John, you are truly a comic nerd and a wierdo comic collector fanatic. Congrats!

I was wondering how long it would take before this book hit the market as a 9.8

 

I'd have to confirm with the previous owner, but I can almost guarantee that this book was a 9.6 previously.

 

How do I know? Because Matt bought the 9.6 from my booth in Toronto.

Shamolee! Some bimbo insufficiently_thoughtful_person bid over $1600 for it! What an empty coconut headed fool. Dang that Matt made out like a bandit. Run the math. He paid around $350 for it, pressed it for a few cents, paid new grading fees with shipping back and forth ($18), then some ebay fees ($25??). Subtract that from $1600 and shoowee! Think I'm gonna go buy one of them pressin' machines and do likewise.

Man that will be one good flip. A 9.6 gets about 200 greenies and the 9.8 may bring five times that.

That Dardevil 131 looks like a steam roller sailed back and forth over it. Anybody care to wager on what it was before it was cracked out of the slab? I say 50 bucks it was an 8.5.

If you have any cgc comics, you may kindly donate them to me. They will be handled with care.

I still insist that albedo sounds like a hairy wang not a comic book character!

I just don't care much for this comic. I'd rather have a Hulky 181 in 9.4 then an Albedo 2 anytime. By the way, the name is weird as all get out. It reminds me of a hulkin' phallic.

Yeeouch! Right smak dab in the lightsaber!

Foolkiller, I just hope that I played some small role in turning you from the darkside of the force. DOUG, EXTEND YOUR LIGHTSABER! THE FORCE IS WITH YOU! AN' GET SOME FLOPPY SAGGIES WILL YA ALREADY!!!!!!!!

I can't tell you what I have done to a comic that was real bad but I can certainly tell you what I think some of these eBay misfit sellers have done to comics they have sent to me.... I think some of them sat on them, swatted frikken' flies with them, then spat on them and frikken' stuffed the pieces of [#@$%!!!] in a flimsy [#@$%!!!] mail flyer and then busted my [#@$%!!!] when I complained sayin' that I don't know how to grade!

This subject is some scary stuff. I see it as a bunch of phony advertising the same kind of phony advertising we get bombarded with day after day year after year. I know that when I read on Paypal that we have "buyer protection" I think "Ahh, if I use this I'm 100% covered." I guess what I'm getting at is that you really can't take anything at face value because the people/business who write these advertisements have a conflict of interest. In the end, I feel for you. I feel just as goosed! Will somebody get Paypal's stinken' thumb out of my a#$!!
