  1. Thor #202 VF/NM to NM- : $60 1st Ego-Prime. Small ding on middle spine prevents this book from being solid NM. Cover is exceptionally white and clean on this one compared to most other available copies.
  2. Thor #176 VF+ : $30 Looks NM- but slight impact ding on upper left corner that barely breaks colors.
  3. Conan #58 VF+ : $25 1st app. Belit Book is NM-/NM from the fc but the bc has a small tear/scratch/hole just below the word "Evel" Now for those of you whom may say: "hey, wait, the OSPG says that the 1st app. of Belit is in GS Conan #1" then I have to disagree, as her name is mentioned in the GSC 1 but she is not shown (only Valeria is). Judge by yourselves: Inside page of Giant-Size Conan #1 below:
  4. Conan #14 NM- : $275 1st app. Elric From the Fantast collection, comes with certificate
  5. Iron Man Comicorama #1069 VF+ : $20 Bound volume which includes French Canadian's Iron Man #20,25,26 and Thor #26 from Éditions Héritage. Those books were black and white French reprints for Iron Man #65, 70,71 and Thor #216. These bound volumes are hard to find intact as most of the time people were detaching the books to fill their collection.
  6. Iron Man #47 CGC 9.2 (old label): $350 To the best of my knowledge, this book has not been pressed. One of the toughest BA Iron Man issues (along with #44) to find in high grade and this one looks better than its assigned grade. Almost flawless spine, some distributor's ink at top edge with a micro-ding that does not break colors and a very tiny crease on lower right corner that barely break colors are the only flaws that I can find. Very tight grading from CGC in those early years. No grader notes available
  7. Tales of Suspense #71 VF+ : $65 Book looks better but has tiny foxing dots on the upper left side. Also, I am 99% sure that this book has been pressed, hammering the price because of that.
  8. Tales of Suspense #68 VF+ : $135 Book looks NM- at first glance but has impact ding on lower right corner and on upper left corner that do not break colors so it has obvious pressing potential.
  9. Tales of Suspense #49 VF+ : $1,100 Very undervalued issue and a tough one to find in high grade. Book was formerly a very early CGC 8.5 blue which I did crack to keep for my collection 20 years ago. I found a slightly better copy so this is my undercopy. Unfortunately, I was not keeping labels during those early years so there is no label included. I agree with the grade though; it looks better from the front cover but there is something on back cover near the lower staple. It looks like some kind of light abrasion (not a stain).
  10. Title says it all. There will be raw and CGC books, all Marvel books. Many will be priced very cheap and some will be not. 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.
