phoenix215 Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Sorry, it always makes me laugh when people collect slabs of books that I remember buying from my LCS when they first were published. What is truly sad and scary is that the later issues (350-425), the modern drek as some call it, are nearly impossible to find slabbed 9.8. I took a look at my raw copies, the ones i bought from my LCS, and not many of them would score a 9.6. most would rade between 9.2-9.4. They aren't nearly impossible, it just that nobody thinks they are worth slabbing. Even if they would grade out as 9.9 copies, collectors just wouldn't slab them. Probably but I wish they would cause I would certainly like to add them to my collection being the completionist that I am. I also know a few others that would also like to add them to their sets. I have to agree with Casey about that...but mine is because customs agents have no respect for the printed word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciorac Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 The big purchase finally is in my grubby mits!! You have no idea how green eyed I feel. Congratulations on getting the monkey off your back, but as a collector you know that another target(s) will be acquired. Maybe replacing the pre-Robin Tecs liquidated to enable this purchase? Thanks Duffman! Yep, they are back on the list! But, the finances will have to recover for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
