  1. Why are the hot girls always possessed by the devil? (jk in case my wife reads this )
  2. I'd agree. And this is the only scenario under which I'd consider sending to Voldy.
  3. I'd agree. Tis blasphemy, but this is the rare occasion where I would send to Voldy.
  4. Count me in for this as well... precise... yet hedgy.
  5. Ka-ching!!! Gotta be a $4000+ comic! Nice.
  6. For a while there, I was mutated by a disease into a superhero... COVID-Man.
  7. Don't have photos on my phone, but my fave is a trilogy: 6.5's of FF48, 49, and 50.
  8. I bought it unslabbed in 2002, knowing it was restored. I slabbed it. And I sold it last year... for about 6 times what I paid for it. I credit three factors: 1. Restored books in 2002 were selling cheap. 2. I held it for about 20 years. That helps. 3. Movies.
  9. When I was selling off the bulk of my stash, I'd include little goodies if I had them... I had high quality reprints of the first and last pages of TOS39, on photography paper, that I included with the TOS 39 I sold.
  10. Yes. I had an AF 15 (R), gorgeous cover, almost imperceptible crease across 1/2 the back page. 6.0.
  11. I had an FF1 with similar issues, also a 6.0R. I got it pressed, regraded... 6.0 again. The creases, I believe, will be your downfall. JMHO.
  12. This is the first comic I ever bought... in the first grade... a copy of it is now framed in my home office. It had a profound impact on me: I wound up marrying a hot redhead.
  13. Newton rings are bad... ...but not as bad as Fig Newton rings. Lesson learned: Never let your little brother read your comics.
  14. I'll go 7.5... it's in a little better shape than my A14... ...it's not missing half the cover. LOL
  15. The press after signing is kind of important. The book is being handled and written on. JMHO.
