I will not suck it. I stand by my assessment. :sumo:

Got my grader's notes for my 8.0 HOM 229. It appears that three people including me missed the tear on the BC :tonofbricks:

 

It got sent to me in PDF format right away though.

 

I will kick you in Chicago and take $5 from you to reimburse me for my cost.

 

xoxo

You and your grading "dream team" - :roflmao::roflmao::roflmao:

I blame Caira first because he sold me the book. Then me for thinking it was a printer's crease. Last Joey because he couldn't press away the tear.

 

Woo hoo :whee:

 

 

Damn Greggy still buying books with the nut sac crease?

My copy could have used more "Iron", but did ultimately prove to be "Invincible", Hey, for $4, who's complaining? I hereby welcome myself to this club...

I bet you paid like 20 bucks or somthing uh? hm:gossip:

 

God I wish every day I had been chasing the right things back in the late 80's. If even 20% of my allowance had been spent on quality instead of manufactured collectability. (shrug)

Not quite that cheap. IIRC, it was sold as MINT to me for like double guide so I want to say I paid like $80-100 for it back then. I remember it was WELL over guide and wondering if it would ever be worth what I paid! lol

Already have or had (sold alot of them as sets years ago) most of them...bought most of them for cover price. Reading those back in the day...I thought that would be the new marvel universe. :tonofbricks::tonofbricks::tonofbricks: Finding a Harbinger #1 for cover price when it was on the cover of CVM (Comic values monthly) and it was starting to heat up. :cloud9::cloud9::cloud9: LOVED THAT STUFF! :headbang:

Nice!

 

I wasnt lucky enough to get in at cover price with the Valiants. Lucky for me though, i didnt buy at the absolute peak but still paid some decent prices to get the early ones. I think i ended up buying Harbinger 1 for like $70 and solar 10 for like $50. Pretty pricey still but not as bad as some people paid! :eek:

At that time I worked part time at a comic store along with my full time job and I was the comic buying guy for them. They had 13 or so stores, I bought 2 ASM #1's from them. Ahhh the days! I also bought the Valiants for cover minus my discount for working at the store. Seems like I just handed them my pay check every other week.

I'm debating getting my copy slabbed purely for ensuring the condition remains consistent. Only around a 3.0-4.0 and it's the UK pence variant so still on the fence about it.

 

I wouldn't, save your money and put the book in a mylar
