Raw FF #5 - Should I??

[Thermal]

Have an opportunity to pick up a Raw Fantastic Four #5 and a Raw Fantastic Four #9 at $1000 for the two. The #5 is a 6.0 and the #9 is a 4.0 Thoughts? Let me have them.

Sound like your buying #5 and someone is throwing in the #9 to sweeten the deal?

Good price. I would if I had the money

[Hammerhead]

Sounds like a good deal! Go for it!

You are right, they are. Here is my additional thought though. Do I buy this, hope it comes bad as a 6.0 or better with no issues or pay an extra $300+ for one that is already graded??

roll the dice, even if it comes back less than 6.0 it'll only accrue value

Bingo! Thats what I would do,unless of course if you have already seen it in hand and it looks Bueno.

Do you have any pic's to share?

if you just want the #5 and dont want the #9, you will obviously sell off the #9 and it should sell for around $175 CGC 4.0, leaving you owning the 6.0 #5 for $825. I wouldn't call it a no brainer deal because both books are not yet graded. I suggest spending your money on what you actually want.

Hopefully the 6.0 is a lowball estimate, and not wishful thinking. If so, and it is un-doctored, you should be good to go. Baring a catastrophe from CGC giving you a terrible grade though.

only concern would be grading accuracy and restoration, otherwise it's a no brainer

Thank you all. Great points and a reality check. Will let you know what I decide.
