COI Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Nope. I didn't purchase anything. Toying with the idea of selling everything. Period. Down to the last poly bag. Not to be nosy, but why? I ask because it's fascinating when I think of how many collectors I've seen go from one extreme to another; from collecting the best of the best to not collecting at all. Did you just burn out?

kc120us Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 You X-men high grade collectors let the will of the wind rule your collecting habits....you need a collection you can sink your teeth into and feel more than a tug of regret in selling. Just don't make it something I like. ps. nice books you all picked up there and good luck in your upcoming listing on comiclink Danny. I haven't changed.

I'm tired. I am in talks now with a good friend to help me with my raw books. I am finding that I like the social aspect of the hobby much better than the owning/hoarding portion of the hobby.

There's a lot to be said for the social side of sharing...hence the boards success. Raw books are kinda cool too. Good luck in whichever endeavor you choose.

DrWatson Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I didn't mean to imply that I wasn't, but if you ever decide to sell it. Let me know. One day I will be in a better position to negotiate. Contrary to general board opinion, I would actually give you more than what you paid for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

namisgr Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 My set's been on the registry for a couple years now. I'm happy with it, even though it doesn't make me a heavy hitter in the X-World. One thing that's cool about it is that I've got issues from a bunch of pedigrees, including Pacific Coast, Curator, Massachusetts, Northland, Bowling Green, and Boston.

I'm a pedigree fan myself. I've been trying to get at least one of each of the SA Ped's. I have most of the ones you listed except for the last two. I'm also hope to someday add those as well as a White Mountain and a Green River. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
