Hey everybody.

 

I'm new to the boards and thought I'd introduce myself before posting replies to your threads.

I'm Gav from Wolverhampton, England. I've recently started collecting comics again after a 10 year hiatus when an ex-girlfriend of mine threw all of my comics in the bin. Yep, all of them! I was gutted and gave up completely as I could never afford to replace what I had.

My collection consisted mainly of Bat titles (Batman, Tec, SOTB, LOTDK and God knows how many one-shots, mini's and maxi's) and related titles such as Nightwing, Hitman and Azrael. I also had a complete Spawn run, Preacher, Goddess and so on.

 

So when I landed a well paid job a few months ago, and with my urge to buy comics rekindled by The Dark Knight movie, I jumped onto Ebay and started buying again with gusto. I went mainly for cheap bulk lots at first, but then the bug really kicked in and I bought one of my most desired comics - Batman #608 RRP CGC 9.4 for $720. It went on from there with a couple of Sig Series, and i've just submitted my first bunch of comics to CGC for grading.

 

If anyone is interested as to how my collection looks after 4 months of frantic buying I'll post a link gladly.

Anyway, nice to meet you all, catch you round soon!

 

Gav.

How's it going mate! I didn't expect to bump to someone I knew so quickly!

 

I mailed you about the other Bat's and Tec's earlier mate, I'll take the lot. Oh yeah people, Nick provides a top quality sales service. I bought a beautiful Batman #171 from him recently which will be on it's way to CGC real soon, along with a solid grade Batman #95, also from Nick :grin:
