  1. Rick invented the “price per point” (idea) term.
  2. Are they still unslabbed? Keep them that way.
  3. In one Overstreet I believe Spidey 1 surpassed AF15.
  4. I agree. As long as prices don't overtake the thread I'm with a mix.
  5. Yep, seen a 7/31 AD and on AF15 saw a 5/31 AD before.
  6. Actually presents much better than the grade. Buy the book not the grade.
  7. Yeah but Spidey is a real guy and Mantle is just a made up character in skin tights.
  8. Yeah, a lot of the baby boomers (like me) can relate to Spiderman the character. We rode bikes, played outside till dark, and ate junk food. I grew up in a town of 1500. 2 stores and one had comics on a spinner rack. Spidey brought out the emotions in me, period. I remember reading Spidey 90 and how inspiring it was. The toppled chimney on Capn Stacey to save the child from being harmed. Gave his life up to save the child. Then Spidey took him to a quiet place where he breathed his last words letting the Webslinger know he knew he was Peter and to take good care of Gwen. Tragically, Gwen would meet her demise 30 issues later. Those issues stuck with me a long time, the untimely death of those characters. I'm not sure if the newer generation can relate to Spidey like this. His shadow has followed me for a lifetime.
  9. Incredible prices lately. Take a bow Spidey.😁
  10. The front cover looks smudgey on the 8.5. Is this just the scan??
  11. A1 is still THE book. Always has always will.
  12. Anyone been to Heritage in Dallas? I know Rob has he lives on the floor. My son and I did in 2011 to view my win (only 6 hours away). White glove treatment we felt special. Had 2 chairs set up for us and a nice agent brought the book for viewing. We left without the book to save the sales taxes (shipping v. picking it up and THAT was tough). I'm sure that's changed now. Very nice experience.
  13. I think we're having more fun than the dude who spent $3.6M.
  14. Yep the gavel has dropped. Auction over. I’m sure HA has a disclaimer “we are not responsible for software glitches...”
  15. Hmmm, I’ve been knowing this since ‘69 when I bought Spidey #73 in a multi mag pack at a place called Magic Mart. And we’ve been friends ever since.
  16. Are we thinking there could have been some bids lost/foregone in this glitch?
  17. off topic, but here it is (not my book). My fave AF15 of all.
