  1. Very nice books CG. That 57 is sweet and hard to come by in the high grade arena.
  2. At least you people like me for my toys.
  3. Thanks. I do too. There is one on Clink that I almost bought, but this one was almost $150 cheaper. Go figure.
  4. I don't know about the trimming but both bidder 6 and bidder 3 look like shills. Bidder 6 has zero feedback. Stay away. I don't have much experience with shills. I see what you mean about the bid history. As it stands, doesn't it seem that this seller is going to get stuck "selling" the book to himself? After all, the highest legitimate bid was either $599 or $1000 if bidders 6 and 3 are shills. (Bidder 5 looks suspicious too.) Is he hoping for someone to bid above the $5300 current bid? I avoid buying any raw books on ebay unless they are from dealers I trust who know how to grade. I agree. I try to avoid raw books if at all possible. I have been lit too many times in the past.
  5. Very nice book and they are usually spot on.
  6. I'm getting close to finishing my 94-143 run. I might even put together the top scoring run if I can find a 9.8 copy of 107. [Don't look back Dr. Watson ] That's right Doctor. By this time next week I'll be number two and then it's all about catching you Heavy hangs the head that wears the crown.
  7. I'm getting close to finishing my 94-143 run. I might even put together the top scoring run if I can find a 9.8 copy of 107. [Don't look back Dr. Watson ] When I'm done with that one, I'll focus more on my Amazing Spider-Man 100-200 run which should keep me occupied for quite a while. I've picked up some nice bronze Thors and Captain Americas recently which are fun and challenging because the census numbers are much lower than for the more mainstream titles. I'm also getting close to finishing my Wolverine 1-189 run and my pre-Unity Valiants and Valiant variants. Next up in the copper/modern age is finishing my copper X-Men and Amazing Spidey runs.
  8. The question you really need to be asking yourself is: Does it really matter whose on top as long as everyone is satisfied?
  9. I am closer to finishing mine, then you are yours. You sell me what I need. I am tired of opening plastic bags.
  10. Pick a different title and work on completing that one, only maybe not as high grade. Just white pages or something like that. Maybe quit and just sell everything. Depends on the mood. If I quit, I would miss some of the people in the board though. Just a thought.
  11. Thank you AlexH. The SS UXM 450 is awesome. (thumbs u
  12. Not yet! Not yet! I've got some 9.8 modern UXM on the way.
  13. Rarely have I heard something so intelligent spoken so simply and yet so interestingly. PS. I talk to MK and JC a lot.
  14. I'm tearing open those plastic bags as fast as I can.
