  6. Green Lantern #13 VF+ : $350 1st Flash x-over; Green Lantern vs Flash battle Books looks NM- with OW/W pages but has small tear/split at top of spine and a very small bindery tear at bottom left. Simply a gorgeous copy!
  7. Green Lantern #8 VF+ to VF/NM: $900 SOLD One of my favorite grey tone covers. Not in a hurry to sell this one.
  8. Title says it all. There will be raw and CGC books, all non-Marvel books. I know, I know, this Forum is for Marvel zombies and a sale thread without Marvel books could be very quiet if not dead but many of these books will be priced very fairly and maybe with the recent DCU announcements there will be some hope but let's see. Here are terms: People on the probation list, or that I may have on ignore, are not eligible to purchase. Return policy on raw books: All my raw books are unrestored and not pressed unless noted. All my raw books are accurately graded and your satisfaction is guaranteed or your money back (except shipping costs) as long as book is returned in same condition as sent within 7 days of receipt. Restoration: In the very unlikely event that I do miss restoration on a book, I will accept a return up to 7 days after delivery, or up to 6 months if you send a book to CGC and it does return as restored. In either case, I will pay for return shipping cost in such situation. I will however not pay nor refund your grading costs. CGC books: Sales are final. The first in this thread or via PM wins the book based on time stamp. Time payments are possible but must be discussed before you make the purchases. I can combine purchases from different threads. I can also start a pile if you want to purchase just a few books but think it does not worth the shipping cost and, as long as books are prepaid, I can hold them for you for as long as one year so that you can buy more and combine purchases. All prices are in USD. Shipping cost depends of how many books you take, where you live and how you want this to be shipped: 1) 1-3 CGC books with $100 insurance and tracking number to the USA with strong packaging is estimated around $40.00. 2) 1-8 raw books (regular size) with $100 insurance and tracking number to the USA with strong packaging is estimated around $25.00. For more books or more insurance, other options are available at higher cost. I do accept PayPal, personal checks (may need to clear if I don't know you though) or international money orders. PayPal is fine for orders up to $1,000. For orders above that amount, checks or international money orders only. Always feel free to send me offers via PM, the worst I can answer is no.
  9. Startling Comics #49 will now be available for sale on Comiclink in May Startling Comics 49
  10. Amazing Spider-Man #8 former CGC 8.0 old label: $1,850 It was graded in 2000 and looks better than its assigned grade, I would grade it as a VF+ and it could probably get higher if pressed. CGC was very strict on those early years (not the case anymore unfortunately...). I own this copy for over two decades and did crack it almost immediately after purchasing but kept the label. Among the defects in the notes, there is a name/store stamp on back cover and overlap of front cover which today are not considered as defects anymore. There is a crease on lower right corner and on bottom left side that do not break colors and would probably be easily pressed if you are into that. I did "upgrade" this copy by another CGC 8.0 that also looks under-graded but with better centering and full CCA stamp (which is very important for me) but this copy here has better colors and gloss. GPA prices in 2023 for a 8.0 did vary from $1,226 to $2,400 with the better looking copies selling for the higher prices. I paid a high price for my new copy and it was not easy to decide which one to keep and which one to resell.
