Azkaban Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Some buys today from the LCS. Usually they don't have this many keys, but caught them at the right time with a new collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kaptain Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Some buys today from the LCS. Usually they don't have this many keys, but caught them at the right time with a new collection. I can't imagine buying these at an LCS! Did you get a good deal? I usually expect an LCS to charge 9.8 prices for mid-grade books... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

october Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Some buys today from the LCS. Usually they don't have this many keys, but caught them at the right time with a new collection. I can't imagine buying these at an LCS! Did you get a good deal? I usually expect an LCS to charge 9.8 prices for mid-grade books... They were all priced nicely. None were super crazy deals, but the ASM 194 in VF for $12 was pretty cheap. Happiest to get the ASM 101 in VF. That one seems to have gone a little nuts lately.

Hado Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 This arrived yesterday from Ajulliay Shiney He sent it to me for no other reason than he thought I would really enjoy it. An amazing gesture. You rule Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ant-Man Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 That Marvel calendar is sweet. Quite an eclectic week for me. I believe the Love & Death is a 1st print softcover (I've read there is a 2nd?). Could have sworn it used to be listed in Overstreet, but I looked through the first 14 before giving up. SOTI was first listed in #9 & POP in #10. The listings in #10 say to "See 'Love and Death'", but I couldn't find it. Must be getting old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkham Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 These arrived last week from WallCrawler. As per usual, in perfect condition and packed like nothing you've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldCap Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 My haul from Boston Comic Con. Recently went through my vol. 1 Cap run and discovered that I was missing #'s 155, 168 and 176! So picked those up along with a beautiful copy of Sgt. Fury 13. The Marvel Masterworks were buy 2 get 5 free so I couldn't pass that up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 ....oooooh how I would love to find a deal like that on Masterworks.... Atlas has really been heating up lately but on a positive note...that seems to be flushing copies out of the woodwork. I think a large part of the volatility of Atlas is due to the fact that while there have been increases, a typical Atlas with a cool cover is still only a couple hundred or less in a real sharp mid grade state. Folks can still sock 'em away without too much remorse.... it makes for a real friendly collector's environment. They're not everywhere, so the thrill of the hunt is still there..... and they're kind of neat. Many of the artists have that zany irreverent style that foreshadows the Underground Comix movement of a decade or so later. Maneely is still very under rated in the larger collecting community..... here's a cool splash from a tough book that was well below a hundred bucks.Right now, the Atlas canon reminds me a whole lot of the Marvel Pre Hero market of the last 5 or 6 years. GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
