Popular Post MattTheDuck Posted August 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2021 In case you ever ask yourself, "Do my posts have any value to anyone?", let me tell you a story. I visited a yard sale yesterday which advertised comics as part of the sale on Craigslist. Because it was in a town about 30 miles away, I had emailed to make sure they had something I was interested in, and it wouldn't be a complete waste of time. I was told in reply it was a collection of over 1000 comics from the late 80s to the early 2000s, mostly Marvel, so that's positive. Now, I know next to nothing about that period, having collected only briefly in the early 1990s. So while I'm waiting on the street before the sale starts, I'm browsing this forum and this thread to make sure I know a) what's cool, and b) what might be valuable should it show up in this guy's collection. Because I read your posts, here's the result. Without them, it's a 50/50 for me to pick these up.

But was a good read regardless and happy to add to the collection. Man winning registry awards is hard 😂 I have overall a high score, but not all in one set and congrats to all those who are dedicated and win! nepatkm and Parabellum 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice pickup @Parabellum, this comic, ( Punisher War Zone #7) is definitely picking up some momentum. I was able to win these 2 War Zone issues, when they arrive safely, I will be able to cross them off my CGC graded 9.8 list.

Great book again, You do have a great collection @ADAMANTIUM, all that matters is getting what you want, and like/love to make yourself happy. 😃👍 To win a registry major award would be great.. There are a lot of Amazing collections on these boards, to win one would be an honor/(honour). Yes congratulations are definitely in order to the winners. 👍 Edited August 8, 2021 by nepatkm ADAMANTIUM and Parabellum 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed out on 2 issues that I needed from that sellers auction, which sold with a best offer. Disturbed at myself for not taking action for the BIN Option, or placing first bid on those items….

How much did they set you back? $1.83 in total . Seems fair. I may go back out there, if he hasn't sold through. The main thing I don't like about yard/garage/estate sales is that I feel really rushed to get through what's on offer and make sure I pick out anything I need for my collection, or which I've learned might be worth reading or worth some $ before someone else shows up and crowds things. As I noted in the "Garage sale finds" thread, I ended up with X-Factor 1-20, but there's no 6 (first Apocalypse) and I'm concerned I was in a hurry and just missed it. Plus which - as noted - I don't know anything about most of the post-1992 books so there's a certain level of blundering about. nepatkm and Parabellum 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
