Big announcement yall, I got slab #50 coming in this week.... and with that... I have decided to take some of the earlier advice I was given on this forum... Its time... to pool in cash for the big boys!!!! I want to get to 100 slabs and have all the heavy hitters like Blip #1, Nintendo comic systems preview, Sonic mini comic, Maximum carnage all completed. So you might see some gaps as the grails pop up!

Odd to do a 2-day grade when turnaround for resale is not important.

Well I thought I was forced to anyway? The FMV in 9.8 is wayyyyyy over 1k. 9.4 sold for 3k this year. I figured they wouldnt let me just do the standard tier for it right?

Only if CGC looks up the comic. That's certainly obscure enough they may not know the current FMV.

Agreed. The true risk is when, uhm I mean if they damage or lose it then claim amount will only equal the service level of submission. 5-10 years back highly uncommon, but nowadays it's close to a coin-flip

Ah thats what i was going to ask. I paid 1500 for it. I would hate to say its worth 400, they damage it and then I get 400 bucks back lol

Just curious...   I just discovered this book after collecting Spidey for over 40 years and was wondering if it was on your list.  It's an old one, but I think it still counts - if you can find it in 9.8 that is:

Ah! This one.... Yep! I know about it and it is on the list! should be a fun/tough one to find

It came with the Gameboy Advance game! pretty hard to find since you need to find the game complete in box and most threw those away

Thanks, I thought I had all of MVC's comics, but now I know I'm missing this. Well, I've got no choice but to track it down.
