Well, if the one that just sold on eBay was worth $750 ....

I'll keep secret the nice offer a fellow boardie offered me for my copy...  He's buttering me up to get at a different book.

There's probably only about 5-10 copies (at best) that rate better than 3.0.  You have one of them!

I was looking at the census to see which books to submit next, and I noticed that True Love Pictorial 5 has the wrong publication date.  What the what?

That is weird.  Causes that issue to be out of order in the list.

I've said it a million times, but here's a million + 1:  CGC ought to set up a way on the boards that obvious errors like this one could be reported so they can be corrected.  The CGC census is a valuable part of the hobby and needs to be accurate -- or, at any rate, needs to be corrected to eliminate the kinds of gross errors that they've allowed to accumulate over the years.

Yes - this is a great idea. The knowledge shared on these boards should be benefitting to our host.  They could even gamify it a bit... earning a badge of credibility from CGC would be cool. Similar to (but also very different from) Overstreet Advisors.

So I decided I'll submit my copy (funny, it has the "RC" initials stamped on the cover).  On the online submission form, it allowed me to enter the correct publication date.  Hopefully this won't create a second entry for TLP5.

Now to get these wrapped up and shipped to Florida!  Plus another package on its way to Canada!!!

Spectacular books, I see some raws that would be census killers. 

Thinking about moving one of my prime GA books for some Bakers, time to start thinking about getting another 50 Bakers this year (which I did manage in both 2016 and 2017). hm

Thanks, trying to get a grasp on what a fair price would be if one ever came available.  Hard to do without much in the way of public sales data...

Obviously one can infer based from prices of other Bakers it’s gonna cost dearly in any grade.  But I don’t wanna overpay too much if it’s not mad mad rare...

Fair price would be $10,000, but you can buy mine for only $7,000 right now...glad to help...:foryou:

Lot of toughies in there.  The Diary Secrets nn at the bottom is arguably the toughest of all Bakers.

Yeah, there is still a few more I need myself. Here is one I forgot about. Not really romance, but probably fits here too.
