mattn792 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) Time to tell some books that I haven't looked at in years to... Payment: In addition to PayPal, I will also accept check / money order / Zelle, though the book will be held until clearance (which is pretty much immediate with Zelle). Payment due within 5 business days. Shipping (domestic): Shipping for raws (they get heavy quick, especially with how securely I pack them): 1-5 books - $4 (USPS ground), 6-14 books - $9.50 (USPS priority flat rate envelope), 15 and above - $17 (USPS priority flat rate medium box). USPS includes $100 insurance by default. If needed, ping me for a quote on insurance above $100. Shipping (international) - Please inquire first for an accurate quote. Returns: Raw returns accepted if I fail to disclose something or we wildly disagree on grade(s). Please initiate that conversation within 5 business days of receipt, and we can also try to work out an alternate solution. On the HoS? Probation list? Or we have some other beef (on my ignore list, bad con interaction, etc.)? Don't bother. Can provide board references if needed (no name dropping here), and over 1700 positive eBay feedback as well -- https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=792mn. And I've got a fledgling kudos thread started (link is in my profile page). ALL BOOKS INDIVIDUALLY BAGGED AND BOARDED UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED. First posted in the thread wins a book outright (so don't PM it to me, a thread take it wins out regardless of time stamp). Offers always welcome.

mattn792 Posted January 15 Author Share Posted January 15 Starting off with a full run of Savage Wolverine, issues 1-23. Standard releases only, no variants included. Books have been bagged and boarded since I've owned them and read once or less. I would not be surprised if there were a few 9.8s lurking in here. $35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattn792 Posted January 15 Author Share Posted January 15 (edited) Batman 497, Bane break's Batman's back. As is, I have this in the 9.4-9.6 range due to very slight blunting of the spine corners and three small spine tics that are only visible when angled to a light. So with a press...maybe this could make a 9.8? $10 (sold) Spoiler Spoiler Edited January 25 by mattn792 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattn792 Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 (edited) Vengeance of Bane, 1st print. I peg this at a 9.4/9.6, as it currently stands - 2 spine tics on the front cover (1 color breaking), 1 on the back cover, and the reading crease is a bit more pronounced than you'd typically see on this book. I cap it's grade potential at a 9.6. $80 Edited February 4 by mattn792 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattn792 Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 (edited) Gambit duo -- Uncanny X-Men 266 and 267, 1st and 2nd appearances in the monthly series. - I rate 266 as a 5.0 (with white pages) due to a few ripples that run top to bottom through both the front and back covers (might press out though). Back cover certainly looks worse than the front. In response to a question received, I definitely do not think these ripples are water related judging from the feel of the book (there's also no water staining to indicate moisture damage). It's more like a "crunch" to the two covers, like the book was stored funny and for long enough that the bends were able to stick around. You can also see it's effects on some of the interior pages, though they don't sport the same crunch look, just some mild bends. - I rate 267 as a 9.2. $old Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Edited January 17 by mattn792 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattn792 Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 (edited) FF 347 - 349. Exciting new fill-in team steps in. Ungraded, all readers, notes as follows: - 347: Very Good/Fine. Book has numerous small spine tics on the front and back covers, as well as several non-color breaking bends on both covers - 348: Fine, though I believe with the potential to press up substantially (possibly to 9.0?). The book has a few color breaking spine tics, mostly on the back cover, as well as a number of non-color breaking bends, also mostly on the back cover. - 349: Very Good/Fine. Book has numerous small spine tics, and a substantial non-color breaking crease on the lower right quadrant that runs throughout the book. This would also likely press out if so desired. $12 Edited January 19 by mattn792 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattn792 Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 (edited) Marvel Comics Presents 117-122, Venom/Wolverine storyline. Didn't realize how popular these had gotten until I checked eBay. Happy to grade any or all of them if asked. Front covers all looked great upon cursory review.
