Love the fact that liar is part of his user name!

I feel your pain! When I found two of the 5th prints at first I was not very happy as I was hoping for first prints. They came back as a 9.4 and 9.6 and have since left my home and kind of wish I still had one of them! Those boxes were my re-entry into comics after stopping during the late 70's to early 80's. Granted I picked up several comics during the 90's, the X-MEN Alpha release comes to mind! Great times for sure!!

I remember getting the Man of Steel #18 5th print which came in a box at Toy's R Us back in the early to mid 90's!

Enjoying this thread today!

Actually read all of this thread. Best of luck with your overall goal! There has been some great advice posted here as well. Once while working overseas back in 2004 I was trying to decide on what I wanted to do when returning home for good and had previously sold on Ebay for added income. I decided why not sell comics as I enjoy them and always have. After checking ebay auctions and stores, and purchasing comics from many sellers I learned a few lessons the hard way such as sellers with 10k plus feedbacks with less than 99% positive should send up red flags. With that said I met some great sellers both from purchasing and selling online or at cons and many are on these boards. You learn as you go in life so the thing is to enjoy what you do and in this hobby there will be ups and downs, and don't put all of your eggs in one basket for sure. Enjoy the hobby first and don't get caught up in speculation of upcoming movies, granted still was pleased that a New Mutants movie might be in the works!

Awesome! Sweet Batman comics! Grats

Nice find for sure! Love those Campbell ASM's!

Grats! Super find!!

I love this thread! Some sweet signed books for sure!!

Re-holder submissions seem to take more than the 10 business day turn around time listed as current times! Not complaining as it's only been three weeks since CGC received them, and about 12 days since they went to grading/quality control. 1) Old label Cap #122 cgc 9.6 which I purchased from a well known dealer in Florida, after receiving book noticed a minor crack on bottom of the case, went and checked photo of book and for some reason that photo had a different angle from other books their site had for sale. 2) The other two were just moderns, so no big deal! Guess I am just anxious as since I noticed the photo variation on the site, it has had me curious!

Looks like a very nice find Chip! Grats

The purple in purplezeke has to do with me being a huge Minnesota Vikings fan, the zeke part was the name of my dog back around 2002!

Sweet!

Well, after bagging and boarding a couple hundred copies of ASM #700, have to admit many 9.4's-9.6's and not so many 9.8 potential candidates! Don't remember as much of a problem back when issue #600 came out!

Loved last nights episode!

Well, if in fact a WD #98 in CGC 9.9 condition sold for over 12K as someone mentioned earlier then I guess is comes down to the person who wants it the most especially if money is no object to that person then so be it as they might have being doing the seller a favor (which I am certain they did). For the record I watched a video the other day on Yahoo about a dessert in a fine eating establishment that actually added thin layers of 24K gold to their ice cream which went for 1K each! Think this is why I love the boards, and granted only recently came back but after reading many posts here love seeing peeps helping others in need out during times of hardship!

Grats on the WD #36 CGC 10.0!

Granted I love the run overall minus some recent art, but the television show has made so many more aware of the fact that it is a based on a comic! Still occasionally have peeps asked if I watch the show and I tell them I was reading it before the show came out and some are surprised to know it was in fact based on a comic!

Prices will remain steady as long as interest remains strong! As long as the show is a hit and the story stays good people will stay interested, here lately noticed the art has not been the greatest, especially on covers! IMO

Love that Avengers #100! Grats

Sweet Batman books! Grats

What's up with WD issue #80, noticed all raw copies on Ebay are over 10.00. Have to admit I am several issues behind in my reading!
