The_SandMan Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Lotta spine ticks on that 7.5 Sqeggs...you probably swapped holders, huh? The truth is, given the current tight grading period, that book might well get a lower grade on a resub. Gotta wonder who at CGC thinks this looks great in a mag holder. Granted they threw you a nice bone with the grade, but come on guys....really?? We pay upwards of 100.00 or more per book so it's only reasonable that we expect a quality product please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Love Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 TAR 15 is one of the oversized issues, 7.5" X 11". I believe the length necessitates a mag holder. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know from experience that they've put normal books of mine in mag holders and I wasn't very happy. That is one freakin' rare book!!!

Sqeggs Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I don't want to say, it's only by accident I know. He's a new player with deep pockets (an old story). Glad I got most of mine when I did. He didn't win the DS 28, which I thought went a little high, although it's a very tough book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The height of those early TARs is the problem with using a regular-size slab. Also accounts for the difficulty of finding them in better than VG condition. I have a magazine-size storage box to hold these Bakers and some Mickey Mouse Magazines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicnoir Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 (edited) I don't want to say, it's only by accident I know. He's a new player with deep pockets (an old story). Glad I got most of mine when I did. He didn't win the DS 28, which I thought went a little high, although it's a very tough book. He hasn't gotten a number of books, including a DS 17, PR 18 and a TLP 5, all went for high. But the second inning is coming (OMG a baseball analogy and I don't even watch sports), when Dale's first batch ends.

RICK STARR Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) The silence is deafening about Dale's Ebay sale of Baker books. Very healthy results across the board for almost all the books, IMO. Going Steady's 10 and 12 were the most surprising to me, going for 600+ and 500+, respectively. I really wanted to upgrade my 12, but I struck out on it. Didn't pick up anything, actually. Anymore opinions?

Anymore opinions? I have actually had someone tell me that they had talked to others, and they thought by auction so many books at once that I had left thousands of dollars on the table. And this guy spent over 3 grand and wanted more of the books. I was personally pleased, but I didn't really have anything to go on. A few surprised me.

The prices were pretty strong across the board, so I don't know how much more you would have made by trickling them out. That Sparkle City eBay auction a few years ago, on the other hand, I think really shortchanged the consignor because there were so many scare, high-grade copies put up in one auction.
