Where did you Find that price at....

 

Ebay...if you get there within 10 seconds from me posting this I think you can snag a copy.

 

 

have you read it?

 

Only #1, but the rest are definitely on my to-do list.

Pristine as in unread and untouched gentlemen.

 

That clarification does not change my lol

 

+1

 

What does "unread and untouched" have to do with pristine? It's certainly possible that some books got damaged in packing/transit from Diamond. It's also certainly possible that a copy has been opened, handled, read, etc. and still garner a 9.8 or higher from CGC.

 

Conservatively, I'd say at least 1/2 of the print run are 9.8 candidates and higher, although for Todd #1, I'm not sure how prevalent the spotting on the left side of the front cover are, and whether CGC would consider that a printing defect or downgrade the book.

 

Get a loupe and look at the bottom left corner. All mine look like a head of cabbage. Even my slabbed 9.8

 

I mean this:

Notice the spotting on the man's suit? I this this particular defect was pretty common with the run.

 

Yeah its prevelent on issue 1 I have I think 2 or 3 like that except to a smaller degree.

 

If it's a prevalent and known time of printing error/smudge....does cgc knock it down when grading on something like this?

 

That issue 5 TODD compared to Walking Dead 49 is an interesting analysis.

Just bought four #1 1st prints for 120 shipped. It seems like a lot but I feel like in the long run it won't be a bad buy.

 

That'll look like a bargain in 6 months

 

Funny, I was repeating just that phrase over and over in my head as I slowly inched my way towards the "Buy it Now" button.
