Dark Knight Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Yep, Definitely love the book and its grade. I'm definitely satisfied. What surfaces in my head are the "what ifs." Like what if later down the line I can get a better deal for the same condition and all that. I always think about those things as a collector. But, there was no way at all for me to say no with this transaction. It's a key book that I've always wanted and I finally got it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both live in LA, and Oliver was stealing GA books at the San Diego comic con where this Detective 29 went missing from Brent's booth. He (Oliver) also mentioned to that he had a Detective 29 for sale when we were discussing a transaction before we found out he was a thief. Did the guy from ebay say where he got it? It's also possible that he was a cohort of Oliver's in the theft ring. If you don't mind, please PM me the guy's name, address, etc. I'm going to want to talk to him and maybe take his deposition in my case against Oliver.
