  1. A few others i found besides what was already posted . The first 2 seem to be more scarce than the EC .
  2. I spent the whole day yesterday doing that , found about 6 issues of PCH . Also found 3 issues of Airboy with rats on cover .
  3. Could you please direct me to where i can sell my kidneys on the black market?
  4. Now that is a BIG book . I was referring to a bigger value book But keep up the recommendations , they help a lot . Also does anyone have any idea if there is a website where i can search for covers with a specific theme ? I really enjoy PCH rat covers
  5. Took a chance on a raw VG+ copy earlier today , paid $72 . We’ll see when it gets here . Seller accepts returns but i hope i don’t have to do that . From the pictures the grade seemed accurate.
  6. The first time i read about Doll Man was in The League of Regrettable Superheroes There are a lot of weird Golden Age superheroes presented there . Fun read.
  7. Thanks , i saw the one on mycomicshop , weird price , also saw one on ebay VG for $200 . Finally took a better look at ebay sold listings and a VG+ sold for $133. Guess the book is on the rise .
  8. Anyone with the latest Guide nearby can let me know what the prices are for a Chamber of Chills #16 ? I'm at work right now and can't find any info online , go collect an ebay sold are dead ends .
  9. My interest in the photo journal is because as you said im just getting into the golden age . Besides DC superheroes and EC horror i have no idea what is out there . Already because of this thread i started looking at a lot more titles. It’s like a whole new world has opened up from obscure superheroes to great sci fi covers .
  10. I'm also starting to look at restored books. I've seen some pretty good deals on books with minor color touch , as long as the restauration is minimal I don't mind . I buy them for me not for profit . Thanks i'll take a look at them as well , are the stories as goofy as the covers ? On another note , in April I will receive a tax return of about $1500 , I was thinking about buying a bigger and nicer book . Right now i'm thinking of a Showcase 22 in2.0 - 2.5. I haven't looked at any GA books as I'm not so familiar with them . What cool GA books could I get ? Perhaps some mid grade EC ? or Planet Comics ? Low grade Batman 2-9 ?
  11. As i said im not hunting for keys , all i want are cool covers and stories . I guess i should invest in a copy of The Photo-Journal Guide to Comic Books , some great covers posted here i had no idea existed . Also thank you all for all the advice , the Golden Age comunity here rocks .
  12. i'll try branching out to those as well
  13. if you could only go one con , which one would you go to ? Indeed I have seen some amazing things on the CGC sales forums but I have not seen many that offer international shipping but I always keep my eyes open there .
  14. i'll have to do some research on which ones are worth attending then . Thanks
  15. Don't get me wrong , i'm not expecting to pay peanuts for comics that are worth it . I was simply ranting about how from my perspective as non US buyer that can only buy online . My point is it seems sellers seem to think that because it's golden age it's automatically valuable . I've been looking at Baffling Mysteries , most books on ebay seem to go 4-5 x guide prices .
  16. From what I read on these boards even the large conventions have less and less comic vendors .Europe shows have mainly Bronze Age and up with some Silver , rarely some Golden Age mainly key issues and EC's
  17. I have only recently started getting into Golden Age books , don't have a really big disposable income to spend on them and after reading several threads on the Golden age board it seems I am a bit late to the party . Couple years you could get a nice mid grade copy for a couple of hundred $ , now I can only get 1.0 - 2.0 . PCH horror has shot way up , DC superheroes as well (this is what I am mainly interested right now ). Mind you my observations are based on online sales as I am not a US resident , Golden Age in Europe is almost non existent . So am I late ? I enjoy the stories and covers , being from an ex communist country gives me a glimpse to a different world and time , but sometimes it's really hard to justify prices of $200-$300 on a 0.5 Batman 36 for example .
  18. Hey guys , anyone know how many pages Bafflling Mysteries 10 should have ?
  19. I recently bought 2 graded Golden Age comics . Each slab came in a bag , now the bags were dirty so i hoped on to Ebay where i searched for graded cgc bags . I bought a 10 pack and after they arrived tried to put my slabs in the bags , unfortunatelly they do not fit . I tried them on regular GCG slabs as well as slabs from another company , the only slabs that fit them are the old ones from GCG . So what bags should i buy ? thanks
  20. Hey guys , i was wondering are there any modern comics being put out ? Kinda like the EC horrors .I'm only familiar with the bigger publishers .
  21. so any idea what's going on ? is CGC out of the correct dimensions slabs and uses magazine now ? i seen this happen more and more . picture for example , not mine .
  22. Wow , some really great books here guys . Here are my 2 Golden Age Batman and Detective . Low grade better than no grade
