Point Five Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I first bought a few Bakers in 2014... to flip them to those suckers who seemed to be paying outlandish prices for lowly romance books. Welp, you can see how that worked out. OtherEric and grendelbo 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know at any given time there's like 30 of these in VG- or worse shape for sale on eBay, but I like the genuine file copies and this one has the best back cover of the 3 Baker Lassies IMO. Love the painted covers by Gollub too. I took your advice and picked up a so-called 6.0 on ebay for 11 bucks...It's good to be ME... szucchini and Yorick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Qua-Brot Posted September 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2023 Shameless plug department (and if this isn't allowed on this thread, please let me know and I will remove): Have this on a well known 'auction and buy it now' site - put it up because it got such a crazy price in last auction (from a different well known auction site) that I had to list it. Missing back cover, front cover detached, missing a chunk from last story page.

I bought a lot of books from her as she upgraded around that time but was not able to get any lower grade issues of those particular issues. Market price now is beyond my ability to add to my collection and I focus on buying Canadian comics. I wish I did but I'm just holding what I have now to sell when it feels right and will probably get them graded first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had another copy that was higher graded, but liked the colors on this one better. Whether she kept them both, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
