I can confirm I sold that copy that year...I am not the seller now, the buyer of the book is (the seller is the person I sold the copy too) (thumbs u

 

Why did you sell it to someone who didn't treasure it enough to keep it more than a year?

 

:eek:

you would have to ask the buyer...when he bought it (at a great price I must ad), he more than indicated that this was his "grail"... however, to be honest, once I sell a comic that I bought specifically for resale, it is really none of my business what the owner does with it... I think I have sold over 20 copies of SC22 in the past 3 years and I would bet that outside of the 9.0 and maybe one or 2 others, all have been flipped at some point

They appear to be coming out of the closets now.

This one a 6.5 on ebay

I sold that copy last year (thumbs u

 

How many years was it in your closet?

 

???

By the number of copies you've owned of this particular book Rick, It must be a BIG closet ;)

I just added up...26 copies purchased, and 25 sold, with one more pending... so, 26 for 26... one of these days I might even keep a copy for myself, but since I rarely collect SA, probably not lol

In the mean time, it's priced to be kept as "his grail". I have to say, you've sold more SC22 than anyone in the last three years. The 7.5 ow/w you've sold...so far is the highest PQ copy for any SC22 in 7.5+. Besides the stamp marking on the 6.5, it's the best 6.5 so far.

the raw 9.0 I sold also had ow/w paper for sure (though, not sure if it was actually cgc graded or not, I got conflicting reports post sale)

The ow/w is a welcome PQ. Besides the current new 9.0 ow, it may just be still lurking around.

WTF? Are we supposed to interrogate buyers of comic books what their intentions are before we can sell to them? :screwy:

Yes. I am allowed to buy to flip, but if you buy my books it is illegal, unethical, and immoral to resell them........ :devil:

You bet. Green Lantern Showcases should only be sold to those who will love and cherish them.

Nice books being snagged by board members :golfclap: .

 

I have a follow-up on the 5.0 CR I purchased off ebay, albeit for the record price I believe.

I resubmitted it to see if it would get a grade or PQ bump, and it managed to get the later.

A little dissapointed it didn't get the .5 grade boost I expected, but as we all know, that's the game.

I'm still happy with the CR/OW bump.

 

I know a few folks saw the book in the old style slab,

here's the book in a fresh new slab.
