Hope you get that done! You doing a run or those just two issues you like? That Gorgon face on 46 is in such classic Kirby style! I love it!

Ebay charges a 1.65% international fee when you sell something through the global shipping program. Ofcourse I just found out after the fact since they do their best to bury the hell out of this information....beautiful 👌

That is the prevailing theory.

Jesus some of these #s being thrown around....24, 25 million for an uncertified book??? Any uncertified book? Would this be American $ or Zimbabwe bank notes? Without knowing for sure what the most expensive uncertified book ever sold for none of these suggested numbers are reliable.

Toy stores being light the week of Christmas every year and increased internet sales due to pandemic will = empty shelves It cant be cargo ship problems if the shelves were full a month ago when that problem was worse than it is now.

In the parlance of those olden days it was always "The" Batman and never just Batman Very impressive piece of history there!

Here's Howard the duck #26 from same movie. Cover date July 78. This is like right after the first kill scene

This site is the best 🤟

This one is tough to make out. It's a still from the first Halloween in 1978 about 45 minutes into the movie. Any eagle eyes out there can identify???

Yeah that answer was definitely bizarre. If the rust is severe enough to possibly spread over time, the grade wouldn't matter. Though if the rust is that bad I would doubt it grades 9.0 So back in the early days they would give out notes over the phone without charge? I'm guessing this was ~early 2000s? Anyhow, this move is very reasonable and long overdue. If you had the 25$ membership there was not much in it other than submission privileges and I think a small grading discount.

While we're on the subject of grading....I don't know if this is already the case but If there's one defect that should always be recorded in notes it would have to be rusted staples. I don't know of any other defects that could potentially cause further harm in the slab?

Thought for a second it sold for that price (before scrolling enough to see "best offer")

This could very well be, but I guess the OP will have to decide if 150$ is a low enough amount to rely on Ebay if suspicion rears its ugly head. Its definitely a judgement call. I suppose the majority of people might want to stay on the safe side.

Is that Silver Surfer breakdancing after having his board shoot bottle rockets up his arse???

Yes if you ship somewhere other than the address on file you'd be in a terrible position, as a seller in a dispute. The person suggesting the OP cancel the transaction then request buyer buy again under the right address is right. If it were me I'd contact CS just to alert them of the situation.

🙏🙏🙏

Still have this poster splattered on my wall.

Yeah they were not impulse buys that's for sure. I mean I can take solace in that little sliver of control right? 😂 🤟 I'm optimistic I can be more successful in this attempt next year based on limited interests and just having already bought so much carp the last number of years. There's only so much left! I can only hope 🙏

In reverse order.... You know at this point, my most important comic acquisition of 2022 will be a measure of self restraint!!! To say that my buying habits are recklessly out of control is like saying a T Rex was a little bit feisty

I might include 13 in there as well. Ka-Zar's origin and any book in which Kirby joins Romita is like having Jordan and Bill Russell on same team! Is there any DD with a better cover than 13? Like ever?...16 is noteworthy because it's the first Romita spidey art and I think 12 is considered Romita's kick off to his run CapAm notwithstanding.

Didn't want to miss the boat on this one!

Finally got to this after putting it off! At this point I think 48 is out of reach. This is the best cover and and most important in the trilogy imho. I do want to finish the 1st 3 inhumans apps. Just 46 to go.

Yeah I figured he was pointing them to where he came from.....don't put any logic to it man, these are just the speculations of a 10 year old only familiar with the cover. FF was one of the last titles I really got to into reading when it became possible to read them online in the 90's when I was in high school. It wasn't too easy to find or afford these big issues at the LCS. The really early ones were impossible and I wasn't about to get into Ebay at that age lol!
