  1. Some Y art For Sale I posted 2 covers for sale but actually I am only selling one of them. You can choose the one you like best.
  2. The OA world does not work like the slab world, you don't have a GPA or a GoCollect where you can look up pricing for one specific piece. Items are one of a kind and as you yourself express there is nothing easy when dealing with one of a kind items. What any and all OA collectors SHOULD do is study it as much as can be studied and due diligence is necessary in order to have a certain threshold understanding of it. Like all else things are worth what a person is willing to pay for it. Thinks like paying CAF's market data pricing can help figure out and give a ballpark figure what things COULD be worth. When I started collecting art almost 10 years ago I made a lot of mistakes buying whatever I saw and not being specific in my collecting goals. What I personally did was read a lot, as much as I could. I got all the books I could find on OA. I even purchased a several editions of a price guide that was put out (which is in no way accurate). Not until this month did I join this OA forum to keep expanding my knowledge even further. I think nobody ever ceases to learn in this vast expanding world. To the original poster I wish you luck in this new endeavor you are taking on! I think that slabbing would not be recommended for OA as off gassing could be an issue with the art. I myself don't expose any art to direct sunlight even with UV protection as I seek to preserve the art as much as it can be preserved but many others feel differently in regards to this issue.
  3. Never purchased from them but if you paid with Paypal you should be alright. If nothing arrives or no communication is answered you can ask Paypal for your money back .
  4. I concur with most answers here. Something will eventually come up just watch auctions and CAF and OA groups. Something new you want always comes up!
  5. What type of mylar sleeves? Do you also use acid free backing boards? Were are you purchasing them?
  6. Is the custom sticker also of the archival kind?
  7. Are you still interested in purchasing the page/s?
  8. I was also recommended the Office Lens app and I used it for some comics but haven't tried it on OA, will download the 2 recommended here and see the results. Would any of those apps be able to get a 600 dpi resolution? I use my scanner but for bigger sized items I have had to learn to use Photoshop to stitch art together but they never fit perfectly!
  9. I meant to ask which one are those. I have 18x24 Itoyas but the dimensions are 18" width and 24" height meaning that to properly see a DPS I'd have to turn it around. Are there other Itoyas that have a 24" width and an 18" height that upon opening them you already see the DPS in all its glorious beauty without having to turn it around?
  10. What is the DPS port if I may ask?
  11. As far as Silver Surfer goes nobody can top Jack Kirby because its his character people! But then there have been a lot of great artist on the character. John Buscema, Marshall Rogers, Ron Lim and Mike Allred. Their all good I would evaluate pages that I could acquire page by page to determine which would be the best if I were in the market for some but the current pricing takes it off my budget. Romita 100 cover will command a good price tag and definitely worth it as long as no foul play takes place.
