Some of the highlights of books picked up today from a local guy, some pretty decent stuff at a really decent price.  These from a “collection” as shown in the last photo.  It’s a hoot to be the first to dig through these.  Check that MS Cap Marvel variant!

I hope you didn't leave The Beast of Koba Bay behind?

Certainly not!   
I’ve been working at buying this collection for over a year.  Someone beat me there though - the ASM 129 and 238 were already gone.   
The fellow these (mostly currently) belong too has mentioned to me that he didn’t buy them in a day, so he won’t sell them in a day.  Makes sense.  
He is a little slow with pricing things - usually I go through a section, pull the issues I really want, and leave them til next time to take home, giving him time to price them out.   It’s a strange and unsettling feeling.  
The Beast of Koba Bay is still at his house, hopefully coming home with me in a few weeks, with about 150 other choice books.

Wow‼️ You dropped some serious coin , your LCS must be happy👍‼️

Yeah, he was happy.  I'm lucky in that he calls me when new stuff comes in because he knows he'll get some of his money back quickly and he's very fair with the prices.  He's not like other stores in town who either look like a museum, or grade so loose that you never get your moneys worth..
