You've heard the expression marry in haste, repent at leisure. Same here. Don't let some upcoming TV show force you into an artificial choice between these two distinctly average looking copies. For the long term aim of being an ASM129 owner, it's worth weathering any short term storms. They are just white noise. Chances are you'd spring for one of these and a beauty would follow along and give you severe buyer's remorse. Pursue one with the sense of a hunter tracking down his prey. Then the right one will come into your sights! Good luck.

Thank you and everyone else for your opinions and we'll thought out points. I will keep looking for a better presenting copy. This is why I love this group and honored to be in touch with great fellow comic collectors.

Of the 3, I like option C. 

How are the colors? They don't look as sharp,  but that could just be the photo. 

A bit more faded colors on option C. Still looking for more copies in the same grade. 

Here is a choice C in off-white to white pages in the same grade.

 

Grader Notes

Not sure of your budget, but Greg Reece has a nice presenting 8.0 on his website:

 

https://reececomics.com/product/amazing-spider-man-129-cgc-80-owwh-pages for $2600

 

here is a nice 3.0 on comiclink ending tonight:

 

https://www.comiclink.com/auctions/item.asp?back=%2FAUCTIONS%2FSEARCH.ASP%3FFocusedOnly%3D1%26where%3Dauctions%26title%3Damazing%2Bspider-man%26ItemType%3DCB%26pg%3D4%26x%3D0%26y%3D0%23Item_1682397&id=1682397&itemType=0#detail

Yeah, my budget is around $1,200 so that gorgeous 8.0 is out of my price range. The 3.0 looks good but these two copies I posted pics of are actually 4.5s and the price probably won't be too far off from the final Hammer price on that 3.0.

Thank you everyone.  I was leaning away from the copy A as although the rest of the cover looks great and it has white pages, my eyes keep getting drawn towards the rip. I was sort of going to go with copy B but some of you made some good points so I may keep looking for another copy in that grade.

Well my budget is limited and these two copies fit right in plus I like the grade. I know there are lots of CGC graded copies of ASM 129 but I'd like to get the first Punisher before the new Daredevil series begins. 

Hi everyone, 

Hoping that I can get some input to help me make a final decision on buying a copy of Amazing Spider-Man #129. I found two copies, in the same grade, at the same price. 

Copy A is the first three photos with the grader notes beneath and it has white pages.

Copy B is the last two photos with the grader notes beneath and it has off-white pages. 

I'm not looking to flip the book, it will be for my personal collection and only sold down the line if I can upgrade at some point. 

So which Copy would you choose and why?

The original Ghost Rider! From the Amicus anthology based on the pre-code horror comics - Tales from the Crypt (1972).

What the heck:  

Last two sales of Amazing Spider-Man #135 CGC 9.0 were $368 and $340 plus shipping and ebay taxes. Need to pay off a new acquisition so how about a rock bottom price of $310 shipped via USPS Priority mail?

Giant size Spider-man 4 and amazing Spider-man 162

No sales yet and looking to move the books so I've cut the prices further and of course willing to hear reasonable offers. 

Reopened this sales thread with books for sale both individually at lower prices and as a lot for a further discount. 

Looking to sell these books this weekend and can ship them out this coming Wednesday. Dropped the price again for the lot of three Punisher books.
