Detroit MIke Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Detroit Mike, that is a fine looking B&B #29! Mine's nowhere near that nice but I got it for a good price 10 years ago at Comix Oasis in Allen Park. Thanks Shadow. I've been looking for a 6.0 or better. It seems to be the hardest of the 3 issue run to find above a VG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 For now, let's just say it wasn't the #16 ($1300+); I thought you might be the winner of this one, Tim, until I realized the C-OW pq. Glad Scott finally sold it...unless he sold it earlier & the new owner just now flipped it...?? Rick It was still mine. I can thank the NPB from a couple of years ago. Their loss, my gain. Score!! (thumbs u Still keeping tabs here, huh? You lil Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookley Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I already have a JLA 37 in CGC 9.4, but that 9.6 went for much lower than I thought. If I didn't have one already, I would have bid much more than $650 Thanx for saving me money! Rick Rick, That was a great buy at that price (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 All things being relative, I would have to agree,,,for now anyways. Thanx! Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) Considered #15, but: It was only one grade up above mine. The top edge is too dingy & yellowish-brown. The spine is not as straight as mine. The bottome edge looks suspicious. Overall, the lack of eye-appeal severely overrides my "need" to upgrade. The PQ was appealing...but not $800+ worth of appeal. Money better spent elsewhere. Rick Edited February 22, 2008 by JLA_all_the_way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 [/img] Here's one I got at age 16. It hung on my wall for a couple of years as a "pride & joy". Now I know better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john72tex Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 Is that a rip or printer's crease under "Riddle of the Robot Justice League"? Too bad about that corner though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Printer's crease. At some point, I'll upgrade on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tth2 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) newly encased Sweet copy, Mike! Without question the most nicely centered copy I have ever seen. Looks nicer than any of the 9.4 copies I've seen on sale, and doesn't have the annoying miswrap that most of them seem to have. What's knocking it down to a 9.2?

What's knocking it down to a 9.2? i pizz on 9.4's. i told them i wanted the world's only 9.2. i think the scan makes the book look even better then it is- i'm going to have to have it in hand to point out the minor things that may have knocked it down. i thought it was a 9.2.

tth2 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 i pizz on 9.4's. i told them i wanted the world's only 9.2. Of course, technically yours is the 2nd 9.2. I had the first 9.2, which became a 9.4 after Josh bought it on Heritage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
