Yes, they generally have a nice write up for all of their key books and also with most of their harder to find classic cover books. On the other hand, I find the listing descriptions for the other 90%+ of their lots to be rather "wanting", with only the title and issue number, condition, and picture. Definitely a case of the book having to sell itself, although this method probably makes the books very easy to be missed by potential bidders as they are scrolling through the countless pages of scans.

When you are shelling out something like 200k plus for a book I'm going to guess that the extra hyperbole is probably not going to change the outcome. I was serious though when I said I was genuinely assumed by that listing. It could have made Stan Lee blush. More please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between the selling of books to pay for acquisitions and the selling of under copies for people's upgrades , seems like Cc will have some good content for a few auctions....
