2021 Holiday FS thread: High grade GA/SA/BA (CLOSED) 4 4

[pickycollector]

It's that time of the year again. Many high grade books from GA/SA/BA, some books with discounts, some not. Many new acquisitions, under-copies, books from my collection that I decided to sell and left overs from past FS threads. The quality of books offered in this thread could be among the best I had in the last 12 years. The X letter may be particularly interesting for some of you.

Listings begin modestly tonight and will continue in the coming weeks. Schedule will be as follow although dates are not determined yet.

Days 1,3,4,5: Comic books (from A to Z)

Day 2: Magazines and Treasuries (from Z to A)

Here are terms:

People on the probation list, or that I may have on ignore, are not eligible to purchase. 

Raw books: All my raw books are unrestored and not pressed unless noted. All my raw books are accurately graded and your satisfaction is guaranteed or your money back (except shipping costs) as long as book is returned in same condition as sent within 7 days of receipt.

CGC books: Sales are final.

The first in this thread or via PM wins the book based on time stamp.

Time payments are possible but must be discussed before you make the purchase.

All prices are in USD.

Shipping cost depends of how many books you take, where you live and how you want this to be shipped:

1) 1-3 CGC books with $100 insurance and tracking number to the USA with strong packaging is estimated around $30.00.

2) 1-5 raw books (regular size) with $100 insurance and tracking number to the USA with strong packaging is estimated around $25.00.

I do accept PayPal, personal checks (may need to clear if I don't know you though) or international money orders. Paypal is fine for orders up to $1,000. For orders above that amount, checks or international money orders only.

All-Star Western #11 NM- : $300

2nd app. and 1st cover app. Jonah Hex

I wanted to keep this one and join it along with an unpressed #10 in the same condition but couldn't find one so I am giving up and selling my #11.

Amazing Adventures #18 VF/VF+ : $55 SOLD

Origin and 1st appearance Killraven. Neal Adams art

Book looks much better but impact creases on upper right corner and lower left corners that do not break colors and that could be easily been pressed out if you are into that..

No annoucement for a Killraven movie or Netflix series...yet but if that happens, it would be a great show!

#2: 9.2

#3: 9.2

#5: 9.2 (Neal Adams art)

#6: 9.4 (Neal Adams art)

Amazing Spider-Man Annual #7 VF/NM: $90 SOLD

Edited December 4, 2021 by pickycollector

Amazing Spider-Man Annual #5 VF- : $80 SOLD

Structurally much better but has small ding/tear that goes through the whole book at middle bottom edge, probably was at bottom or top of the pile when distributed in stores.

[pickycollector]

Amazing Spider-Man #160 VF+ to VF/NM: $20

Light impact ding on lower left corner that does not break colors is the main defect.

[pickycollector]

Amazing Spider-Man #132 VF+ : $45 NOW $40

Looks better but small tear on back cover

Amazing Spider-Man #107 VF+ to VF/NM: $80 NOW $70

Amazing Spider-Man #94 CGC NM 9.4: $410 NOW $375

From the Westport collection. I don't know if this book was pressed or not.

Last GPA sale for a CGC 9.2 was $400 in October. I am selling this 9.4 for about the same price.

Amazing Spider-Man #94 NM- : $250 NOW $200

Not much difference between this raw copy and the graded copy above (except the price of course).

Amazing Spider-Man #88 VF/NM: $100

[pickycollector]

Amazing Spider-Man #17 former CGC 9.0: $3,075 (I kept the label and it will be included)

I cracked this book in order to add to my collection but then realized with horror that the book has probably been cleaned and pressed. I "upgraded" recently to a CGC 9.2 (but did not dare to crack it yet) but honestly, this 9.0 copy looks better and I would keep it for me if not for the cleaning/pressing fact. If, like me, you don't like pressing, this book is not for you. If you don't mind, then it is a gorgeous book for its technical grade.

A CGC 9.2 sold for $4,075 in Comiclink's last September auction and the last GPA sale for a 9.0 was $2,850 in October

[pickycollector]

Spidey Super Stories #1 VF/NM: $100 SOLD

Ok, not an A letter but too much related to ASM to wait until letter S

Book looks better but light minor wear here and there that do not break colors and that could be easily been pressed out if you are into that.
