  1. The intelligent ones are buying the competition, and CGC purple labels.
  2. That Thai flatware has been a good solid seller for me. Must have picked up a dozen sets for under $10 ans sold them for $40-50. That looks to be the original case ,as well. I guess these were.quite popular in the mid 1950s.
  3. When Darkseid moved the planet of Daxxam into a yellow sun system, creating millions of super slaves, they were not anywhere near Mon-els level of powers.
  4. Star Reach 1. First Direct Sales comic.
  5. I remember being shocked by God appearing in a Ghost Rider story in Marvel Spotlight towards the end of his run in it.
  6. I stopped reading it shortly after 300, but I'd say the worst run was in and around the 180s. As a general rule, I find late 1970s Marvels lack the certain secret sauce that most Marvels have.
  7. The good side of that law is the pawn shop will have positive id on the seller, making an arrest possible and the Insurance company pays the dealer, not you.
  8. You mean somebody could buy the art to X-Men 1, claim they didn't know it was stolen and keep it? Yep, that's what I mean. If a seller sells something that turns out to be stolen, the onus should be on him, not the buyer.
  9. I'm still having a problem with the dealer buying stolen property, selling it to an unwitting victim and the victim being the one held responsible. When you buy something off eBay, doesn't the sellers agreement state that the seller is the legal owner and has the right to sell the property? Every other consignment house, auction house, pawn shop or precious metal shop I deal with has that in the agreement
  10. Why would it be any different than someone buying Kirby art?
  11. Happened to me. Bought a book on eBay that was stolen from a well known dealer. In the end I returned the book to the dealer and I'm out over $2K. Up to me to recoup it from the seller. That's entirely different. You bought it from the thief. In my hypothetical, why should the seller get to keep my money?
  12. So if I buy a book on eBay from an established dealer and it turns out to be stolen, I'm on the hook?
  13. Apple's and Oranges. There were only so many slots on the wrestling shows, especially the pay per views. One company owning both comic universes would save money, and there would be no reason to reduce product. I have long thought TW would be best served by licensing DC to Disney, if Disney would do it.
  14. Trump has said he would veto this merger. For whatever that is worth.
  15. I thought I'd signed up, but I guess not. Anyway, I'd love to read this when it's available.
  16. Comic Connect also limits credit cards to $2500 per invoice and won't split auctions into multiple invoices.
