  1. Only KNOWN cover from the first run series, so it's not exactly that you're spoilt for choice, is it?
  2. Insurance is a sea of red tape, so good luck with that one! Personally, I always opt for a Global Express-type delivery with a three-day delivery window that is fully-trackable and requires a signature from the recipient.
  3. I imagine fees for an IWT vary from bank to bank (and as I don't keep records of past transactions, I can't help you on that one, sorry). Your best option is to consult your own bank directly for further advice. Fees are also involved in overseas transactions with Paypal. Your opening question was about the safest way to accept an overseas payment, not which method was the most cost-effective!
  4. I live in the UK. For high-end sales I ask for an International Wire Transfer. For lower-end transactions I'd only accept a Paypal payment if I know the buyer (or know he or she has a good reputation in the OA community).
  5. This is me responding to me (don't ask . . .). Would have thought the Cap cover had gone for much higher than the $77,675 hammer price. A one known cover from the original run??? Any Cap fan worth his salt should have gone all-out to secure that little prize . . . Terry Doyle (making his new ID fully-known, as he's not a fan of anonymous posting)
  6. Thanks. I have been in contact with CGC about this problem but haven't quite figured out what needs to be done (probably down to my stupidity). Fact is. my old account was registered when I had another computer and different e-mail account. My old e-mail address and password is now forgotten by me, so every time I tried to log back into the system I couldn't progress any further. Retaining my old account is not too important in the grand scheme of things as my new board ID is fine for posting new stuff. Anyways, thanks for the advice, appreciated!
  7. Hi Terry Doyle here (I somehow managed to lose my old account with the CGC re-shuffle and have had to create a new one). Thanks to the weakening £ against the $, I've figured now is a good time to take advantage of the exchange rate and shift a few more high-end covers from my collection (all for the sole purpose of consolidating my retirement funds!). I've posted a separate list of 4 x 1960 Large Art covers (currently on consignment with Mike Burkey) over in the Marketplace forum. A fifth (Steve Ditko) cover has already found a new owner. Head over there for more details, if you feel so inclined, thanks. Terry
  8. Hi Terry Doyle here (I somehow managed to lose my old CGC account in the re-shuffle and have had to create a new one!). I currently have 4 vintage covers on consignment with Mike Burkey (the exchange rate between the USA and UK works in my favour, so now's a good time to sell some more high-end items from my collection). I actually consigned 5 covers with Mike and 1 cover pretty much sold straight away. Here are the 4 covers: CAPTAIN ATOM # 80 cover (1966) by Steve Ditko (with Rocke Mastroserio inks) - $45,000 NUKLA # 4 cover (1966) by Steve Ditko (with Sal Trapani inks) - $35,000 CAPT. SAVAGE & HIS LEATHERNECK RAIDERS # 2 (1968) by Ayers (with Syd Shores inks) - $20,000 (great HYDRA origin issue and a stunning cover image) SEA DEVILS # 25 (1965) by Howard Purcell - $20,000 I've already sold a Ditko cover, separate to the above list, so this presents a good opportunity to score one of the other two remaining 1960s Ditko superhero covers (which very seldom surface for sale). All covers are LARGE ART examples. Potentially interested buyers should discuss directly with Mike. Thanks for looking! Terry Doyle
