  1. Excellent seller! Responded to my Want To Buy thread very quickly, and that same day was able and willing to pick up a copy of the book at his store. He also shipped very quickly and packed the book great! Thanks!
  2. nice books! How come the FF 48 is only a 7.0? Back Cover issues? looks much better!
  3. Chip, Sorry to hear about that, man. Is there another run you can give up before Fantastic Four? That would be my last option. I think I'd get rid of my X-Men first if I had to.

  10. Hi everyone, What is the acceptable amount of spine ticks for NM, NM- and VF/NM? I get confused with this, as the Overstreet Grading Guide says you can not have any color breaking in these grades, but I see books that have the color breaking spine creases with grades above 9.0.
  11. Rick, Amazing book! I love that issue, and also number 28 with the X-Men
