  1. Great book and awesome, quick shipping. Thanks Davitt!
  2. Such a bummer with the omicron flare up. Anyone know if there is going to be a CGC submission booth this year?
  3. Question for all you ASM collectors: How many of you all consider the annuals an integral or important part of your collections? I’m just a few issues away from completing my 50 to current issue run and (except for getting an issue #16 at some point) I think I am going to stop there. I’ve always been pretty ambivalent about the annuals and only have a handful of the ones that came out in the 80’s and 90’s. There is still though, a tiny little nagging voice in the back of my head, that chimes in on occasion to suggest to me that my run is not a complete run without the annuals. Most of the time I dismiss it but sometimes it’s harder and I actually start looking at listings and such. Out of curiosity, who collects the annuals here, and who doesn’t?
  4. I feel pretty confident in saying this collection is easily worth 10k to 20k. Lot of keys in there! Just glancing at the apparent conditions of 50, 101, 121, 129 that’s probably 3 or 4k right there. Some big books in the 80’s too. 238, 252, 300. If those books are in really great shape they could be worth a bunch (particularly 300). I’d definitely have to open up a few of those and see what shape they are in! Nice collection, thanks Dad!!
  5. Super communication, great books, very secure packaging, and quick shipping! Awesome seller, thanks!
  6. I was definitely thinking 7.0-7.5. Did you have it cleaned and pressed? Also, quick turnaround, did you pay for the expedited service?
  7. Not sure pressing will help much if any but Avery does both for one price so hoping it helps a little. First batch of books I’ve ever sent for c&p or grading so all part of the learning curve for me.
  8. Just sent this one in for a c&p then on to be graded. Predictions?
  9. Thanks and sorry for the double post, still figuring out the mechanics of this forum. Upgrading to a nicer copy is definitely my plan so trying to ensure max return when I sell this copy.
  10. Thanks for the replies. My intention is to sell this copy and upgrade. The (staple?) holes are right by the “H” and “E” in “The Punisher” on the cover. I guess getting a c&p and then having it graded is the surest way to maximize the return on this copy in order to subsidize payment for the upgrade.
  11. Hi all, new to the boards and considering having my copy of ASM 129 graded but not sure how it might fare. Obviously the book has some major flaws most notably the MVS being removed and the two puncture holes (staple holes?) that penetrate the whole book. Anyway, would appreciate your thoughts on this one. Thanks in advance! p.s. would getting it cleaned and pressed help very much?
  12. Hi all, been lurking for a bit and finally joined up with the idea of sending in some books to be graded soon which makes me probably number 200,000 and something with the same basic story 😂. At any rate I enjoy the community knowledge and good will these boards consistently provide and am glad to now be a part of it!
  13. Hello all, new to the boards. Debating on submitting my copy of ASM 129 and wondering about the grade. Obviously has some major flaws including the MVS being cut out and the two holes (staple holes?) that penetrate the whole book. Thoughts?
