A little Carousel of Comics

Hi everyone, hoping you are all enjoying the weekend!  This will be a one book sales thread. I struggle to take good pics of slabs, but I am always happy to take additional pics and provide additional information as requested, just PM or post in the thread any questions and I'll be happy to answer. 

I will consider reasonable offers on all items BUT an unconditional "I'll take it" in the thread or by PM trumps. Competing claims will be decided as far as possible by time stamp. Unfortunately, the new board software does not display precise thread post times (either in PMs or in sales threads), which can result in the inability to determine whether a PM post or thread post came first. In those circumstances (i.e., where there are "take its" in both a PM and in the sales thread, and where it cannot be determined from the time stamps which "take it" came first), the "take it" posted publicly in the sales thread will win. Therefore, there is some risk of losing a book if you try to remain anonymous via PM. You can count on me in any event to do my best to ensure fairness to everyone. (My especial thanks to EC Ed for his kind assistance in formulating and clarifying this rule)

I will not sell to the probate or the banned.

Payment is preferred with PayPal but if you need another method, I'm open to discuss, just PM me first to make arrangements before taking a book. 

I will ship comics (raw or slabbed) to the US and Canada for a flat rate of $10.00 for any number of books shipped in a secure box.

I will ship international but please PM me for a quote. I will work with you to keep your shipping costs down.

This is my 109th sales thread on the Boards.  Kudos Thread If anyone has any further concerns please PM me and I am very happy to provide Board “References upon Request”.

If for any reason a buyer is unhappy with their purchase I will give a full refund upon notification within 30 days of receiving the item(s) and upon the safe return of the item(s).

Many thanks for looking, and I hope you find something in my carousel of comics. 

Cheers,

Robert

Fantastic Four 67 CGC 9.4 White (Pressed) $2650.00 $2500.00 $2400.00 $2300.00 Now $2200.00 

Grader's notes

light creasing to cover
very light spine stress lines to cover

Important please read carefully: While this book seems to hover around +/- 3k I have priced it down as it appears to me that the black line to the right of the text box at the bottom of the fc is a foreign object encapsulated with the book (a hair? OMG people ) which means for an owner additional time and expense reslabbing. The pics below of the book in the slab do not do it justice, as they are a bit darker than reality and also I can't get my own shadow out of the pics, so I have included its raw scans at the bottom for a better sense of what the book was like before pressing and submission. 

If anyone requires any further pics or info just PM or post, and thanks for looking

Yes...its shaping up to be a lone rider....although the horse counts too right?

Did you want to sit on the pommel?

Can it really be a sales thread with one just one book in it?

I'm not sure, but honestly I think it's all just splitting hairs...

When it comes to my threads the question is, can it really be called a sales thread if there are no sales?

Is this one of those philosophical paradoxes, like if a tree falls in the forest but nobody's there to hear it...? 

At any rate this carousel is starting to feel more like this one...
