There's a strange appeal to me for a book that shows it's age but still presents the cover image nicely. Maybe not five digits nice.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Point Five Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 I'm just happy it's an **actual CL25** and not that same "send money to me off ebay" CL25 scam we see over and over. MBFan, Chief1332, PeterPark and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty aggressive ask for a book that's conserved and still looks so rough. Wonder why they'd bother to do the leaf casting but not go all out and just have it professionally CTed. Granted I have no idea how much professional resto costs, but for what they're asking and what it looks like now you'd think it might be worth 1k or more to do that. I hope it sells. Not that it deserves to, but for other obvious reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C. Spaulding Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Since CL25 was mentioned above, I thought I would point out that there is a 4.0 white page copy that went up for sale on Instagram today. Dealer is asking 18k. I’m not sure how much room if any he has but let me know if you want the Instagram handle. I haven’t bought from him before but he does a lot of live sales and is pretty well known in the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that as well. Seems like a better deal than the Conserved one -- if you have that type of money, of course. I do love, however, the common IG theme of "OMG guys, I just got my most prized grail comic ever! I've been waiting my lifetime to get a copy. Let me make a video and talk about the hotness and get those likes and comments." Cut to 2 days later: Grail is for sale, with a price bump, of course. And this is not just the little guys, either. comicjack, Robot Man, buttock and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not exactly sure what that even means but I know it means I’m not buying it. comicjack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 I recently saw a book I was interested in on IG. Had one hand held cocked photo in a bag with reflections. With “make offer”. I sent the seller a DM asking for a grade. I got back “pretty nice but it has no back cover”. So I sent him an offer and never heard back… Who actually spends their money this way? Not me.

I was confused by the influx of unofficial sellers operating out of their briefcases at the recent Collectors Summit here in dallas, and was told they were IG sellers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
