  1. Sweet book! This book just goes to show that you can have inconspicuous writing on a comic and STILL get a very high grade on it.
  2. You're quite welcome sir. Glad you like the books! (thumbs u
  3. Here are the latest additions to my double cover collection... Conan the Barbarian #3 Sgt. Fury #71 Both are about a FN/VF on the inside cover.
  4. According to the CGC census, there have been 14 copies of X-Men #104 graded CGC 9.8 and 60 copies graded CGC 9.6. So that particular issue in 9.6 is not that rare. It really depends on what you want to do with them. If you like the X-Men #104 so much that you want to keep it....then keep it. Or you could sell all 4 slabs, make around $500 to $600 off of them, then turn around and use that money to submit more comics for CGC grading. It ultimately boils down to what you the owner really wants to do.
  5. Since you like the X-Men so much I'd keep that one. Avengers seem to be pretty hot right now and those other 2 contain some character that will never last anyway so you might as well sell those 3.
  6. Starting today, I will be having an "endless" sales thread in the Mixed Age Threads section. There will be Marvels, DC's, Atlas, Charltons, Dells, Gold Keys, Harveys, Image, Whitmans....you name it, it will be in there eventually. There will be both raw and slabs but mostly raw stuff. Anything from low grade to high grade. Considering that I just lost my day job and will be having carpal tunnel surgery twice in the next 2 months, I'll have plenty of time to list stuff on a daily basis.
  7. Daniel, Thanks to you for the quick payment and great communication. (thumbs u
  8. Kudos to 2 boardies for my recent VCC purchases: 143ksk for a nice Captain Atom #80. Need only 1 more for the full run. greggy for a sweet War Is Hell #11. Both comics were accurately graded and well-packaged. Thank you gentlemen!
  9. Won these from a local auction house in the past couple of weeks:
  10. If there's a door leading to this backroom, maybe you should consider adding a dead-bolt lock as well. That way you can keep it open when you're at home but locked when the daughters have guests over.
  11. Kudos to r1982rhoads for the purchase and quick payment of a Golden Age slab. Thanks David!
  12. Man,what a sad time for the boards. Indeed. I know I haven't been here long but the last few weeks things have really got out of control. Seems like it's just like the H1N1 flu bug going around. Whatever it is, it seems to be infecting a number of normally honest sellers to the point where they're trying some very underhanded selling tactics just to make a buck here and there.
  13. Kudos to HouseofComics.com for quick payment on a nice package of comics and working a Hawkman for Gorgo/Konga trade. Thanks Marc!
  14. By the way, do you know if an officer showed up to the house and spoke with the parents? That is definitely what was needed most to drive a point home on top of the funds being returned. I was just wondering the same thing. Don't let him off easy!
  15. I think I'm gonna agree with the 6.0 grade considering the CBC's at the URC and LRC.
  16. Shhhwwweeettt!! Looks like a 9.0/9.2 from the front....maybe better. (thumbs u
  17. Man, that is one VERY nice collection you came across. How long ago did you buy these? He/she was obviously a big DC collector.
  18. If the rest of the books are in the same kind of condition as these then yeah, I'd give it strong consideration.
  19. Major kudos to the best seller on the CGC boards...... bghkoyama! I just received another shipment of 4 slabs from Brian with a nice freebie slab thrown in as well. Excellent packing job as always. (thumbs u I've decided that Brian is one of two things....the next Santa Claus or just plain . He sells you slabs at way lower than GPA, has you pay only 1/2 of what it costs to ship the comics then throws freebies in to boot! But I don't care what he is! As long as he continues to give great bargains I will continue to buy! Thanks once again Brian for such great deals and outstanding service!
  20. Kudos back at ya Evan for a nice, smooth deal. (thumbs u
