sal Buscema floating heads page for $595 or less?
  15. Start by buying small purchases. Buy art from artists or artist representatives only. Many times artworks are not signed/autographed. Or could be forged. Some artists sign art simply because a fan put it in front of them. Doesn’t always mean they did significant work or any work at all. Signatures in and of them selves mean virtually nothing as proof of authenticity. COA’s as well virtually useless. Over time you must study and learn the artwork of artists you like. In the meantime buying from artists and their reps is the best way to see examples you might like to purchase safely.
  16. Marvel Spotlight 5 first Johnny Blaze and Shang Chi’s first appearance are just a few of the gems on this CAF page. Excelsior!!!!
  17. That’s absolutely massive cool Bolland Dredd. Well done Malvin.
