Hawkman23 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Rich, you are (as you know) in an ultra elite Showcase 4 club at 7.5, and a steal of a price. Now is the time to buy Showcase 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase22gr1959 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Thanks all! I almost lost it because my phone was out of battery while I was on the road. Luckily, I went to a bagel store and the nice owner let me charge it for a few minutes and then I put a bid in the last ten minutes. I never looked at the auction till I came home. I guess it was meant to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it was meant to be. Did you buy a dozen bagels from him? Actually I bought two single and he helped me move his line up tables (closing up) so I can charge my phone in the wall outlet. I'll come back there again and buy a baker's dozen and put some tip in the jar. Edited December 3, 2011 by showcase22gr1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson-1970 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Congrats on the 7.5 SC#4. Beautiful book! .....and hurray for bagel shops!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Posted December 4, 2011 Author Share Posted December 4, 2011 Tell me were they cinnamon- raisin or everything? I want whatever you were havin' Seriously dude I am jealous. I too made the critical error of not making a go for that 7.5 on eBay last year, but like someone said, you never know how high the other bidder will go. Then there was the savannah copy, which was right in my sweet spot both in grad and price. I don't know what the one went you got sold for - missed the party- but I wouldn't have been a playa right now anyway. The boat for showcase 4 seems to be rapidly sailing. I may have, like with SC #22, come back to the party late. Glad I at least got one before the proverbial lock But I could be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the buyer decided to consign it to Comic Connect. The Savannah was a nice book for the grade and the price was reasonable and would been a good copy for you. I think a boardie owns that copy. At least you are cover it all fronts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
