Must be nice to go to ebay and find the series you're collecting/looking for in CGC holders.

Yeah, that's right, I'm feeling kind of jealous right now. Of who you ask. I'll tell you. All you people that collect all the popular series of comic books. Yeah, you know who you are. All you who collect Amazing Spider Man, Batman, X-Men, Fantastic Four, and on and on I could go. Must be nice to do your eBay CGC search and see hundreds of hits for your series there in front of you, what excitment you must get seeing that. Thinking you could find that issue you need or maybe just a up-grade of a issue you already have. Sure, you may not find one but at least there was the feeling that you could out of the hundreds to look at. What would you people do, if say, you ran a search for X-Men CGC and you got no hits. You'd be floored. You'd check your search box to make sure you typed in X-Men CGC right. If that was right, then you'd check to see that youe computer was not frozen. If that wasn't it you'd redo it all over again thinking there could've been a ghost in the machine. Still no hits and you'd start praying. Well, welcome to my world. Every day I'll run a CGC ebay search for the 8 or 9 series I collect and chances are I won't get more than 2 or 3 new hits. Go ahead, try running a search for "Headline Comics CGC", see how many hits you get. Now hold on, it's not that I'm mad at you guys, I'm just jealous of your excitment. Think of it like this, you collect Amazing Spider Man and you need a copy of #1, there are 1,631 grade (CGC) issues, you know every time you look for it at ebay there's a good chance some body has listed one in the last several days. How about #129, ready, 3,320 graded CGC slabs out there, my guess is that a new one gets listed on ebay every other day. I can go weeks with out getting a new hit for some of my collected series. Okay, why don't I collect some series that gets listed all the time. I've tried. I started to collect Batman from issue #200 on. Lost interest in a month or so. Just don't like the Super/Action hero type of comic. I did latch onto the Gold Key Star Trek series, but they only come up every few weeks or so. So, I guess what I'm saying is, I wish I got the feeling you guys must get when you look on ebay everyday and see all the choices you have for comics you need. Some times I see issues so seldom that I have to buy them raw and send them to CGC myself as I did with the copy below which came back as a 8.5 with white pages. Good luck to all in finding what you need, even if it's some what easy to do.
