ChiSoxFan Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) Welcome to the Gold/Silver/Bronze section of my Holiday Blowout Sale! I have a long history of buying and selling on the boards with nothing but good transactions. I'll have a similar thread in Copper/Modern to pair with this one -- everyone is welcome to combine purchases from them. I hope to post a large number of books every day, but these will be lengthy threads that might take a while to get everything listed. I'm normally willing to wheel and deal on things, but with significant discounts from previous pricing in effect, that's going to be less likely for this sale. Everything here is from my most recent sale in this subforum -- just cheaper. There will be some lower-grade books at $5 and under at the end of the thread. Prices for everything else in the sale will have the original price listed -- with the new, lower marked-down price in red next to it. What's for sale: Here, some keys, mostly high or higher grade books, a few lower grade books, in Silver and Bronze. Almost all books are from letter A-G. There will be a group of $5, $3, $2, and $1 books at the end of the thread. Check out my companion thread in Copper/Modern for more goodies! About me: I have had a very large number of transactions that have gone very smoothly with many long-standing members here, including many, many sales threads -- you can see my kudos HERE. I've done deals with so many people here, I've almost lost count! If anyone has questions, don't hesitate to send a PM and I'll do my best to answer them for you. I'll be happy to answer any PM's, but the in the thread is king if we haven't come to a definitive agreement. If for some reason someone takes it in a PM while someone is taking it in the thread, the time stamp as best as I can figure out will determine who gets the book. Books must be specifically claimed in the thread or via PM. No HOS or Probation List members, please. I reserve the right to not sell to anyone I may have on ignore (not that it's many people, but if I do have you on ignore, it was for a reason. ). Shipping: Shipping for orders under $500 will be by U.S.P.S., packed securely in boxes, via Priority Mail and at cost. USPS Priority Flat Rate will be used when it's cheaper and best suited for the order -- USPS Ground is an option if there is a significant difference in the shipping cost. Signature confirmation may be used for orders over $250. For orders over $500, I may use the option to ship via FedEx with a signature confirmation required. Sorry, no Media Mail. Sorry, only U.S and Canadian orders at this time. Upon payment, I should be able to ship to you within 72 hours of payment (most likely sooner -- that will vary depending on how many buyers these threads end up with). I always charge exact shipping or LESS (and eat some of the shipping cost on my end) to keep costs down for you, so rest assured, I'll do what's best to make sure you end up with everything safely and as least expensive as possible. My packing, as reflected in my kudos, will overcome anything a carrier can throw at it. Payment: PayPal G&S only preferred on this thread, no personal. If wanting to pay by check or money order, I'll do so only if I've done business with you before, but please contact me by PM first. Payment is expected within 5 days of an invoice unless you check with me before buying. For purchases over $250, you need to be someone with an established track record here, someone I've dealt with before, or have references from another boardie. Time payments are available on purchases over $1000, but please contact me first before claiming. Returns: Returns are accepted for any reason so long as you let me know within 5 days of receiving your order. Buyer pays return shipping, unless I've made a clear mistake, in which case I promise I'll make it right. I feel my grading is solid, but I'm as human as anyone else and might have made a mistake. In the end, the main thing is that I want anyone purchasing here to be happy when they're done and feel they can buy with confidence. Hopefully, my lengthy track record will speak for itself So let's get it underway, shall we? Edited December 18, 2023 by ChiSoxFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSoxFan Posted December 9, 2023 Author Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) Incredible Hulk #172 -- VF -- 8.0 -- $40 $24 -- SOLD to DC# There are staple holes that have no staple that go through the entirety of the book, a little more than halfway down through the spine. There's two staples where they should be otherwise, so I have no idea how or why these ended up here. The book presents nicer, but it's marked down for that defect.
