The flipper held the book for only three months with prices of SC22 still being extremely volatile during that period of time.

Not at all. It just depends on what the defect is. For example, my last GL #7 I bought knowing it had a nasty non-color breaking bend/crease at the spine as a 7.0 - otherwise it was a gorgeous copy. After pressing I expected it come back as a 7.5/8.0, but Joe was able to get it all out so it came back as a 9.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceguy Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Glad you found some humour in it, was trying. Had to do something while waiting just 12 more days for the GL movie. Feel free to add your own ideas to the list, we don't have to stop at 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) 11) the copy with the chip 12) the faded copy 13) the ungraded copies (thumbs u On another note. As some have already noticed, Warner Brothers has been doing a lot of promotion and advertisement for the GL movie. Let's hope this pans out.

Spaceguy Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I like those 3! Good thinking! Investment wise, I'm sure all aboard will do well.
