joeypost Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Excellent!! Weren't you after this book a year or so ago? Just curious, either way fantastic book!! Adam had this for sale a few months back. I decided to go for broke since it was the PC copy and Ditko did the artwork. Now I need a nice copy of issue 5.

MCJ Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Thanks. I haven't received it yet from Heritage...I'd like to be able to compare it to the other 8.5 in my collection side by side. Patience is a virtue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCJ Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Yeah, I really didn't think I was going to win the TC copy. (My secret max was over 20% higher than the hammer price.) My theory is that I wasn't the only one having lag issues during the Heritage auction, and I benefited from having placed my bids prior to the lot hitting the live floor of the auction... Maybe I can trade up to a 9.0 or 9.2 if a copy hits the market, but the owners have been loathe to give them up. I can't blame them... 9.4 and 9.6 are realistically out of reach at this point. That's when I'd begin asking myself, "who needs a Roth IRA, anyway?" (Raises hand--I'm 41) Both copies sport white pages. It's going to be hard to choose the keeper. Now I have 2 copies of JIM 83 & 5 of 85. How'd that happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbud73 Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 How can this, the best of threads, languish for months? C'mon I know some of you bought TC and Savannah's so lets see 'em. The TC DD's were too pricey for me, but being born in Winterpeg, these will always have a place in my collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Fashion PB and J Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 If I ever do an Avengers run, I'll probably stick to 1-10 When I do another Avengers run it will be the first 100. And likely all VF/NM- or so, and raw. 1-10 is cool, but there are some fantastic covers in the first 100. And it really is an affordable run in below 9.4.
