Bronty Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Nice pickups. Kirby's art for the Colossus story is spectacular. (thumbs u thanks. I think a colossus reprint (#20 not #14) was literally the first pre hero story I ever read so I have fond memories for the character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I had an eye on the TTA 30, but was so p'ssed off after seeing the price manipulation on the ST 97 that i didn't bid... seems like someone retracted their bid and then reinstated it. I thought Clink was becomming a serious auction house but looks more like ebay where people can put in bids to feel out how high they need to go to get the high bid... then remove then, then snipe.... Thats just wrong. Makes someone think twice before putting in a $7500 bid or any bid for that matter. that sucks man, I understand how you must feel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtlasFan Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 (edited) Anyone else watching the ST #97 9.0 on clink? Wow! Hmm. Those kind of prices do make one stop and think...One book could pay for a year's worth of college tuition...

mysterio Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 (edited) I almost bid on this book since it is only at $100, but then I saw the PQ. Such a shame, but if anyone here wants a super cool book and doesn't mind the PQ then have at it! EDIT: It went for $145, still not a bad price. Anyone here pick it up?

Bomber-Bob Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 To my fellow PreHero Marvel Collectors. I am trying to get CGC to adjust the Registry points for PreHero Marvels. If you agree with me that PreHero Marvel Registry point values are woefully low please post in my Thread. Thanks. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Board=40&Number=5786842&Searchpage=1&Main=262355&Words=&topic=0&Search=true#Post5786842 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICK STARR Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Real nice pick up, guys. Extra kudos, Bronty for the TOS 14 and TTA 30. I was also eyeing that TTA. I think you got it at a bargain. The CGC census indicates that there is a 9.8 copy out there I picked this up from the previous Clink auction Picked this one up from Joe V. at the Philly Wizard Con Picked up the next two, courtesy of Greg Reece The TTA 13 is one of my favorites and would be in my top 20 PH's. The TOS 5, whew, cost me my first born, my left nut, a few books and some cash. Seriously though, a major pick up for my collection of a tough issue. Like the top 20 idea, will try to piece mine together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if we are going to count books that early, it has to be Marvel Tales 93. http://www.google.ca/imgres?um=1&hl=en&sa=N&biw=972&bih=632&tbm=isch&tbnid=aPTXz_NUdcI4rM:&imgrefurl=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MarvelTales93.jpg&docid=SXVJjiEadBVU9M&imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/42/MarvelTales93.jpg&w=400&h=554&ei=RpzkT62-H-n36gGx3oXICg&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=511&sig=116841302115339098520&page=1&tbnh=138&tbnw=100&start=0&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:4,s:0,i:81&tx=40&ty=71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
