Purchased Star Wars #4 from Jeff and it was shipped very, very quickly. The book was packaged well, the grade was spot on and the price was more than fair. Jeff responds quickly and I highly recommend him. Thanks, Jeff!

just a year or two after this, i saw that xmen 1 was worth $400 in vf/nm condition in one of these price guides. i convinced my dad to give me $400 so we could invest in one for the future, and i went to one of the comic cons in nyc. no one had a nice copy on display there, and i returned the money to my father, disappointed. it was the most money i had ever held at one time. years later at sdcc i was amazed at just how many copies i saw on walls behind dealer booths.
That sounds really disappointing. Did they have copies, but only in poor condition? Did you and your dad get a 2nd chance at some other book, perhaps?
You do have a good point, though. I remember trying to buy X-Men #94 several times from mail-order places but they didn't have it. Back then you had to list alternates, and I frequently wasn't able to get every thing on my order.

Here's another catalog, this one from Maxwell Seeley (expired Mar 31, 1981). ASM #1 ($300) was more expensive than AF15 ($275), IH 181 was $10. I did buy X-Men #94 for $75 (not from this catalog) but that was about all I could afford back then. I didn't realize at the time, though, that these prices are only for good, collectible condition (pre-1978). For fine condition, you need to double the price. It's mentioned in the 4th and 5th paragraph on pg. 1 (which I never saw until recently). Not exactly sure what his "good" and "fine" grades would correspond to on our current grading scale, though - maybe Fine and VF/NM?

That ToS #63 is a sleeper. Love that book.
Great thread - what can we expect next Sunday?
