  3. I'm so backed up on these, I really do apologize, Kudos to Mjacobs for a a wonderful Marvel Mystery 88, packed well, shipped faster than a speeding bullet, great communication, and did I mention, I LOVE the book? thanks again, Michael:) The pleasure was mine!
  4. I think Subliminal brings up an EXCELLENT point here. Many times I'll be looking at books here, and eventually, they'll end up selling but the final price is deleted. Sometimes this is just good info to know in the event I'm looking to move into the market for a book in similar grade. What do the rest of you think--is this info that should be made more public than it often is, or do you think there is a certain level of discretion that sellers should use in disclosing this info? When a book is sold through PM it's nobodys business. If asked about the selling price, I consult the buyer before sharing that information. When someone posts I think the price should remain in the thread for all to see. Removing the price when was used is not fair to others who might not know what the BIN was. Just my
  5. Your going to have to teach me how to set up those pics like that. What he said.
  6. I'ts called "Ditko sucks syndrome". Every once in a while a Ditko Spider-fan wakes from their trance, suddenly, to their horror, they can see Ditko for the artist he is. Ouch! How do you really feel? The OP's question gave me the greenlight, I've been waiting a long time to get that one off. I was being critical of this cover as a rare exception...and it is interesting to me that it's also a rare Ditko-Kirby collaboration...but I am a HUGE Ditko fan...he's always been in my Top 2 along with Kirby...some days I have a hard time establishing who's my No. 1 of the two... Having said that...we don't allow Ditko bashers here on our ASCT! Tom, I have a confession, I posted that comment to bait Spider-man fans. While no fan, I recognize Amazing Spider-Man as Marvels flagship title and I also have great respect for Steve Ditko. I will not resort to this type of post(baiting) again as it did not work anyway.
  7. Nice one! Gotta love the Commissar! I love the Avengers issues from #16 through to the early 30s. Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver and Cap were a great lineup. (My all-time favourite era, though, is the Thomas/Buscema run from #41 through #62. That was golden!) The teens and 20s issues are the biggest gaps in my collection. It's getting mighty costly to try and fill in the gaps in grade. True, I'm having to settle for 9.0s for books in the teens. A 9.0 is a very nice book and a lot better value than a lot of the higher grades IMHO. That's a cool # 18. Thank you, sir.
  8. Sweet book MJ, congrats! That was the first SA Avengers that I ever owned Thank you.

  12. we can give KUDOS for PM's??? I could fill this Board up and crash it... CAL CAL, you disappoint me. For such an independent thinker today you fall short, and conform like a sheep. CAL, who follows the crowd.
