The seller has a good rep. Its Brian Peets from A-1 comics. He's an honest guy, I'd vouch for him

$5k?! Sounds excessive!

I'd hate to be a completist Timely collector that has to spend over $5000 on reprints!

i consider that book a grail for a timely completist.

Agreed. I don't know how you could want a copy of this if you were trying to put together a Marvel Mystery run. Isn't there only suppose to something like less than 10 copies of this around?

Wow, that's a very cool book.

 

A-1 are reliable and trustworthy, so no worries there.

Many collectors do not collect reprints or consider them neccesary to have a complete set.

Who is this Doc V guy with all the Timley's?

Doc V. is Doc Michael Vassalo. He has written many articles and sent a lot of information to Alter Ego and is a Atlas completist across all genre. You can find his Art's gallery here and some of his articles (and some of Jon Berk's) at Ken Quattro's site here. He is also a pillar of the Timely / Atlas mailing list (among others). Great source of information.
