I like pie Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I know. I was just pointing out, the numbered copies were selling for 100 as well and have dropped to 70ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rice71-migration Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I was lucky to get one from John91c, got 6/200. Thanks again John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John91C Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) not a problem...I was able to pick up 5 unnumbered and unsigned. I should have picked up more but was running low on cash! I picked up 7 that were numbered at the start of the show, #'s 1-7...didn't know until Sunday that I could buy them unnumbered!

accessndx Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Will the numbered but unsigned ones get Blue labels from the CGC or is it gonna be green label city? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rice71-migration Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Would it still be green if you get cgc witness signing if it is numbered on back before the signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nexus Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Can't believe they are selling for that much. Thought about slabbing a few for SS, and in the end just didn't make it back to the table again. Oh well, can't win them all. At least I picked up a nice page from the first issue. I think it's the first page with the five ghosts on it, and also the back cover of issue 1...? Can't be sure, since I don't have the book handy for reference. That's a very cool page! GLWTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krighton Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) could the creator of this thread change five ghosts to Five Ghosts....makes it more noticeable. TODAY IS FIVE GHOSTS LAUNCH DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Edited March 20, 2013 by krighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Welcome to your worst nightmare. Some of the production and distribution/handling on these new books can be pretty rough. (And the bindery tears, oy vey!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colicab Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I saw three copies and it looks like someone set a brick on the middle between the stables... Not CB but ughhh.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krighton Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) I noticed all the copies so far that I've looked at have a heavy front crease about 1/3 of the way down near the spine. Edited March 20, 2013 by krighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarrysComics Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I noticed all the copies so far that I've looked at have a heavy front crease about 1/3 of the way down near the spine. EVERY Phantom I have seen has it. It's not color breaking, but seems consistent through the run. Pressing some tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
