  1. It did sell Vince Zurzolo from comicconnect made video sharing the news
  2. I’ve collected my whole life wether it was comics ,cards vintage BMX bikes or statues. Before the big comic price boom I had a longer list of wants but today I’ve settled for my absolute childhood favs. I’m trying to round out my collection with few big books and some original art I can sit back smile and watch my son grow. Sub-Mariner Comics Timely 1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,11,13 (to finish the run a tall order but so much fun hunting these down) Amazing Spiderman 1,3 Amazing Fantasy 15 Fantastic Four 5,48,49,50 original sketches of namor by John Byrne original sketches of black costume spiderman by John Byrne and Clayton Crain This is my want list and if I had these I would be content. I have many more cool comics , cards and art so taking time to see if I can pull this off would be great
  3. AF15 ASM1 FF5 FF 48,49 owned all the Spider-Man books two years ago sold them to help finance home furnishings etc in my new place and boom this market exploded. In 2008 I could have bought Cgc 8.0 FF5 for 800.00 opted for issue 4 Cgc 6.0 which I still own but would love to pair these as I have issue 6 as well. The surfer books just got way pricey fast I hope maybe to get them out of this group but doubt it
  4. Well torpedo comics will get another one . They have huge inventory on expensive books all the time . They don’t care!
  5. Golden age for the simple fact they always appreciate in a healthy manner. Short term and long term they are a great era to look into if possible . I couldn’t just sell all my TMNT as I’m a fan as well I’d def sell high grade and buy lower grade copy and move the funds into other keys to get more for my PC.
  6. Buddy you want point something out how about the fact your username is the absolute worst brand of comics ever invented . EVER!!!!! I collect Tmnt m and have a few number 1s I didn’t know I had to qualify for a post my lord …..
  7. You’re a big mouth that can’t handle the truth . The truth is my point about banks laughing you out of their offices is legit . As for making fun of things I collect and enjoy that makes you nothing more than a bully . Who cares if you don’t like something I do .
  8. Ok take your collectables to your bank and let me what they give you for them …. Maybe you can put them down as payment for new home …… NOT!!!!! We live in collectable make believe where everyone thinks these are investments when true investments would never take these as payment ever. Nor would and financial institution.
  9. What I meant by manipulating shares is whos to say the investment company is not propping up their own book to get more investors to buy “ shares” ? So the value is inflated would anyone buy 10K worth of a book if you knew that 70% was owned by the company ???? All I’m saying is you could lose everything and the company walks away with the asset anyways lol.
  10. Only buy graded . You can do this with comics although tougher because the flaws and wear on books is more extensive . I stopped buying on eBay because they just don’t give enough protection
  11. I guess the only thing to compare it to is what would a TEC 27 in 0.5 sell for then try figure it with AF15. These are huge first apps we are dealing with and a meteoric rise in price . It’s scary . I sold my 2.0 for 14K two years ago now it may be 35-40K???? Nuts
  12. I’m happy you passed with every auction that passes I’m being more and more squeezed out . I tried to win the 3.5 on Heritage not even close . I was fortunate I saw this on Instagram planted the seed early and few weeks later it was mine . Great book and I’m happy playing down here in low grade pool lol.
  13. The investment part of this sounds shady to me as it’s easy to manipulate these “ shares” personally I think this huge scam but it’s out there
  14. It’s incredible the time it must have taken to assemble it . It was time for them to say goodbye never an easy moment
  15. Another big add for me as I’m closing in on a good chunk of consecutive Subbys. I need issue 11,13 to complete a blue label run from 10-42. Sub-Mariner Comics 10 1943
  16. Nothing to do with hucksters . Market is correct on 9.8s in newsstand version and price variant newsstands get 50% over reg cover Direct copies . Those are numbers I don’t set market the buyers do . It’s been climbing for a number of years. As for hucksters look no further than scummy dealers out there milking every penny off customers . They invented the word.
  17. Can’t have an opinion here without being harassed and then told on to mods.
