    I was thinking of taking a shot at upgrading my membership to the EERIE #23 Club with some Christmas money last night, if this little beauty had stayed south of $200, but nope...

    It was actually kind of a double-whiff, as one hour earlier...

    Oh well...  Here's to another year of searching.

    Wow! I haven't kept up with prices, sheesh. Magazines no longer under the radar?

    so I have a combination of either rats or bed bugs in my studio apartment (rent controlled) in the upper east side. have had a lot of similar issues with comics. set up a mouse trap with a block of swiss cheese, but waken up at 3 am one morning and forgot about the trap. tried to grap the cheese and the thing got my finger. YOUCH!

    Rats or bedbugs are so far apart.

    Yeah, I don't know what particular book you're talking about.

    I was just making a joke about a "staple" of EERIE #1 reprint identification--the blue line on the staple.

    Nerv is absolutely correct . That IS  the blue staple copies.

    Going through the thread looking for something and had to comment on this, nicest copy I have seen and getting overdue recognition now. 

    It really is a beautiful copy, and still own it.

    I would place it in 9.0/9.2 ish area. Which for this book is rarified air.

    For sure, but that literally is an easy button at CGC to fix in 5 minutes by just having whomever deals with ME or reholder's have a fail safe process in place.  Something was obviously not happening and I sure now going forward it will. 

    I mean every year that CGC has been open any reholder/ME of a HULK #181 the employee should be checking the book real quick for the MVS stamp, same for Mark Jewelers inserts.   That is where CGC is to blame for sure.

    You are a wise man my friend, however trust in the product  HAS wained because if one slab is tainted you must be suspicious of ALL slabs . It would be a nightmare to go back , plus going bankrupted in that time. So they must push forward to instill confidence in their product.  Right now MY confidence in their product is subpar, so fix it before I give them any more of my money. Easy really.....😂

    It does have some cosmetic scrapes or chips used on the body, but I appreciate it that you took the time to listen, it's not comics but lol

    Bought it from my pastor who was parting ways and since I was looking. I got it and the gr55 for the cost of that guitar new, and I've never had a synthesizer so it sounded palettable!

    But yours goes vroom vroom, I'm hoping there are some open roads for you in the future! Freedom and some company to join you. :)

    That's some nice driving.  ^^

     

     

    The scrapes and scratches make a guitar even more beautiful.  Then you know the guitar has been loved.

    Awesome! Keep that tlc, you deserve it. :)

    I got these to play with as an upgrade, and probably the last I have until the Lord provides, it's all I needed at the moment for sure though. Finally get to enjoy maple and rosewood type prs lol

    PRS are beautiful guitars. 

    Is that a Floyd Rose? Hard to tell.
