Looks pretty sweet. Mine had arrived on Saturday, but I couldn’t pick it up until today with my neighborhood blocked off for a local festival/parade so the postman couldn’t deliver and Monday being Columbus Day. 

My 7.0.......

I've had my one for a while.

It was  8.5 bought from Gregg Reece a while ago. When I went to C2E2 I dropped it off to get signed.

Still don't have it back but I got a picture of it.

RIP Len Wein  

Congrats on the book!

Just discovered this thread. Here's my 2 cents even though I posted a couple of pics before. This one has better lighting.

Wait it was an 8.5, you got it signed and it turned into a 9.0?  Is that common or just good luck with the person who graded it?

[rebelpk]

I think I did a CCS press.

 

I also submitted my ASM 129 8.0 got it signed by Stan, Romita, Conway and Thomas and it came back as a 8.0

Was it pressed by CGC between grading?

[rebelpk]

I did a CCS press.

 

Not sure if that would have been done during grading or before signature.

Everything was handled by Celestial Comics.

One of these days, I really need to send my 5.0 out for a press & clean at CCS. Looking at it, it should definitely get an upgrade from that.

I used Mike at hero restoration for a x-men #4.

Worth it.

I'd like one too, simply because of my nostalgia with the character, but prices combined with the census (9902!) scare me away. 180 might be a better fit for me...

King me.

Wow, I think my first post was just last page in September about the mediocre copy I bought off ebay and sent to get graded via my LCS.  It's been an interesting few months, getting impatient and unsatisfied with my weak entry into collecting actually valuable comics and buying a much better IH181, then the inevitable GSXM1 and then finally just stumbled into my pie-in-the-sky comic I never thought I'd actually own in a condition I could stomach looking at on the wall, X-Men #1.  Much thanks to the various boardies responsible for all three, I'd have never bothered doing this via the impersonal and aggravating process of ebay.

Yeah I really like this stuff by Collector's Resource for both graded and raw books.  I got that triple-graded one then a tri-folding one that's like five feet tall to hold 12 raw books and cover the back of a desk with wires and my wife really likes it.  Here's the link if anyone's curious:

Good lord man, would you trade it all for 1 9.8? 

[World Devourer]

I have a 9.8 W and just watch the price go up and up. Solid investment.
