  1. People always say you paid what and what for that?! Why did it cost so much?! Blah blah. It’s not cheap to get this stuff done let alone time consuming...
  2. I just did a no no and sent in some post 50 ff books for pressing and grades. They ARE in great shape and I should get some high 9 grades but I think at 120 buck per book I’m going to lose my shirt! Some pretty dr doom covers to ogle at least. I need a billiard room to showcase this stuff...
  3. You are down to the real nitty gritty. I love it! Is it possible you have the best already? Close to it I’m sure! Time and money... luckily I have a bunch of holes in my collection and I’m not so particular... yet haha
  4. I have been buying a few books lately hehe. I’ll post some pics. Hey straw man how about posting some of your toe stubs? You have an awesome collection but let’s see what you are trying to improve!!
  5. Opinions... looking for some advice on ff collecting. These books are expensive in high grade! What would you do if looking back on your collection? Get all 9 plus or is 8 plus good enough? I got 30 books below issue 50 to get so I can complete my ff 1 to 100 collection. Any opinions? Kirby jack and straw man???
  6. Relax Kav. I just want to know if all ok. Bomber bob treated me fairly here as did you. I’m just looking for info. I feel bad that I bought a book from bob but I don’t think he was ready to sell them. Be happy
  7. Got it off eBay. It’s very nice but pricy. Guy cut me a break on price. I’m happy. Old school case. Looks pressed already so no need to do anything. I really wanted Bomber Bob’s copy but this will do nicely. Have a great weekend.
  8. Whats up with FF annual 6. I picked a nm unslabbed copy for 30 bucks 6 months ago...
  9. The best part was this was a total surprise! It was the oldest FF I had and a little dirty, came back a 5.5. I just sent it in for sentiment. Looks great after a press... I think i posted it like 5 times now haha, sorry... The signature note is on the label.
  10. What's up with FF annual 6? I got a very nice copy about 6 months ago for 30 bucks, because KirbyJack told me to do it! Could be a 9.0 plus...
  11. i agree. But Tell me, do you own any slabbed books or would you buy one?
  12. Wont they Keys value beat the 9.8 in a run book?
  13. those are both collectable books Like Minor Keys. since you got everything already would you rather 70 to 100 ff in over 9.0?
  14. It seems like the common theme... grading is too tight right now . Its like the sirens song for 5 years now... Its expensive to send in with a press, like 100 per book. But you know they aren't making any more. 60 year old newsprint. Lets say I keep the books ten more years, any opinions? Strawman....
  15. Your honesty stings but is probably correct... Thanks
  16. Worth sending in? The books are nice but not great condition. Would you do it? What do you guys think?
  17. Big High Roller i would usually fast track my stuff through CCS and CGC. Thats 2 months. Economy submission is 6 loooooong months. Who has time for that? Not me!
  18. I did read the thread. Press and slab it it if you want. It will cost about 140 buck for a single silver age book including postage and take up to 6 months. Go for it... Fedex ground...45 buck Pressing at CCS ... 60 buck Grading at CGC... 40 buck Postage back???? Do what you want. Just DO NOT pick pick economy submission!
