Beanie Babies? didn’t think so, tell me when someone decides to manipulate that market, my wife is sitting on bins of these -
if you don't go the signature series route I suggest just seeking out a book that has an issue release date in the month and year of your son's birth, even better if you can get one where the issue # matches up with day of birth as well get it graded and the slab will have the month/year of the book listed on the label

Does restoration decrease a comic's grade?
StillOnly25Cents replied to Rayhock's topic in Newbie Comic Collecting Questions
must have been one of the “the grader was having a bad day” situations people like to use as excuses for grades coming back worse than they wanted, even though there are supposed to be 3 graders that look at a book -
per the submission instructions Put ALL ungraded books in window bags or they will not be accepted. You can purchase window bags HERE .https://www.cgccomics.com/news/article/8763/ CGC handlers don’t wish to spend their time opening and removing books that aren’t window bagged, not very efficient, puts them more at risk for doing damage to your book, and also does not provide a desired space allocated for where you want the signature. Will they truly reject your book, refund your money and return it to you unsigned? I don’t know for sure but I would suggest unboxing your packaging and window bag the books ... if you are unfamiliar on how to create your own and do this there are numerous tutorials available on this site or the web GL

their descriptions are even more confusing than CGG so does the $120 fee cover the sig and slabbing or just the sig? what are the other minimum costs? I assume what we pay to ship to them and what we choose for them to charge us for return shipping .... anything else I’m missing? really wish CGC was running this one

So Which SA Mega Key Will Surge This Year?
StillOnly25Cents replied to Jaydogrules's topic in Silver Age Comic Books
Iron Man, Cap, and Thor all had their own movies prior to The Avengers, we won’t see the same for any of Marvel’s first family. FF already inherits the stigma of 3 brutally bad Fox films. Not saying the franchise won’t be well handled in Marvel Studio’s hands, just saying you might want to reset expectations. If anything I’d bet on the mutants. -
Silver age comics that are heating up
StillOnly25Cents replied to rabidwolf's topic in Silver Age Comic Books
I don't think it is the MCU getting too powerful, it is the ease at which people can use social media (YouTube) as a platform and be an "influencer" personality you watch some of these speculation vids and 90% of what they say in regards to a character appearing in the MCU and a related book appearance is "you never know" Agnes from WandaVision becomes Agetha Harkness and then it tailspins into it's like we need to spec on the first appearance of her bunny rabbit that appeared in the show because maybe the bunny rabbit later becomes White Rabbit (ok, no one truly said that from what I saw but that is the mentality).... as if FF 94 should be a $100 book just people playing off of people's FOMO -
Silver age comics that are heating up
StillOnly25Cents replied to rabidwolf's topic in Silver Age Comic Books
spec sales like this make no sense to me Mephisto hasn’t seen 1 second of screen time in the MCU Thanos carried a storyline over multiple MCU movies and I can get an Iron Man 55 in the same 7.5 grade for $725 (at least that is what current FMV is) now I know Thanos isn’t on the cover or IM 55 and that SS 3 is a bit older of a book and maybe SS is harder to get in that grade being a square-bound book but come on now, who is the bigger bad I continue to wonder how much of this is market manipulation -
