  1. What are you doing? Trying to kill this thread??
  2. No flipping way. Show the front with label, please.
  3. Ya, I sent a PM. The price seemed to good, but someone bit before I did. If it's legit, it's a great deal. Given his last thread and the obviousness of his deception there, you have a better chance of this this place being legit: Before this sale is legit.
  4. After meeting Janet several times, I agree she looks more like a Hector but it's their prerogative as to what they call themselves. Dagnabbit, somebody found it funny. Thank you! I'm done now. It's no longer funny as you followed up with dagnabbit.
  5. I've got a bunch of CGC-graded books that will be going up for sale shortly. (thumbs u The sale is right here.
  6. The funny thing is, anyone with a Dealer account will tell you EXACTLY what Michael said. It's not a secret and it's not something he came up with on his own. They've been doing this for over 25 years. I was buying cases of foil variants for $0.15 a book back in 1990-1995. Now that's 3 in a million.
  7. There was a pretty humorous thread over in the modern section. 1:500 Quesada variant Fun times.
  8. Except there's no where he could've gotten that information. He has no proof. I normally order 2 copies of Scooby Do TU for my store, I ordered 12 of #12. I'm certainly not the only person who upped their order on it. I'm also thinking it's going to be in the 10-12,000 range. At least. I'll ask him where he got that figure of 7,000 from, , in a couple days, next time I stop by his shop. He also said that he thought the book was worthless and he was annoyed that he had 5 people walk in, he had never seen before, asking if he had any copies. He has 0 copies for sale, FTR. I've known the guy for a couple years, he's a pretty straight forward guy and he does not chase after ,or push, hot books.That said, he has no motive to tell me that he was "sure" that the print run was 7000. Maybe he knows somebody at DC or Diamond and got some inside intelligence...or maybe not.hell if I know. In any event, even if the print run was as low as 7000, that is not inordinately rare and the book has *absolutely no* tie in to DC continuity, nor the Suicide Squad movie related scenery. Some dooshbag sellers are listing it as " the 1st App. Gotham Girls"....which is an outright fabrication.Just saying, it is the sort of gimmicky hot book that speculators hear has a super low print run and morally bankrupt eBay flippers use any means they can dream of to get multiples of cover price for a book that came out 2 weeks ago. Once CGC gets flooded with subs of this book,I think the price point on slabbed 9.8's will be around $25 to $50. You just described BA 12. -J. Not at all. BA 12 sells for big duckets b/c it is the 1st app of HQ....it being the 1st app. of HQ, it inherently has a lot to do with the Suicide Squad movie. Scooby Doo Adv. 12 is just a short ordered book with a HQ appearance. Is it worth a $100 in a CGC 9.8 slab? yeah, I think so. I actualy wouldn't be surprised to see it go past the $100 mark in 9.8 b/c of it being short ordered and HQ completionists want the book. I actually just bought a copy via ebay for $12, shipped.Looks like a 9.8 , and if not, I'll press it. I've got some a Mad Love and 2 HQ 1-shots (1st DC app in continuity) and 2 Detective 570's coming back from CGC in a week or so. I'm going to list them all on ebay at around FMV BIN's.......and put up the Scooby Adv 12 at $49.99 w/free shipping. Betcha the raw 9.8 Scooby 12 sells at that price off of trickle down interest. Ahem. Ducats
  9. I've had numerous positive transactions with Dan. Recommended! (thumbs u
  10. Personally, I love how they weren't technically proficient enough to actually fit their chosen font for the Serial Number and Designation into the box they created. Cutting off parts of letters gives it that homespun, Midwestern, made-by-hand feel. They should have worked the word "Artisanal" into the company name. I love how they go beyond the technical aspects of grading and document how they feel about the book. "Overall a very nice comic with very attractive red and yellow foil cover." "What do you feel this book grades at?" "I feel this book grades at "very nice" "Is that higher or lower than "extra nice", "super sweet" and "minty fresh"? On the plus side, they do have your 9.5 grade.
  11. Congrats! You just made the most ridiculous post of the day. What is wrong with people!?!? This type of post deserves an insta-ban. Interfering with someone trying to sell a book to pay for medical expenses. Saying your book is better (you forgot to write na na na na boo boo) which is irrelevant. Disingenuous "good luck with the sale." You officially look like a spiteful 10 year old with no social skills. If I were you i'd be embarrassed. Uh... guessing that Revat is not the culprit and he's just sarcastically paraphrasing a post in the sales thread that has since been deleted. I'm guessing that Red doesn't like clicking links and reading.
  12. The negativity and ridiculousness is just getting silly. People need to act like adults and treat each other with respect. My spider-sense tells me this is no adult.
  13. I got Flesh and Steel signed and roughly 6-8 comics. Nice! I got four DC war books signed by him, can't wait to see how they turned out. Make sure you post them when they come back, guys. (thumbs u
