Just been to Whatever Comics in Canterbury, 1st time in a year and just wonder how this shop survives, the back issue selection is so poor at Silver's and the rest is way overpriced, but then it seems that way with all shops in Kent. Thank god for Nick nowadays

 

Did you manage to pick anything up though, we want details :baiting:

 

Seriously though this sort of experience is rife all over the UK not just Kent.

 

thought i would pop into see a few friends in Ramsgate on way home, walked past this very tatty bookshop, i noticed they had a few comics that were not worth buying in the window, so i popped in and asked if he had anymore inside, he pointed over to this little bundle, 18 comics and he wanted £3 each, i did a deal for £50 for the lot, this is what was there.

Bought a Wonder Woman book to mark my sisters DOB and I thought I would add it to the registry for the points.

 

Problem is CGC says the book doesn't exist.... WTF!?

 

Should I post this as a topic in the Registry forum or PM Gemma direct?

How long did you wait for the package as it doesn't sound like it was that long? I've waited quite a bit over a month in the past. Assuming that the tracking details he finally got you are correct you could find the book arrives fairly soon.

I can get a Walking Dead #19 for £130 is it worth it? I'm only just starting my collection and wanted to know if this was a decent price?

 

Personally no, but that what they seem to be going for at the moment. What sort of condition is it?

Buying it blind from a friend but he said it's in good condition. How would I go about getting cheaper one or should I just bite the bullet?

My advice would be to be patient. If you wait a while, one is sure to turn up at a better price and buying blind is always a helluva risk.

I've just picked up the previous game, Oblivion 5th Anniversary Edition, for 15 quid.  Like I've said before, that far behind in my gaming.

Great deal there.  

 

The Tales to Astonish 29 has what's easily my favourite Marvel SF / monster comic cover.  One day I will have a copy.
