  1. yes, very beautiful ladies,.. nice books, nice grades on them as well.
  2. : It would have been cooler if Subby was not holding an anti-flame gun on the Torch 8...! "anti-flame gun" would that be a water pistol ?
  3. Wow Alton, are you venturing into pre-Robin TECs? I was contemplating getting at least one Pre-Robin, the way everyone has been drop-kickin' to get to these books lately, I started thinking that I'd better do it soon, of course the 29,31,33, and 35, are out of my league, so I thought maybe a 36 or 37. like I say it would be nice to have at least one pre-Robin Tec to round out my collection, but now, I guess I don't have to worry about it. oh well, back to the Action's
  4. they snatched the UNRESTORED 5.0 #36 I was thinking about as well hello all... metro did not have an unrestored 5.0 #36 on their site yesterday?...Vin told me that the cover had been cleaned on that book ( the $3K copy)...otherwise, I would have had it long ago since I completed the tecs, I had not been hitting the detective part of the site daily, recently...was the 37 the $5900 copy?...that one looked pretty good, but it had been on their site since last year? or was this a new copy? rick ok, so now I'm confused, I remember they had 3 copies of Tec #36, one 8.5 cvr cleaned for $7,390, (still on their site) one 8.0 ct/cvr cleaned for $2,000 (still on their site) and the 5.0 for $3,000, which is the one that is gone now, was this book restored ?? the listing didn't say anything about resto. Yeah, I called Vin too about the 5.0 tec 36 and he told me too that there is a high possibility that it was cleaned/restored. If it were unrestored, either myself or Rick would have picked it up when it first came out. well, now I don't feel so bad about missing it,.. someone did buy it right ? hello all... we can assume so, since it is not listed on their site...don't feel bad, I had vin confirm the cover had been aqueously cleaned, if I remember correctly (but this was last year)...both brian and I had been looking at it...since an unrestored 36 is tops on my list (COOLJ, oh COOLJ...help a brother out!).... but, I used to see a ton of 36's, so I am sure some will pop up sooner or later! rick I was wondering why one of you Tec guys hadn't snatched that one up, , now I know.

  8. yes, it is and no, it hasn't well I hope everything turns out OK, and your eBay bad luck doesn't rear it's ugly head again
  9. so, you haven't received that book yet ? it is the one I'm thinking of right ?
  10. congrats Matt on finally getting an Action #39, and a beauty at that ! one of the tougher war covers to find in any condition.
  11. but it's not 9.8 When it comes to SA my grade standard drops true,.. they drop even more when you enter GA books. It's like... "hey, is the cover attached ??.. are the pages falling apart?"
  12. I always do whatever I want on my own threads.....kinda like it's OK to pee in your own pool I know, I was just joking
  13. WTF is a Silver Age Marvel doing in here ?? I'll take the More Fun #54 by a mile.
  14. Marvel Mystery #9 Detective Comics #30 All American #21 Detective Comics #66
  15. NICE !!! forget about finding a #13, you've got a #10 !!!!! great book Brian, your one lucky dog.
  16. Kudos to Greggy, for quick shipment of a book I recently bought from him.. and excellent packing, I don't think I've ever seen better packing for a $9 book.. just top notch service all the way..
  17. not that I haven't been known to wear a dress,....or two.. (joking), but I'll take the 'Tec #27 everytime..
  18. a fellow collector told me that alot of the "first generation" of comic collectors are cashing out, and that may also add to certain scarce books coming to market,.. does that theory have any merit, or is it way off base ?
  19. Great book Win !! congrats on obtaining your long-time goal.
  20. I'll take the Superman #1, yes it's incomplete, but the clipped coupon doesn't affect story,.. so I could easily live with it.
