I've got a few books that I'll only have for sale this weekend - they're heading out for consignment on Tuesday if they don't sell. Prices are listed alongside the books below, and the price includes shipping via UPS. Feel free to PM me offers, but a "take it" in the thread trumps PMs. If you would rather ship another way I can accommodate but will charge the actual shipping amount you select. Payment via PayPal is preferred, and no returns on slabs. None of these were pressed.
Okay onto the goods:
Venom 26
Inhyuk Lee Convention Variant
$350
The white dot on the forehead was on the scanner bed, not the book itself. I can take another scan/photo if needed.Strange Academy 1
Peach Momoko Comic Mint Variant
$300
Strange Academy 1
Skottie Young Variant
$250
Usagi Yojimbo 10
Peach Momoko SDCC Variant
$500
Sleeping Beauties 1
Peach Momoko SDCC Variant
$250

The graders notes will indicate the issues. You can move forward from there once you get those. A poorly pressed book can introduce subtle defects to an otherwise perfect book.
Only if there actually are graders notes. I've had a 9.2 and a 9.4 come back with no notes before.
Biggest difference I had come back was a book I thought was a 9.4 or even a 9.6 come back as an 8.5. Turns out I sent in the wrong copy of the book, and the NM one was still in the bag in my short box. Oh well.

This cover is amazing. Ordered mine already. This series is one of the best books around right now IMO. If you're not reading it, you should be.
I may have to give up on my quest to own every cover of the series. As it gets more popular there are bound to be more store variants, which is something the first 10 issues haven't really had outside of issue 1. I'll definitely be picking up the Peach cover, though - incredible work!

This may be the most Comic Book Guy argument I've seen around here.
Also the answer is yes, subsequent printings still contain the first appearance of a character in that story. It's just not the first time that story has been printed.

I can't imagine ordering 10k of something and then limiting customers to 1 per. I would guess they change that policy soon.
Probably when they throw them in the $1 bin in a couple of days. 😂

If you read that, you'd see that more than 180 copies are printed.....
Whether those "extras" actually get destroyed is all a marketing gimmick. Money makes people say/do stupid things; brings out the greed.
They've done this before (I own the Venom 25 Maer Ultimate) and they really do destroy the amount printed outside of the sold amount. The reason they overprint is to make sure all copies they sell are 9.8.
The complimentary copies that they distribute are given to people like the artist, and I would suspect there are less than 20 of them in total.

i have a NM 87 signed by Liefield baaackk in the day he was at a Mall in San Francisco......i talked to him for a bit. Nice guy. But no COA. So i guess thats why i have to slab it and get it "certified" for yellow?
CGC won't certify that. You'd get a qualified label and it would say "name written in marker on cover." Only Voldy certifies signatures that aren't witnessed.

Last panel of FCBD:
This muddies the waters for me. The book specifically says it comes before Venom 26.

I've bought a few things from a few different members before. I haven't done much selling yet but I may in the future. Just wanted to get my kudos thread started.

I just bought a slab from Jason - everything was smooth, shipping was fast and it was very well packaged. Would not hesitate to buy from again!

1 hour ago, 1950's war comics said:The USPS is under extremely challenging times these days , although letter delivery has dropped to near nothing, parcel delivery has exploded.. but still not enough to pay the bills...
the USPS is saddled with an enormous legacy cost which could have easily been bailed out if not for the virus, heck i heard the post office is 7 billion in debt , .. well we just printed 3000 billion (1000 billion= 1 trillion) so the paltry 7 billion of post office debt should have been eliminated so we could have that important Govt entity solvent and back on it's feet !
This is incorrect. The USPS does not operate at a loss at all. In fact every rate that they have is audited by the office of the inspector general and the PRC to make sure the rate is profitable. The only reason they are in debt is because of a 2006 law (the PAEA) that requires the USPS to pre-fund pensions through at least 2056, requiring billions in payments every year for a retirement fund that no other entity, public or private, is currently required to do. It's a ridiculous law that was enacted for the sole reason to make the USPS fail.
1 hour ago, 1950's war comics said:also the post office has basically stopped hiring career employees, they only hire part time or temp workers which receive probably half the benefits and wages as full time and no pension
not much motivation to do a good job when you are working side by side with an older employee who makes twice as much as you do for doing the same thing ..
If you were required to pay 50 years of retirement benefits in advance, you might also want to limit how many employees are eligible for retirement.

Venom, and all it's iterations, are played............
The current run has been very good. It's one of my favorite books right now.

Can't believe the SDCC Usagi Yojimbos are selling for $400+ on eBay. Makes me wonder if I should send mine in to be slabbed or just try and move it right away.

No, I truly believe it was a mistake on their part on this one.
If this was the first time it happened I would agree. But these books were graded this month and the issue has been going on since character labels were introduced. Brittany's post about the problem was from last year - surely they could change their system if they wanted to but so far they haven't.

Youre right!, I forgot how those green labels work.
All good! I'd consider paying for the graders notes - it's possible you could contact CGC and get them to correct the error if it really did get the qualified label when it should have the universal label.

Its the "name wrtiten in marker" thats causing the grade drop.
That would only cause the grade drop if it was a blue label. The reason it has a green qualified label is supposed to be to ignore that writing and grade it as if it weren't there.

I was bummed that I missed out on Momoko ASM #47. That one sold out quick. Oh well.
If you mean #46 Comic Mint still has the trade dress available. If you meant 47 I'm in the same boat as you in missing out because I haven't seen anything about it. 😕

Looks like this had a fairly quiet release yesterday and still available
Most discussions I saw about it had people pretty unimpressed with the cover. I definitely don't understand the appeal of a virgin variant - it just seems wrong without the trade dress.
Youre right!, I forgot how those green labels work.

Definitely contact your credit card and get your money back. I'm really not sure how they're even in business still, considering how many chargebacks they must get from credit card companies. I tried getting their account suspended with Stripe (their payment processor), but unfortunately I was not successful.
