What's going on with the bottom left hand corner?

"A CGC'd version sold for $12,000"...

 

 

CGC > PGX

 

CGC ∞ > PGX

 

 

I sent the seller an offer... I bet you would never guess for how much.....

 

 

Three fitty?

 

 

Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

The buyer is not the only bidder who bid high on the book. I don't know what the bid increment is but didn't two bidders bid $12,000? The winner and the runner up?

Apparently there were 4 bidders taking that book into the stratosphere.

CGC > PGX

CGC ∞ > PGX

 

While I agree with this - I think the gap in narrowing. The lone PGX book I sold on eBay went for quite a bit more than I expected and probably higher than a CGC book in 9.8.

 

For those curious it was a recent modern graded 9.9.

 

Wow... may I ask what GPA would be for the CGC copy, and what you sold the PGX for?

 

 

 

-slym (isn't asking for the book's title, so isn't asking for GPA like that)

 

35.00 GPA versus 90.00.

Exactly! I sell them, not collect them. Anything that touches my hands now is purely to flip and make a quick buck before the bubble bursts in everyones face.

Walking up to your wife and telling her that you'd bag Jennifer Biel (or actress if your choice) if you had the chance is honesty too. Doesn't make it expedient.

On the contrary, I think the subsequent knee to your nutsack would arrive most expediently after your little bout of "honesty".

Nah, it will only make her realize that she has to compete for your attention, and it'll make her want you more. But instead of "Jennifer Biel" (whoever that is), mention her sister.

 

P.S. I've never been married.

[VintageComics]

Jennifer Biel was a collaborative effort between Jessica Biel and Jennifer Love Hewitt. I've got video to prove it.

And I'm the one that bought some of his ultra high grade books
