Cherry Picking

[nik]

And I dont mean the fruit

I love when I get a call from my LCS and I get a chance to go through a recent collection.

 

I bought about 300+ common BA books from him, avg cost ended up being about $3.00 each.

I figured Id share a few (I dont want to bore anyone)of those books that were slabbed.

Post 'em all. Love going through new collections at my LCS...

[october]

Yes, post em!

I'll give you $6 for the FF 155!

 

I suppose if I dropped that kind of money at my LCS, I'd be getting calls to.

 

As it stands, all I get is the "Aren't you ever going to buy anything?" and "Do you really collect comics?" kind of questions.

nikos everyone of those was fabulous. Seeing that FF again brings back memories.

The silver surfer on that cover has always been a great little drawing.

One of our surfer posters should use it for an avatar.

Speaking of which, I made that avatar for you back before Halloween, and you're still running around with it.

What's the deal?

Sweet books,nikos! The last time my LCS had a OO collection was about a year ago when they were selling some of Bob Wiacek's X-men's. Unfortunately, by the time I got there, they were already sold.

How does opne get to look through collections at their LCS? Seems an impossibility to me.

Spend a lot of money, sell some of their stuff on eBay, and be friendly.

Talk to the owner, let him know what you like, and when a collection does come in and he calls you, buy some stuff. Thats how i do it at my LCS, but he doesnt get in the stuff like Nikos' does though!
