The-Collector Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=111133820600 This raw purchase has shipped today from CGC in it's new 9.8 white pages case. Call it my modern grail as it's been tough begging and threatening everyone to part with theirs. A best offer of $125 was accepted and the book got pressed and graded. I feel like I earned this one. I made offers on that one too. Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsJustRyan Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 The top four I got in this morning. The fifth one I got in two weeks ago from Andy (Beige) and just scanned it this morning. A nice mix if I may say so... The scan doesn't do the FF52 justice (presents better than the scan IMHO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBedrock Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 One of my favorite Marvel comics of all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 One of my favorite Marvel comics of all. Mine also! When I first started collecting Marvels, I wrote a letter to them asking, if they had any back issues for sale. The only one, on the list that they sent me, that I needed was FF Annual #1. I sent them .35 for it and got it in a couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony D Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Do you still have it ?...That would be really cool if you did ! No, I sold the bulk of my collection to a dealer in 1989 when my wife and I were buying our house. If I still had that collection today, it would be worth more than the house!

We did this very thing about 18 months ago. In just this short time, the books I sold have gone up quite a bit....I'm trying to replace some of them and I am getting sticker shock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeypost Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 (edited) but the cream of this collection was this book I have an extra 9.8 white pages if you want to swap for one of those high grade DC bronze first issues I don't have... Seriously, this type of thing happens to minor leaguers like me, not big leaguers like you. The fading impacted the grade that severely? Funny, Greggy gets 2 9.9's in his submission but all eyes focus on this turd Edited September 17, 2013 by joeypost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
