Stevenrams Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 You saw were a 9.4 76 went for around $9100 at the last ComicLink auction? Just nuts Sure I saw it. I've also read all the posts about the reasons for the high price this book fetches when it comes to market: scarcity in high grade, the book having slipped under the radar when it first hit the stands in 1970 etc. (See Bronze Age Thread) I remembered people were willing to buy my copy for $2000 back in ''03 and '04. It is, of course, one of my prized possessions--one of the great covers of the Bronze Age--and, most importantly, of of the great storylines in the history of the medium. IMHO, this book is to comic books what Vittorio De Sica's film "The Bicycle Thief", is to the history of the cinema--both are neorealist classics.

Big Daddy Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 I've decided to concentrate on mainly completeing my 76-89 Adams run which is difficult with my collecting OCD. So if any one knows somebody who is looking for a Brave & the Bold 29 in 2.0 let me know as I'm looking to trade or sell a few issues to further my collecting of this run.

rob_react Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I just got in a #67 CGC 9.0. Seller shipped it in a flat rate envelope. Cracked case? Yes, cracked case. I get a good run of sellers on ebay and I forget how bad some sellers can be. Thankfully the book is in okay shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 That really sucks, Rob. I hope you nuke his rating unless he agrees to compensate you for reslabbing fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peewee22 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I think I've seen a zillion cracked-slab threads in the past month on the Boards. C'mon people, get the word out to shippers & dummies: It's ok to put in a flat envelope to keep it flat and rigid, but box it up and load it with lotsa packing materials !! Priority envelopes and boxes are FREE at the USPS. Shredded newspaper or styrafoam peanuts are good packers (the foam peanuts ain't cheap). Treat all books to be shipped like they are 9.6 AF15'ers !
