How do you think this Boardmember will do with Avengers 1-100 all high grade?

[ericc123]

Ardvarps is a board member right? What do you think about this auction. First off I'm not conviced that alot of the earlier issues are vf/nm but he did say vf or better so no foul there. He mentions that guide is close to $10,000 but I can't see raw books selling for that close to guide. Wonder how reasonable his reserve is? The biggest plus though is he has many many scans which show off the condition of the books well. Thoughts? Final $$$?

Looks like "someone" is looking for a little "project" over the holidays.

I hope he has a lot of elves to help him out, it's gonna be a big job

 

[supapimp]

remember he has a make believe wife and daughter to help him out too.

Pretty nice run, though some may not go VF...all and all I wouldn't mind owning the set. I would think if he is estimating $10,000 book then his reserve would be in the neighborhood of $7,500...just a guess.

Odin88 is aardvark88 ....they are two differant animals...

 

[aardvark88]

Darn, all this extra publicity for me (aardvark88) but I'm not eBaying any goodies this week. Against my religion to ship after 03Dec01. I am NOT aardvark-pms.

[Timely]

That's gotta be one of the nicest #1's I've seen in a long time!

 

Timely

[ericc123]

Well if he's not a board member then I don't have to be afraid of offending anyone. Why the heck does he sell all of those supposed high grade books and never has them CGC'd? I wanted to bid on one of his auctions one time but I just can't tell from his digital camera pics sometimes. And yes Timely that #1 is really nice...possibly soon to be sold by a certain "someone" as an unrestored 9.8 with fire engine red colors, snow white pages and four razor sharp corners

I actually just went back and looked at the scan of #1 again. Looks nice but enough general wear that I'd say CGC would give it an 8.5...just a tad nicer than my 8.0 so thats about $2500 right there what about the rest guys?

 

Eric

[Aman619]

he #1 doesnt look that nice...lots of wear all around. A lot of the later issues look pretty sweet, but many of the books have serious spine issues. Its a tough call. It IS a real nice run, but not really a mint freaks dream. It looks like you'd still need to upgrade nearly ALL the books under 30.

 

anyway, no need to bid...seems like an 'old friend' is really hot for these books. look how many bids he's made. So many actually that I might be convinced he "knows" aardvark personally!!?? hmmmm

[uclapeterg]

I agree. No way are the books scanned even VF/NM. They'll be lucky to average out VF.

[supapimp]

AARDVARKPS THREAD good read!

[drbanner]

Hmmm...hammer sure did go out of his way to defend the seller, eh? Makes you wonder??
