tth2 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 There`s a huge difference between my wife tolerating my interest in comics (which she does), and sharing my interest in comics (which she most definitely does not). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Well, at least comics can be wise investment and better than blowing away money on a depreciating sport car. How about tolerating all that shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a vintage car, dumped tons of money into it, and when it came time to sell it, I was lucky to get what I originally paid for it before I did all the work. But it was fun to drive with the top down, and let's face it, comics aren't exactly a chick-magnet, whereas a red convertible can be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comics and chicks...great combination. Of course, it would be cool to have all of the above...but nothing will ever be enough to some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted January 6, 2011 Author Share Posted January 6, 2011 There`s a huge difference between my wife tolerating my interest in comics (which she does), and sharing my interest in comics (which she most definitely does not). Just like we tolerate their interests in shoes and clothing, instead of sharing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase22gr1959 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) Well, home sick today so time to burn.

kimik Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 How does that compare to other restored FN range copies price-wise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) How does that compare to other restored FN range copies price-wise? I don't know, but being trimmed will hurt the price quite a bit. I would think a 5.0-5.5 trimmed would sell for $600-700 Looks like the price bid up to a blue label 4.5 ish.
