maloney414 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Finally got this one recently. Scratch by upper staple is on the case. Very cool! I'm glad you were able to find the one you were looking for! (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Smooth Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Thanks,all. Took me a little while, but I found one. The only bad thing is that there's a small stain on the back that would probably bring it down to a VF+. Otherwise, solid NM. This issue belongs in the hardest books of the 80's thread. I can't imagine they made many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Master Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I was a little worried this year; I haven't had a lot of time to focus on my Joe collection other than sending about 25 more out to be signed (which I haven't got back yet!) but it looks like I retained my spot again! However I would like to recognize jrs069 in the #2 slot - he has managed to complete his set AND somehow find himself a copy of GI Joe #53 2nd print in 9.8!!! He's the man!!! (I hope he get's tired of those and sells me the few he has I need!!!!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Smooth Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Finally got this one recently. Scratch by upper staple is on the case. nice!! well done... now what about #5 and #6?? No 5 yet in high grade, but 6 is even tougher, and I managed to get these. One most likely a 9.4, and the other 8.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Smooth Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 #21 9.9.. At $1350 with a day to go. I say it goes over 3000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pubmonkey Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 http://www.ebay.com/itm/GI-Joe-lot-of-613-1-155-x2-UPC-DE-Complete-Run-Set-NM-Variants-2nd-3rd-Prints-/120949752385?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item1c292ac241 This is quite the set and even includes the "so much fun" 3rd print of #63 although it looks in VG condition... I am very tempted but I am sure the shipping to Canada would be $$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Smooth Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Wow. Instant collection. His reserve hasn't been met, though. Wonder how much? And he doesn't have blackthorne #6! Edited July 20, 2012 by Dungeon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobo1969 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 #21 9.9.. At $1350 with a day to go. I say it goes over 3000. Sold for $2185 which is not a bad price compared to what the first 9.8s were selling for just 1-2 years ago. I should have put a serious bid in as GI JOE #21 is a grail book for me.

B-Smooth Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 I was way off. It's going to be tough to get another 9.9 of that book. Depending on who you ask, it's a decent price. It really is the nicest copy I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Smooth Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Cross post, but I'm not caring about that. This is something I'll probably never see again. In its original packaging! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
