Guardian Comics Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Rich: Yes the Canadian WM Black hole is much appreciative of his copy and what namisgr did for me. It won't be forgotten. It was like the FF#1 trade, myself being Brulato and namisgr as Schmell, just on a smaller scale Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korvac Saga Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Ok, I need your opinions, how did I do on these? JIM 87 JIM 105 and JIM 109 JIM 103 JIM 106 -Denny I'd say you did very well overall. The #105,106, and 109 all went for either slightly below or equal to GPA averages. The #87 is a new high for that grade, though not suprising as copies in 8.0 or higher don't surface that often. The absolute steal is the #103. GPA average for that book is $582.93 and the last copy sold for $896.25!!! GREAT pickup!! Wish I'd seen it first!!

Korvac Saga Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Wish the guy could have at least taken the #87 out of the bag before taking pictures of it but a nice selection of books. I was thinking the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trmoore54 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Wish the guy could have at least taken the #87 out of the bag before taking pictures of it but a nice selection of books. And I've feared all along comics being strangulated within the slabs themselves...not on top of that choking the life out of them in a plastic bag...

megaweapon-migration Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 (edited) I figured some of you seasoned guys who've been to shows and seen sales from comic link and other venues would have a better idea, thanks for the feedback! It doesn't sound too bad so I'm happy. Early JIM cgc 9.2 and up books are out of my league so I have to work within my budget.

JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Anyone here think the "lightning up to the clouds" scene in Iron Man is a lil nudge-nudge, wink-wink hint to the "Awakening of Thor?" Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burntboy Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Here is my replacement copy. Remarkably, I've now owned 3 pedigree copies of this ish (also the Green River copy). Although the WM is the nicest of the bunch, this one is only a smidgen behind, and it makes my fourth Massachusetts pedigree copy in my JIM run. 2 great ped examples of this book!! The WM does seem a little nicer. I hope that Canadian WM black hole appreciates his copy!!! JIM 91 White Mountain, Green River, Mass, all in 9.2 - Bah!!! Here's the Sid's Luncheonette copy that i sold a couple of years back. (PQ was ow/w) The buyer also grabbed FF's 15 and 25 in 9.2 and Sgt Fury 13 & ST 114 in 9.0........quite a haul...

RickHigh Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Arex...here you go, My copy of JIM #83. Nothing really special about a CGC 3.0, but... I actually bought this book off the newstand in 1962 and it's been in my collection ever since!!! One of the very few books I have left from my original owner collection. Hope to have this as part of my collection for many years to come. — Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmtg9 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Fantastic book Rick and excellent that you still have it. That same month my Dad bought AF#15 off the rack but sold that back in 1980 Its a great looking 3.0, are there hidden defects that brought it down?
