Just wondering if he bought them slabbed or subbed them and got this amazing grade

 

I'm not sure, but Juggy is a boss. I bought his undercopy Hellrazor HC, and he snaked me out of the finest set of M-I-B raw books I have ever seen. He has been my daddy ever since.

OK so its worth less now but so what? Still awesome! :cloud9:

 

Quadrant was one of those "you'll have to pay through the nose, kid!" books when I first started collecting (like the Omega Premiere, and the Faust Premiere), and it was a tough book to find. IF you found a copy, it was $100-125...in 1990 dollars. IF you could find one. The fact that it's a magazine made it that much tougher.

 

Flash forward about 20 years, and I find a copy in the magazine box of my LCS....$3, minus 25% discount.

 

It's about a VF, but....it was $2.45 in 2010 dollars.

 

Happy...happy...happy day. I giggled with joy that moment. Oh, sure, it's not worth what it was...but who cares? I got it for $2.45! That's cheaper than anything on eBay, and...I found it in the wild!

 

Now, all I need is #2, and my set's complete.

Aint that the truth, I remember saving my shekels just to get Vortex #1, I could only wish I'd get Quadrant #1. Most comic shops didnt even have anything before #4 let alone the high price.

Imagine what would happen if the grading system was implemented back then and you had that 9.8??????

I would imagine he slabbed it himself. The Jugster's a machine. He puts my drek to shame, and my drek ain't so drekky.

 

:whee:

 

Not anymore. I sold off most of my copper books. But anything can be found again.
