sagii Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Wow awesome pickup Pons and awesome books gents!!! Those Champs are SUPER neat!! I too was following and bidding up those books myself so my apologies The #21 went for big money!!! I definitely paused my bidding in order to add this ACE up my sleeve though!! I think I only paid somewhere around 40 times guide for it too so don't feel bad but I HAD to have it and treated it like I wouldn't have another opportunity anytime soon if ever...couldnt even make it 2 ft from the from door before I ripped it out of the package Gino, you are in a very small club with that one! Truly RARE!! Did the Flash deliver it?!? . I would be jealous if it wasn't yours. Couldn't of happened to a nicer guy. That's probably going to be the center of your 'Full Moon cover' sub set I'm sure. Been mobile lately and busy when at the office, so haven't even had time to post my CC win from last week that I PM'd you about( But it's your moment now buddy). Again, cool, cool, pick up. Congrats!

sagii Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Picked up this one for a bargain basement price. Very cool. I haven't started on Champion yet, but have been slowly working on Champ Comics. Got this one the other day on eBay, and had to pay triple grade guide to get it Also bid on a similarly graded #21 from the same seller which went for over 11 times guide!!!! Here's my copy: Not a loser in the bunch! Tough books, with killer covers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Quite an epic buy, Gino. I think we should start calling you Mr. Risk. Are you going to keep it slabbed, or crack it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
