  1. I'm going the other way, buying the slabs to complete the run, and then de-slabbing them. Mylars are the best storage long term, and they look better IMO.
  2. I'm glad it made it Jason, and it looks better in your picture than mine. Regards,
  3. That does look very nice other than the crease and chip there. Keep it for a while, the market should tell you whether it's destined to go up more soon, or to level off. Regards,
  4. Doubt it... The 24 9.0 LT sold for a low price also, then resold a week later for more than double. The GPA data did nothing for it's value,so doubt this "off mark" sale will have any affect on a 22's value. True, those kind of odd prices usually don't affect the short term sales, for people who see the GPA data. They will affect the averages for the past year averages, and older data. Meaning beyond very recent data, most people do not inspect the longer term data for those odd prices. Most people look just at the yearly averages or the curve, which has those odd prices in them. I appreciate the GPA price curves, but I wish they included much more data. CLink is a large enough neglected pool of data that GPA is flawed, factually flawed. Ideally with the proper data, I'd like to see two price curves, similar to the one that GPA shows for each grade. There should be one that uses straight lines to connect actual prices on a time line. But the one I want to see is an interpolation of that data plot, one that smooths out the peaks. What GPA does now looks like an artistic curve from each price point to the next, which is not an interpolation. It's just pretty, I want the most useful data, not art. That's why long ago I expressed a desire to see a competitor to GPA, somebody to step up and produce a more useful price curve. GPA is clearly satisfied with what they provide, they are not going to change it without being forced to. Regards,
  5. Ditto, and the buyer will likely know that, and resell it soon. Most buyers would see that as an upgrade opportunity, and sell it soon. So where to look, an upcoming auction, eBay again if it's a big name seller, or where?
  6. What, the Submariner isn't special enough? I'd like to read that one, and thousands of others of course.
  7. That's a shame, most of us always disclose any cracks or scratches etc. I would ask the seller to pay for the reholder fee, plus the shipping. I've sold a couple which had cracks that I showed in pictures beforehand. I sold those for about $25 or so less than if the case had not been cracked. I often rub out scratches from the CGC case which show greatly. I still have about ten I need to reholder because of cracks or being old labels. Regards,
  8. What happened with MC anyway.I recall the big sales figures way back when?
  9. Please check out my new sales thread for ASM, the #5, 15, 30, 32, and 192 are new for me to sell. Regards, http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=4546347
  10. Ditto, Cal is great to deal with, and quick to pay. Thanks again.
  11. Thanks Mike, now how long do the good boards last? I've had my Bill Cole boards for over 20 years now, and I've flipped most of them at least once.
  12. I agree with that. The best thing to do is just to post that a PM has been sent, which doesn't confuse anyone who might wonder if the book is taken yet. The end result would still be the same for the sales purposes. An unconditional still should win the book unless the seller had already agreed to something without posting it yet. IMO, the intention of saying pending the conditions in a PM should be stated just in the PM.
  13. Very nice copy. I'd like to go to some of the cons these days.
  14. Great books, all of them. I do love that so many people saved these comics, and we can still enjoy them after so long. I've got a Suscha News comic waiting for me at the PO, the ASM 27.
  15. thanks for the awesome deal (thumbs u I'm glad to help. That also helped me to get this book. Thanks Bob,
  16. Nice books Mark, and good pictures too. I've got to find a scanner to save time and make better images than with my camera.
  17. Thanks Bob, so CGC doesn't make them official until when they ship them out. Night,
  18. Psst, do you have an invoice #? With that you can try entering that # as a book, adding "001" to the end of it. My last three books I got that way after receiving the shipped email. I only had an invoice #, from Matt N. of CI. All CGC books start with 001 added to the seven digit invoice #, followed by "002" etc. Night,
