  1. I've not posted for a while. To be honest, Bakers haven't come my way... until this week. Lower grade, but I've not won three in a single lot before. Cheers.
  2. Lovely book, Ron. Wish I had a copy
  3. Return. Appears that you did nothing wrong. Discuss with any seller about proper packing shipping techniques before your next slab purchase. Buying with confidence includes good packing and shipping practices by the seller.
  4. It was a decent enough looking copy in hand.
  5. Yeah, rare doesn't always cut it, determine value. There has to be lots of people that want it, or a few that Really want it to drive the dollar value up
  6. Throw it up, and let's find out?? Beauty of a copy
  7. This auction should have occurred on July 4th since the fireworks will be tremendous.
  8. GPA says between 63 & 77 live listings for AF15, depending on which little circle you rely upon. Seems like quite a few for such a coveted book
  9. I recall an interview, where a man collected every comic made??? and had some super silly number of books? Televised interview some years ago. Not sure if he started at a certain date and bought new, or if he was after a copy of every comic he could find. Would love to see a breakdown of his collection today.
  10. DS 30 is the Baker that got me started. This is a gorgeous copy.
  11. Yes indeed. Something this large, at a bigger auction house will really test the limits. Probably test my wallet too. I've been fortunate to find some in the wild and a few at auction. Just a few years for me and my Baker interest. Maybe I'll be lucky at this event and bring one home.
  12. Seems awfully strong given its obvious drawbacks.
  13. Yeah, I've got a few saved but I'm sure it will end up being for tracking purposes only. Very exciting to watch and dream though.
  14. You all with these super cool books. I'll have to settle for cops shooting at bad guys, or couples kissing. Maybe one day, I'll snag some gruesome, horror, murder covers.
  15. Right direction? I suppose. It could be easier still If I have Internet Service available, I can search to find the graders notes (that could easily be put on the front/back of the label.) But hooray for us!
  16. Another chance for many great books. Never thought I would see that GCE again.
  17. I think I recognize a book in this auction. No regrets.
  18. Books I've sold, went to pay bills, and/or buy more books. I have yet to own my SA forever book in any grade.
  19. My biggest wrong turn, was the one that got me hooked. The very first collection I bought was a small one in rough shape, but I learned a lot, and scored a Matt Baker Diary Secrets 30.
  20. Would have loved to be in the room when this was discussed.
  21. Is the PLOD offensive? Sell it while it's hot and get a universal label maybe. Do you want a better 181? Trade up maybe.
