  1. I've got a Nodell. Bought back in the early 90s so not as At the time it was solicited new through comic book stores after a couple of months after the issue was originally released. From memory I think it cost me $2.50
  2. I have to agree. I know there's a new TV show coming out and prices may rise but it's not a rare book and prices usually fall back down as the show airs or finishes. I'd be patient and find a copy that presents well for the grade. Like @Black_Adam. I too picked up a copy with a subscription crease on the back cover. The front cover though looks so sweet for $700 during the price surge craze of a year ago.
  3. I picked up these yesterday, I think a couple were from last year's fcbd. While I was there I picked up about $80 in nice high grade raw bronze books. Since the store has to buy the free fcbd books I like to buy back issues at the stores as a way of saying thanks for participating. It compensates them from the people who just turn up once a year for free comics and don't buy anything in the store at the time.
  4. Irony about the price variants, they were looked down upon. At the time I'd rather buy a U.S price copy from lcs as they were two months ahead of the news stand. Only picked up the Aussie price variants when I missed a issue at my lcs as it was a 45 minute train ride there. I did use to own the New Mutants 98 $1.50 Aus price variant but sold it when it first hit $100. Oh well easy come easy go 👍
  5. I wouldn't have done that trade either. Coincidentally I picked up many years ago a Avengers 1 CGC 1.5 cream pages a grail book for me. I came across a Avengers 1 CGC 6.5 off-white pages and bought that book. Then sold my 1.5 copy. I generally like to upgrade first then sell rather then trade or sell them look for a replacement. I made the mistake of getting rid of my Avengers 4 CGC 3.5 because it has tan pages then the prices went through the roof and I'll probably never own a copy now.
  6. Unfortunately no, though I do have a habit of seeing non ped copies of 77 for under $20 and buying them
  7. Going through withdrawal, haven't bought a comic in three weeks now 😞
