Crack Confessional...

[Cat-Man_America]

[font:Times New Roman]OK, I'll admit it. I've been a heathen slab worshipper lo these many years. But this is a new day, and I've seen the light, my friends. I'm cracking non-stop!

 

I'm not sure when the revelation first hit me. Maybe it was Pons dedication to rawness or the chance of one day sniffing virgin pages at a Rare High Grade party. Ah, those were the dreams of madness which drove me to the place I am today.

 

Seeing all those glorious books imprisoned behind walls of plastic finally got the best of me. Then it happened. Like a bolt of lightening it hit me! While gazing at an awesome copy of Marvel Mystery #13 an overwhelming urge came over me! A little voice in my head said crack, ...crack ...crack!

 

And here is the story as it unfolded for those with the courage to watch. Now my burden is lifted, my raw inner-collector exposed, and this is only the first...[/font]

You have Steve Carey syndrome...where is his "confessions of a CGC crack addict" thread?

Cat - did you hit that there raised thumb with that there hammer? Ouch.

 

For your next trick I'd like you to put the book back in the case!

Sometimes the smell of goldenage paper is greater than the protection of plasic just don;t sneeze on it.Enjoy your baby!

[shrunkenhead]

A braver man than I.

[Timely]

Make sure you sell me those Military's before you crack em!

[vaillant]

Huh, David, I am confused: didn’t you submitted a lot of GA books yourself recently?

 

I mean, it’s great to buy CGC graded for the warranty but if you were submitting them yourself I thought many of yours previously were raw?

 

Anyway, felicitations upon your liberation from "pagan" worship… I’m very glad about this. CGC grading is great, but should not be worshipped.

And of course, once again a (thumbs u for Bill…

I'm too chicken mess to crack my 6.0

 

well done sir!

[originalisbest]

It takes brass balls to crack books of that caliber! But heck, as long as you can trust yourself not to dent it or pop a staple!

[BOOT]

I'm cracking non-stop!

Hmm....

 

Could this have anything to do with the date on which it was posted?

[font:Times New Roman]The raw MM#13 is actually a restored under-copy! Alas, my 9.2 copy hasn't shipped yet. [/font]

 

 

[font:Times New Roman]Thanks to everyone who played along in spite of suspicions.[/font]

 

 

[Vision75]

Well done...both in terms of getting the book (my fav) and the gag!

[vaillant]

It was too good to be true…
