Does any body have a good dealer opinion on the best dealers to get HG “raw” books from? :gossip:

 

Meaning 9.2 and above.

 

There are some great dealers out there, but some will just submit the best stuff to CGC and put the under copies out as “raw” for sale at the cons.

 

I have mine that I know, but I was just wondering everyone's else's opinion.

 

Dale Roberts is the first booth I look for in a show...

 

:gossip:

Dave Kapelka -- heard of him because of FK's recent purchases from him. How do I get in touch with him?

Did you get a reply ? I'd like his info also.

 

He is northcoastnostalgia on Ebay and he only sells at cons, ebay and through his stores in Ohio. No website. The con stock is different than the store stock so the better items are usually only found at cons...

No offense to Dale, but his prices are extremely steep ...

Too broad of a brush, Danny. I have gotten some really good bulk deals on a couple of CGC groupings from Dale.

Maybe so, but the stuff I've seen offered here had pretty healthy prices, and you know I'm not a cheapskate so that's saying something....

At the NY Comic Con, I looked through Dale Roberts stuff "Raw" and CGC books, and I only found one book "raw" on my want list that I needed, and his CGC books were well overpriced.

 

So at a first impression, Dale Roberts to me is not a go to dealer right off the bat.

 

Dave K. and Bob Storms to me are the fairest dealers I have ever dealt with, and off course Gary Platt.

I guess that depends on what you are looking for. I bought a few gems at Dale's booth. I thought prices were fair. He also had a collection of Matt Baker books that was almost completely gone within two cons.

Forgive me, but who was Matt Baker? (shrug)
