I do most of my shopping online primarily eBay. My best score quantity wise was a lot of Marvel Now #1’s. 36 books total at $1/each. Actually posted it earlier in this thread.

If anyone's interested, one simple rule for Marvel newsstands is that the "THOR THE DARK WORLD" logo is on the bottom of the final Marvel newsstands ever printed.

No it’s actually like saying more money in the banks is a good sign poverty rates are down. 

My point is that there is a concentration of newsstand interest in this thread. Whatever else you can say about banks, true or not, is not relevant.

That's crazy. Can you tell if it was a newsstand under the sticker, it's hard to tell in the pic you posted? The Spider-Man 75 I posted with the sticker a couple days ago was definitely a newsstand underneath. I just ask because I was under the impression CGC would blue label stickered issues if it was done at the manufacturer level but not if, say, the drug store did it. This kinda looks like the drug store did it.

It was your analogy, prince.

Yes, and correct. Anyway, it hardly matters. The point is pretty obvious. The presence of nothing but photos of newsstands in this thread is not an indicator of ubiquity but of concentration. You may as well say that the large number of diamond merchants on 47th street in New York City proves that diamonds can be found on any street in NYC.

Totally blank. I do believe the sticker was placed at time of printing, hence the blue label.

Here’s a few just back from CGC.

Is that crackle on the bottom left the slab or junk inside the slab?

[ThothAmon]

AAARGH. Return trip to Sarasota I guess.

QC issues are so sad. Hopefully CGC employees understand that with great power comes great responsibility.

Found this one in a dollar box.

[bshowell]

Just got this.

[paqart]

Just picked up a few newsstands today, average price $2.60 each. The Cliff Chiang WW covers are my favorites in this group, though the comics aren't worth a lot.
