SOLD AND CLOSED Two High Grade Mutant First Appearances - X-men #12 CGC 8.5, Iron Fist #14 CGC 9.8 1 1

[Corvonie]

Hi all,

Selling two stunning recent returns, they'll each get their own post.

TERMS:

People on the probation list are not eligible to purchase. 

Since this is CGC, all sales are final, but of course if the book doesn't arrive correctly, that's a different story.

First in this thread or via PM wins the book based on time stamp.

All prices are in USD.

Priority shipping within the US is included.  If you want to insure it, that's available up to $5000, according to my research. We can insure it to your level of comfort including through alternate insurers.  Book will be securely shipped in the same packaging/style as it came back from CGC.

I would ship internationally but would have to calculate rates etc when we find out where I'm shipping.

This is my 5th sale here, so please ask about anything I may have left out!

I don't have a ton of Kudos on the boards yet, but did sell one book right around this price, and have gotten only good feedback so far.  I have a longer track record on reddit comicswap, and of course, am happy to discuss via PM and do what I can to make any buyer feel comfortable.

I'll prefer personal checks (will likely need to clear as I'm new here), money order, or Zelle.  But I'm happy to work with any buyer if you have another preferred payment method.

Feel free to send me offers via PM

it's my 5th sale

First up, X-Men #12 - CGC 8.5 White Pages.  I was pretty surprised that this didn't come back a 9.0 or higher.  I guess the diplomatic phrasing is "a beautiful example of its grade" .  

The last sale on Heritage was a few days ago and, imo, a far inferior copy.  Here's a link to that one: https://comics.ha.com/itm/silver-age-1956-1969-/superhero/x-men-12-marvel-1965-cgc-vf-85-white-pages/a/122414-11692.s?ic4=ListView-Thumbnail-071515, you be the judge, maybe I'm just obsessed with corner sharpness.

This is one of the books I was reticent to slab because the interiors are just incredible (interior pic is pre-press, hence the crinkle in the corner).  So we've got raw pics, the CGC scans, and pics of the slab in hand.

SOLD to @lizards2

Next up, Iron Fist #14 CGC 9.8 OW/W.  Another great example.  I half expected this to come back with one of those new fangled 9.9s but I guess you don't get that with OW/W pages .  But I couldn't find a flaw on this book.

Last sale on Heritage was two weeks back for $3840 and shows an upwards trend in the book, but that one has White Pages.

SOLD PER PM

The corners and color strike on that X-Men 12 are just....

Great books from a FANTASTIC boardie, imo. Somebody is going to be very happy with their purchase.
