What was your first CGC slab?

92 posts in this topic

I have absolutely no idea.

 

I caught the OA bug & discovered ebay around the same time in late '99, and started buying slabbed books on the side a bit later.

I can remember my first piece of art but not my first CGC book.

Harbinger 1, 9.6

 

Treated with care by the postal services so that it was received in perfect condition with a slab crack and detached cover.

My dad took me out on my 18th birthday and bought me my first slab (the slabbing age was 18 back then). That first shot of Jack started me on the long long path of my lifelong addiction.

 

:devil:

I only own two slabbed books and I only bought them because the price was right and I needed them to complete my runs of the two titles.

 

PURCHASED PREVIOUS TO 2009

Batman #227. Brought it at a show back in 2000, probably paid $25-$35 for it. Sent it off shortly to this new company I heard of called CGC. It came back 9.0. Sold it about a year after that on ebay for not much more than I paid + grading cost. I see a 9.0 on ebay now for $1K.

 

Ohhhhh to go back in time.
