  1. I want to thank the following board members for purchasing from me and funding my new appliance. I never knew how much better life is with the ability to store perishables. You made my dream come true. OT: Has anyone heard of a machine that lets you play movies on your TV? I might need to sell more books.

  2. Hey Andy,

     

    You got a load of them, but I hung onto a few.... The truth is, I almost got out of Silver Age war altogether to get nothing but super high-grade bronze age war. Seeing all the stunning Silver age books that have been on these boards and in auction lately, I'm glad I didn't.

     

    Actually, maybe I could ask the guys on this thread for their opinion... I have a bit of dilemma.

     

    I've been laying off the silver age war books as I pursue Our Army at War #200-#300 in CGC 9.4 or better. So far, I've got about 25 books, but man they are not cheap certified. I love them, but the truth is I have all those books raw in strong 9.0 to 9.4 already... in fact my bronze age war collection is complete in really nice grade. As much as I love getting the certified BA books, it means I'm passing on a lot of nice silver. And in a way, getting certified copies of books I already have raw in grade is a bit redundant.

     

    So.... do I continue on my current path? Or should I liquidate the certified bronze books, and got for a more complete overall war collection? If I blitzed all the CGC books, I'd put about $3500 in my pocket... and that could fill in a lot of holes in the silver collection.

     

    Anyway.... if anyone has any thoughts or suggestions, I'd love to hear them. I always appreciate the opinions and advice of other collectors.

    Stay away from silver! They are mediocre books at best. Only enjoy that stuff.You got your chocolate in my peanut butter! No, you got your peanut butter in my chocolate!
