OK - the seller was ft88.

 

It usually takes ft88 a while to respond to pms.

 

Yes but his dealings have been problem free for me.

I agree. Grading, Pricing and Packaging have been spot on!

Awesome, John! You're well on your way with that SA Spidey run!

 

(Just be glad you got any books at all from that "comicdey" seller. I hear bad things about that guy.)

Now that you've sold your ASM 300 in 9.8, are you going to buy your ASM 1?

Not nearly as cool as an AF15, but I thought it was worth sharing a couple of recents pickups from comicdey :

Big Thanks go out to comicdey for helping me fill in some gaping holes in my collection (e.g ASM, TOS and Silver Surfer). Here's some samples:

A couple more VCC purchases... thanks to seank for these.

 

 

If I could just find a nicely priced 92, then I'll only have from 1 - 10 to go...

 

What grade are you looking for?

 

I think John is probably looking for #92 the way I was looking for #41 for a while. He (reasonably) wants a real bargain, since there's loads of mid-to-high-grade copies out there, and because he (once again reasonably) figures he's one of the very few people actively looking for this issue!

 

I think we found him a nice F/VF at 50% off from Jamie Newbold at SoCalComics.com.

 

Many Thanks to FFB!

The book came this week. The grading was spot on and at 50% off...

These just arrived:

Kudos to Marvel Collector for the ASM 32. It came as advertised and the packaging was top notch!

Thanks to FT88 for a great ASM 24!

hmmm....I would take the Larson MMC5 8.0 (Gerber's copy, I believe)...there is only 1 Larson 8.0 MMC5...but there are many more chances to replace the other 6 books in approx conditions, and I believe the desired retail is approx the same...

The six books...

my best guess it 12-15,000 comics and comic-related magazines, but that could be too high. I will have a better sense of things when I set up my comic room!

 

Does anyone think that this could strain the structure of a solidly built, but 100 year old, Victorian, if I spread it out over one room on an upper floor? Would that really weigh more than some heavy pieces of furniture and what not? I guess we're talking about the equivalent of 60-70 long boxes.

Blob, that's a considerable amount of weight for any home. I recall that there are a few civil/structural engineers on the boards (comicdey comes to mind) that you may wish to pm regarding your question.

Yep, I'm a cheapskate at heart!

 

now you tell me

That's why I do time payments.

Only 2500...

Haven't visited this thread in a dog's age. Anyone got any new early Spidey pickups to show?

 

Just a heads-up...I'll be putting a bunch of silver Spideys up for sale at this weekend's virtual convention, including a nice low-grade ASM #4 with the first Sandman. See you then!

I usually don't post until the books arrives but...

Neil Gaiman's Sandman

Communication, communication, communication!.

 

*spoon* happens and as long as your honest and explain your situation in a timely manner, there should be no mud-slinging. I've had non-payers and late payers and as long a I'm aware of what's in their head, I'm fine.

 

It's the blatant non-payers, liars, string-alongers we need to out here. Honest mistakes or unforseen financial hardships are forgivable. This is not ebay and we should strive to be better than ebay.

 

 

 

,

Sure I see a good deal and try to buy when the funds aren't always available, but I make sure to let the buyer know.

 

Seriously bad form...if you don't have the money immediately available to buy, refrain from using the . It's not a hard concept. Sellers shouldn't have to wait for you to get your finances straight...

Sometimes I think it does well for common courtesy. Centaurman let me do time payments on a book, because I couldn't pass up on it due to the overwhelming good deal. My budget is small so it helps out a lot.

The difference is that I'm sure Centaurman knew that you wanted to do time payments up front. Time payments are a beautiful thing...

Not to sound like a broken record (how many in advance have said the same thing?)...

Thanks to Nick for some great high grade 70's Marvels. First Class!

Yes Bang please keep posting them ( without cropping the tops if possible)

 

 

 

I would recommend that you try to get CGC to give the books a pedigree and have a small quantity of the graded so you can see what they come up with. Also try to get them in the book on pedigrees as soon as possible. All of this should help the eventual sales value of the books for whenever you or you heirs do sell.

 

I am sure your intentions are pure...but this is over the line. CGC decides nothing about pedigrees, the hobby does.

 

People just sit back and enjoy what he is willing to share....jon

 

Amen.

Can we see some Tecs or Timely's? Pretty please...

Sweet Red Raven 1!

A batch came back from the Graders today, you have seen these in the raw, now the slabbed versions.

My small but key group of Timely's ... most of these I have wanted for about 25 years, since I was a lad...

 

 

 

...And a killer group shot of those Timelys! Man!

 

You will probably want to unload your Science Comics #3 and #4 at this point, as they clearly fall outside your collecting interest.

some bronze age spidey's thanks to 1koko for a great deal on these run fillers for me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Since when did 9.4's become fillers?
