mrlatko Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Too much scribbling on the covers, or I may have considered it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the only ones below 9.8 are the 35 cent price variants. Remember these are already slabbed, so it's not the usual ebay guy saying "never removed from plastic" or whatever delusion. I suggest anyone who cares enough about PPTSSM to be interested in this already has many of them, which is the downfall of big lots like this.

AbsoluteCarnage Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I have a lot of nostalgia from buying them off the newsstands and at comic shops and love many of the covers but as far as trying to get them all in 9.8 I could never see the return from collecting them as in the back of my head I was thinking "how many people actually collect PPTSSM???" Left wondering if even breaking even on something that seems to not move too much pricewise upon possibly having to move them later on, I stayed away from Web of and this title but still..... many nice covers. One hell of a collection at any rate and can't blame someone for going on a fishing expedition. Someone with too much money might pay for the convenience of a full collection that well assembled. Who knows. A few of my favorite covers other than the obvious Kraven's Last Hunt and early books in the run were: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just few 9.8 copies. I didn't expect to see his unique collection. I don't have 35 cent variant copies either. This is my third set after I sold two full sets - no more than $450.
