I'd go 3.5/4.0 on copy #1, and 2.5/3.0 on copy #2. Although besides the CCA box, other spots look funky to me, as in possible color touch, especially the crease above "Worlds".

Should be a slam-dunk case found in your favor.

And her "plenty of cardboard" is a thin Priority Mail Envelope? That's not supposed to be used for anything besides Priority Mail? She stuck the books in that and then inside a plastic bag?

Lot of fist shaking going on in those covers. Maybe the whole team needs some anger management.

While I was posting and reading the Boards, I won an auction using a sniping service. Didn't have to sit there counting down the seconds down, didn't get caught up in a bidding war, didn't pay more than I wanted to.

Auctionsniper is almost free as well.

Picked these up recently. It's a fun series.

Regardless of the first appearance question (and it’s the first appearance of The Avengers - that doesn’t count?) if your concern is solely value, the 12 month sales average of DD# 1 in 5.0 is $2032 while the 12 month sales average Avengers #1 in 4.0 is $2526. Daredevil #1 may be undervalued, but he's also a less popular character than the Avengers.

What's the grade on the DD #1? Are they both graded by CGC?

My gut feeling is that it was neither trimmed at a recycling center or by a kid. Right edge chipping is very common on Hulk #6. Looks to me like somebody tried to trim the chipping off to purposely improve the book's appearance.

Count me in. One thread per section at a time is plenty and reasonable. There's simply no reason to run multiple threads on the same page.

Family saw it on Sunday and we all enjoyed it. Wasn't the missus' most favorite superhero movie, but no major complaints. I was surprised by the demons and other darker parts; the trailers made it look like a joke-fest the whole way through, glad they marketed it the way they did.

Posted this in the Western thread, but it is from 1959. (Didn't notice until I saw *Bronze age fan*s). Picked it up cheap at a local show a few weeks ago.

You sure about that? They've been charging a fee for an "instant transfer" since last year. Regular old transfer that takes a day or two is still free. Just transferred some dough a few days ago.

I'd be surprised it it ever takes a huge leap, maybe slow, minor upward growth over the long term. Hard to see Man-Thing breaking out in the movies to become an A-List character, and magazine 1st appearances traditionally don't have the cachet of comic book first appearances. Who knows though, crazy things happen all the time.

I couldn't log in at all today with several different Macs with several different browsers. At home with a PC tonight I didn't have a problem. My screen was identical to Artboy's.

I Iove that he’s the alter ego of a perfumed, handkerchief-toting fop in King Arthur’s court.

Well, if not you, who is supposed to put the correct info on? And if I didn’t know you’re a stand-up guy from the boards, I’d think your feedback is looking a little iffy. There’s complaints about grading and you sent the wrong book in two instances and the buyers had to foot some of the bill?

But it's up to you to write the correct info on the form. I don’t even include the tariff code, just "printed matter - comic book”. If you don’t fill out the form that way customs will think it’s a taxable item and impose the fee on the recipient.

TTA #1 in 6.0 is nothing to sneeze at.

Well, since the auctions are private, we have no means to ascertain whether those bids are legitimate. They could ALL be shills in an attempt to salt the mine as it were, and sucker in somebody to drop a fraction of that amount thinking they were getting bargain.

Maybe he decided to leave them all in a fort in the woods.

Has anybody been watching the new animated Ultraman series on Netflix? Our whole family has been enjoying it. Being intimately familiar with the 50+ years old franchise, I’m almost surprised it’s as good as it is. (There’s been a new Ultraman series almost every year from 1966 to 2019.) Here’s the trailer in case any kaiju eiga fans are interested. It airs on Netflix in English, not Japanese.
