Thank god, the longer that sat there the more my willpower was being eroded.

If it is Spawn #1, and he has a box that's consistently in the 9's to high 9's, he should definitely get it all graded and cash in. I would like to know for sure though

How did you get on the ceiling????

Wait, I thought we already established you don't have a taser?

Is AoD just posting over and over to try to get the last post before it gets locked?

I feel like I might be being bullied...

Why you gotta pull me in to this?

Something About Mary is my favorite Cameron Diaz movie for sure. And one of my favorite ever comedies. Not too many comedies have me laughing like that did.

*shakefist*

I mean, if I'm not walking away, you and your taser are most definitely part of the equation.

Yea, was no discussion as of yet. Probably never will be at this point, don't want to encourage him/her.

Here, let me show you what 1 of my first submission books looked like. I will also C&P the graders notes for you. I LITERALLY had no idea what I was sending in, it's a, sometimes painful, learning process. I had zero idea to look for any of this stuff. I just thought "It's old and everyone loves Iron Man, send it in!": Grader Notes: extra staple not manufacturing heavy creasing to cover missing page(s) 4 affects story

Perfect, you guys are awesome, thanks for checking that out. I can now email back with snark.

God I hope so, nothing is better than a bunch of gunshots set to Sister Christian!

Galen and his taser are exactly what I need!

Not yet, he just got back to me and asked for a number for him to call me. I'm debating what to do with it now.

I'd much rather be heartbroken that it's not real than spend money and be heartbroken I got taken for a ride. This is why I posted it here, for sure. You guys are way more suspicious and detail oriented than me.

I do see what you're talking about as far as that top area looking like the edge of an inner well now. So, take a pic of a slabbed Batman #1 to make it look real, then just inside pics of a repro.. Man, that's pretty slick work if that's what he's doing.

lol, I toldja I live in Florida. There's no way this kid goes anywhere without his conceal carry permit and carry gun. And, in the case of something like this, other people. If you just mean robbed as far as the book being a fake. Maybe. I still kinda want to see it, hear what the guy has to say, etc...

I agree, that's why I'm trying to figure out if it's worth my effort. It definitely screams too good to be true. But, what if it isn't? :P Though I didn't see the "in a slab" details in that first pic. Not sure I see it even now.

Yea man, believe me I know. That's why I'm flip flopping on this. Finding a raw Batman #1 in that condition seems next to impossible. But, aside from things like you're saying here "That paper and spine just don't look like they should be that nice" I can't find much wrong. Seeing it in person will help for sure.

lmao, that would be my luck, ending up with a stolen book.

You're not wrong. I am making the assumption this is a much older man, being that I live in Florida, who may have had that sitting in a bag/box somewhere forever.

Hah, I have to assume I'm not the only person he's talking to about this. But, if I get the green light we'll do a full on zoom call for it :P

Could also be restored and he'd take me for it I suppose, cause I have no idea how to find resto. But I'm ok with a purple label Batman #1 also if I have to. Or, if I get that, sending it back to get resto removed and accepting the lower grade.
