You guys still trying to make rational out of the irrational?

 

Look where you are... this isn't the society on how to end world famine. This is geekdom at it's finest. We can debate this mess until the cows come home (thumbs u

My dib's on Thor when push comes to shove.

Hulk is powered by gamma radiation, Sup's likes solar radiation, and Thor's is go anywhere, go anytime diety azz-kickery!

Yeah, if you don't know me by now I have a complete dry sense of humor, and I tend to get to get offended very quickly.

How have you survived in this place for so long

A few books in recently

Mother of Mitra those are beauties

Hell yeah, thats a haul and a half!!!

Kov, take it to the thread in question, rather than turning the ST thread into some pedastal of yours.

If you pizzed at me for outting you over your ranting emails I received when I sold TTA's to Bill and not you, fine. But just take it elswhere.

Is that ok??? Please don't ruin a good thread.

That book could be sitting in a 9.4 holder, and no one would say otherwise. ....aside from being out of pocket $3,000

 

You'd know all about someone being 'out of pocket' wouldn't you there bud...

What are you, like some bug or something... shoo fly, shoo.

You PM me harrassing me, get offended when I tell you where you can put your sanctimonious self, and you STILL have utterly no idea of the details between me and Bill.

You really deserve a prize or something.

Anyone thinking of coughing up 3,500 clams for this.....

Speaking of fishy, did you ever send Bill his book or a refund?

Nope.

Are you in possession of all the facts or just randomly throwing mess out there?

My response of 25k was just from a search in another thread here. Someone said it was sold for 25K in 2007. Doesn't seem right to me though.

 

It may have sold for that, but it wasn't in 2007.

 

Think the vendor was asking $45k for it at SDCC around 2005 so would be surprised it he accepted a "low ball" offer of $25k straight cash.

 

Which is exactly why I said what I said. If it sold for $25k it was long before 2007. (thumbs u

Sold in 2002(?) by the Hawaiian guys - can't remember their name.

 

600% in 9 years is a pretty damn good return!

 

I'm not usually one of the conspiracy guys but this does seem damn fishy to me. I cant for the life of me understand how it jumped from 92k to the 150 asking price in 1 leap. If the guy bought it for 25k, there is no possible way he wouldnt have taken 125-140k, no way!

Actually over 9 years, it's a 22% IRR... pretty good in anyone's language.

But ya, knowing who was selling it, it's a fishy dela most likely.

Josh would off load his own mother for a margin!

He now faces mail fraud charges, up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted.

What does taking a in public getcha 2-5?

Killa!!!!!!

Bill, the NL #95 will be your's... it's in the works

No one bought a ped lately???

Here is another CERTIFIED FREAK OF NATURE from the CGC Gallery...GOD BLESS...

 

Anybody know where that #16 came from? I think it's brand new in the latest Census. Easy to assume it's a pressed 9.4, but I really have no clue where it came from.

Check Captain Trips census run for his FF's, he's the resub king of late. He's been converting books up a notch or two on a regular basis for some time now.

Thought I'd add this beauty...

That's a very sweet book, what are we looking at VF+?

So whats the take on this oddity, admittedly the first time I've heard of, or seen before...

Pedigree listing...

TURTLEMANIA SPECIAL #1 NM/Mint White pages. Highest on census, low print run. This is not only the highest on the CGC census, it's the ONLY 9.8 copy on the CGC census. Extremely hard to find, let alone in HG, there are only 2 cps. graded under this at 9.6 and 9.4. First public sale offering, a true must for hardcore turtle fans. DETAILS- Cover Credits: Peter Laird (Pencils) Kevin Eastman (Inks) Don Orapallo (color overlay) (Colors) typeset (Letters). Cover Feature: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. Genre: Funny Animal. Indexer notes: Limited edition booklet that features unpublished T.M.N.T. artwork and exclusive previews of then upcoming stories. The material gathered for this publication was provided directly to Robert Wilson by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman. Turtlemania was produced in three editions: Regular (print run of 3,000 with white covers); Silver #1 (print run of 100, autographed); Gold (print run of 10, autographed with original sketch on back cover).

Recent find,..seemed harder to find than #93. in HG

Beach is that the Hollywood Hills copy from Socal?

BLAIN

... bunch of slack-jawed f aggots around here...

No one thought to mention the recent sale in the clink auction....

Not bad buying at $3,000 (thumbs u

Didn't you get your warning

Go ahead make my day

Matt- Is it true that the book is going to have a 'centerfold' of Ponsetti? jb

 

yes, bottomless and unshaved.

So it's coming foil sealed like Madonna's book

.... a collectors edition, about collectors edition's, me likes it

Picked this up from my LCS the other day. Its not the best but its all mine.

One of my top 5 favourite covers of all time.

Never have you seen a SH portrayed like this, Frank Miller

Ya, got to say that one is a bit mystifying... there's a 9.4 coming up in the next Heritage auction.

Gift grade!! nice one (thumbs u

Ya my thoughts exactly. Sharp colours are sharp colours.

And the rest of the book presents really well with it's detractions spread around nice and evenly, rather than sitting in one grusome corner/edge, or some such.

For a big key without the big price tag, thats a firm winner!
