I am going to laugh if this whole thing was part of Dylan's plan to "destroy CGC".

 

His "SYSTEM" is working....

Dupecake being involved wouldn't surprise me. I'm pretty sure he sold out of a Kew Gardens address back in the day and I know one of his shills at one point had an Arizona address. Which are 2 of the current addresses in question. And we know he used shills to sell his material as well. 

Maybe he has Dylan and his System also...

Yes CW...I've come across so Many NICE ASM 3's and 20's being listed for $$$. I will ask is the pin-up present...the say "the story is complete"...I say count the pages....I get "Oh I didn't know it had a pin-up...". Some are legit...some are less than scrupulous....and these are the RawDogs.

Just a reference to what I said about 200 pages ago...concerning pin-ups...I noticed in "Comic Selects" sold page he had a nice 7.5 FF 4 for $5500. That issue has a Mr Fantastic Pin-up. As I stated (because I'm a Missing Pin-up Freak) many High Value Keys had Marvel Masterwork Pin-ups. This avenue would have been a pricey in, but a nice reward. Just spit balling about another area of deceit for these bums. IE: FF 2,3,4 ASM 3,20,21,23 DD 5, 7 etc

Whats his channel?

eta nick....he has a whole series on grading per grade, and a great cheat sheet I still use

For years, CGC did not have a green signature series label. That changed

Personally, if I owned this book, I would rather it say Qualified 6.0, than be called a .5.

I own a beautiful looking ASM 3, that is a green label 7.5.

 

 

 

 

Oh yes for sure...but with 4.0 ish and down it's a Blue Preference for me. JMHO.

Indeed... why would anyone NOT request a blue label on an incomplete book if that's an option? Seems not to be quite right.

I have requested a blue .05 on an ASM 20 before that was missing the MF'n pin-up (as many are) .......because it was not over a 4.0 with it and people hate green. If it is a high grade I may have gone the green route.

Eta Nick sure knew when to sell at the peak and bail out

Plus he had a great method (never auctions) of jumping on high grades well below FMV...but as he always said...you gotta know how to grade. His grading cheat sheet is still my template.

Really great work!

I'm in....thanks.

I miss @etanick. 

I'm with you...his grading breakdowns taught me ton's. Plus I loved his rants.

For years I've used PlastX (a headlight cleaner) it works nicely on light to medium scuff and light scratches. However it requires a whole lot of elbow grease, once I even badly heat friction burned my thumb. Perhaps I'll test out this Polywatch?

I use Novus 1 and 2 for scarce vintage plastic radios
