  1. I've made my reservations and I'll be there the 6th!
  2. Well, alright. I disagree with the proof you demanded but agree with your point.
  3. Cannot be done since the first generation CGC cases used Borax which they do not now. Different plastics and different light reflection properties when placed on top of each other.
  4. Apparently I do not own any rare or valuable comics? I will submit this though. $148 in Gd according to Overstreet. 4 unrestored 1 restored
  5. Much like the books I posted this looks like is a beautiful book with nothing obvious contributing to the Brittle designation. I agree, the grading companies should have some kind of scale, like with restoration, to note extent and location of brittleness. I'm sure we would all look more kindly on a book with brittle corner(s) than a book that is completely separated at the spine with chips falling into the holder. As we all know, if you collect GA and are not made of money sometimes the only copy available to you is one with brittleness. It would be great to be able to have a better understanding of what you are buying.
  6. I have one brittle book that I bought because I've yet to see another one that was not brittl(USA Comics #8) and I have another book that I read before submitting which came back as slightly brittle (Archie #23). The Archie #23 did not have pieces falling off and there are not little pieces in the slab so ... e
  7. No love for Archie! Well, I do prefer Betty and Veronica.
  8. Then Reggie played a practical joke on you and, um, you might want to throw that water out.
  9. Welcome! While I own some high grade ducks I also own a few beaters so don't feel self-conscious. We love talking about Barks, his art, and the stories in addition to showing off our favorite books regardless of their condition. My collection runs the gambit from low grade to high and I love them all! For Looney Tunes stuff, look at this thread.
  10. I got a couple. So, so, close to completing the run (again ). Am I the only one who builds a run, sells it, and then builds it again a few years later?
  11. Accurate grading, fast shipping, and a nice guy! What more could you ask for?
