  1. Didn't notice the or best offer on the listing the first go around... but it doesn't say best offer accepted like the other one? What am I missing here?
  2. These are half the copies of Future State Wonder Woman 1 Cover B (1st Yara Flor) that I ordered from TFAW. Other half came in yesterday. I have never been this high on a new character let's see how bad I get burned
  3. What a day it's been. My apologies for failing to post more books today. with 5 minutes remaining in 5/29, in the one true chosen time zone at least, let me post this one so I am at least technically correct, the best kind of correct. I wasn't expecting these books in until next month so I was pleasantly surprised to see these on my doorstep this afternoon. I have a couple copies of this off getting graded so I feel okay letting this one go so I can try and complete this dang ASM V1 run. Tired of my blathering yet? ASM #194. First black cat. CGC 7.5 $299. Last sale on Ebay was $650(!). I suspect funny business there but if I'm wrong this is a hell of a deal Note: This book was pressed and cleaned prior to grading
  4. Agreed. I haven't had trouble with Ebay. I have gotten burned with auctions a few times but that's a known risk of doing auctions. I use buy it nows a lot more on raw issues and only use auctions for some graded books that I know are in high demand currently. Other than that I stick with BINs and I've had a good experience with those. I am not always trying to have the cheapest copy up and once you have enough volume up stuff will sell here and there anyway
  5. Bingo. IMO there won't always be sooooooooo much space between the 9.8 and the 9.6 as there is now. That gap will close some. I'd take the 9.6.
  6. I definitely have champagne tastes! One of my worst characteristics unfortunately. I'll probably ease up once I get a better sense of pricing. I would drop mid 4-figures to get Jones to do my FSWW1. Don't think that'd be enough though I figured that a lot of the ones I posted were the longest of longshots, especially folks that still get a ton of work today like Bagley or Ross. And the artists I know off the top of my head are of course the very most famous in the game so... I guess I need to pay more attention to who has done Spider-Man on some of these side stories and mini-series and broaden my perspective. When I get books signed I am only interested in getting members of the working team to sign the book. I know some people are into getting Stan Lee's signature on random Spider-Man titles but... that never made sense to me. So in looking to commission my first sketch my thought process was similar... get the artist that penciled the book to do a cover for you or find someone with a major tie to the character. But that gets to that point of only very very famous artists for major characters like Spidey... I'll have to observe the space for a while longer before I wade in I think If all it took was being a creep I'd be deep in this game already! but seriously this is really good advice and something I'm going to definitely do. I am eager for convention season to kick off this summer so I'll see if I can get anything figured out in the coming months. Thanks for this tip! Thank all of you for being willing to share some info with me, I really appreciate your time. I'm going to give this thread a follow and try to soak up some more game
  7. I'm not very sure. I really want to get one of the three I mentioned as they were all cover artists on FSWW1 or Wonder Girl #1 and Jones is of course her creator. So those are long-term goals if any of them ever open a commissions list. I took a look at the site that @ADAMANTIUM was so kind as to provide and it would also be really, really cool to see Frank Cho's take on Yara but it doesn't look like he's taking commissions right now either. Not surprising . I have a good number of FSWW1 blanks. I want at least one from those 3 ladies above but besides that anyone that is known for good girl art would be cool to get for these. Bruce Timm? Adam Hughes? I don't know many artists known for cheesecake covers or whatever they call them Wouldn't mind suggestions! I have a Spider-Man blank cover or three that I'd love to get pretty much anyone who has ever penciled Amazing or a major Spider-Man series on... Bagley ... Ramos... JRJR... Larsen... Ottley... Frenz... Zeck... Ross... Buscema... Pichelli One is Amazing #1 from 2014 so I'd also be interested in anyone that does a good Silk on one of those so JSC potentially? Besch? Frison again? Lupacchino is on the site @ADAMANTIUM mentioned but doesn't look like she's open for commissions right now... I really don't know enough to know what I want yet but I have been wasting a chance to get some cool stuff one and I'm done with that Maybe I'll get some ideas from following this thread idk

  9. Spider-verse 2 is coming... Spider-Ham was a favorite from the first film. Who knows what direction they'll go in the 2nd, but he'll be in there somewhere He's in here too.

  15. 2nd appearance of the Molten Man. Amazing Spider-Man #35. Detached at the top staple. $35
