  1. I would like to think Gabe made some money off crypto since he was talking it up before Covid and it blew up during Covid.
  2. Looks like an excellent book to practice your restoration magic on. I see a bunch of black marks on the back cover that can be easily erased with your awesome ink removing skills.
  3. huh??? Who is being racist? People are saying your ruined your books. I'm not sorry if your feelings are hurt. You came here posting like you did something fantastic and others gave you their opinions. Calm down snowflake, no one is being racist here.
  4. This isn't the first book you screwed up by trying to"fix" it.
  5. Oh dang. That series is worth at least 1K, so drop the opening offer to $4k.
  6. Lot of drek in there, but lots of potential winners. The Batman v. Predator and DC v. Marvel books will probably never get reprinted. Same thing with the DC Stan Lee books. So huge opportunity for investment books. Vladimir on the cover of that Star Trek book looks like a sleeper waiting to take off. You know how those German covers do so well for Golden Age books. Can't miss here. Offer the seller a low ball offer of $5k and see if they counter. If they accept then it's a big win for you since that $40k savings can probably buy you bags and boards for half those books.

  9. I quoted the wrong issue in the GPA data. I sold my books in 2018 and into 2019. Census number is pretty substantial.
  10. There is a shop in the San Fernando valley that sold 50 cents comics in the back of the shop. They buy overstock books from other dealers and would sometimes blow out their books when they need to clear out their inventory. They had long box specials that were $60 per long box. That's how I was able to get these cheap. They had a long box of Batman #457 for $60 that I passed on, which I regret not buying. 2020-2022 were crazy times for speculators and I was happy to supply them with slabbed 25 cents comics.
  11. 1st app. of Space Cabbie - his claim to fame - one of the few interstellar characters who has actually befriended Lobo and lived to tell the tale
