I decided to remove that restored piece(it was well done but looked like a photocopied piece anyway) and go for a blue label since you won't see the damage in the case and they would grade off the outer cover. I'll let you know how that comes out. Apparently they didn't just mess with the interior cover. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trademarkcomics Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 OK. I give. I'm bailing a bit on the double cover biz, deciding to aim my focus on graded keys. I'm auctioning off a bunch of them(Most are Amazing Spideys...some 9.8s!) this week! ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have an incident on the Tomb of Dracula double with a MJ insert, though. The winning bidder circumvented being blocked by me by starting a new ID with an alias. I didn't catch it until I had shipped, but eBay caught it and banned him and cancelled the sale! I had to rush back to the post office and luckily they found it before it went out on the truck!

I have this one as well. Just got it back today. It was the only one I ever bought off the shelf. Went to Cliff's Comics in Deland, Florida and bought it when I was about 15. Shocked it held up given the number of times I have flipped through it in more than 30 years.

Popular Post Morganmi Posted November 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2023 Picked up this one over the holidays. Just light pinch at the spine or it would be in the high grade range.

Popular Post trademarkcomics Posted December 11, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2023 About a month ago, I was looking at the DD 131 I have and held it to a strong light and noticed many non color-breaking ripples along the spine, so I took it out, pressed it and sent it in: Before: After: Not a bad bump! At least it passed the only other recorded double cover(a 9.2) sold on GPA 15 years ago! icp004, littledoom, Morganmi and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
