aszumilo Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I am waiting for almost the same exact books, except mine is the regular USM #1. Both are 9.8 also. Nice. It took me about five 9.6's before I got a 9.8 copy of the regular USM #1. Got very lucky on the blue target, though. It was a raw ebay purchase, and the one and only I bought. Mine were both raw E-Bay books. I thought the DR might have a shot at 9.9 as it looked pretty much flawless. Guess they saw something I missed. The USM I thought would have been a 9.6 at most. Guess I saw something they missed (or my imagination was running rampant). Happy either way with the books. Still looking for that Blue Doc Ock USM 1, at a good price. You may have beaten me on the bid for that one. I have just about all of the USM run, except for a couple of the variants. like the Doc Ock cover and the DF #1, White #1 and a couple others. My books got marked as shipped yesterday, so should have them in a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aszumilo Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Just got these in today. Sorry for the pics, my scanner doesn't fit the whole slab and the scans come out kind of crappy. Dark Reign: The List (Villain Variant) Ultimate Spider-man #1 - thought this was a 9.6 when I sent it in Batman The Killing Joke 1st print Muppet Show #4 - C2E2 Wrigley Field Convention Edition X-Men v2 #25 - thought it was a 9.2-9.4 CGC messed the description up. Should be the variant cover with Magneto Hologram, they have it listed as the regular edition with Gambit hologram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mio Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 X-Men v2 #25 - thought it was a 9.2-9.4 CGC messed the description up. Should be the variant cover with Magneto Hologram, they have it listed as the regular edition with Gambit hologram Man, this was one of the first books I remember buying when I was 13. Sold mine 3 years ago I think. The 9.0 is probably a let-down for you, but it still has nostalgia value for many! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Robinson Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 The agony and the ecstasy. I got back an ASM 298 that I thought would be at worst a 9.2 - CGC 8.5. I got back a Star Wars #1 that I bought on these boards that I thought would be a 9.4 - CGC 9.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger let down is that they couldn't tell the difference between Gambit and Magneto in the hologram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I saw that. You posted the same book twice (9.6), and at first I thought you had two copies. Just wanted to reinforce the amazingness of this book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telerites Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 My first pre-screen came in today 9.8s with all white pages - all bought off the stands by me - multiples and all. Took a while but I'm happy with the ones that made the cut: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
