Never thought I would own this but I sold enough Magic cards to make it work!

 

Congrats!  Boy if I had spent half the money that I did buying Magic cards in the mid-90's and put them into bronze age keys I sat on for 30 years I'd be a rich man.  Did you hear a Black Lotus sold for $166k earlier this year?

I thought magic the gathering was valuable too? :ohnoez:

I really did though! We all need a time machine :sumo:

I posted this in CG, but for anyone who doesn't venture over there...

If anybody sees an Incredible Hulk #181 CGC 8.5 with the serial number 2059999001 floating around for sale in the New Bedford, MA area, please let me know. I have contacted many of the local comic book stores and posted about this on Facebook and in the eBay thread here. 

Long story short, a buyer has swapped out the IH 181 I sent him with an ungraded X-Men (Vol. 2) #11 and said I shipped the wrong item. Because eBay is eBay, I will be out my money and the book 

A police report has been filed.

Thanks in advance for keeping an eye out and for any reports of it being offered for sale

Like to have 2 copies of this book.  Picked this up with a trade with a fellow boardie.  Upgraded my 4.0/5.0 to this pair.  8.5/8.0

At this point, I’m glad to own any copy and this one was actually reasonably priced along with the seller accepting my offer.

Looks like mid grade 5.5s haven't really changed in price for the last two years...I remember when they reached 2400 2 years ago

Well we used to think it was over priced too... or that it wasn't sustainable etc.

Given the certain climate and the given amount of copies out there, I think it's comfortably priced where it is at.... idk sometime maybe when its older than it is now, it'll again climb!

I'm hoping for GSXM #1 to catch up, imo the only thing keeping it a little lower all things considered it is that 2nd appearance rather than the 1st of wolverine...

Which I think it'll still rise to IH 181 levels eventually because it IS the 1st appearances of the x-men as we would know them today etc....

RIP Len Wein

A major story arc or “death” of one of those characters will undoubtably give it that bump and if Illyana Rasputin winds up in the mcu fughettabouit

That 181 is perfect!!

Thanks!!!  It's definitely a keeper; it certainly has the best wrap and centering on a copy I've seen.  Just really some coloration issues along the top and a bit along the spine but stellar nonetheless(thumbsu

Picked up a 3 long box collection back in the early 90's for $600. It had an X-men 94, a couple ASM 300's, a few other goodies and of course, a Hulk 181. So basically picked it up for $1

  Have it estimated at a 5.0 but just recently sent it in for grading, with a quick press before hand. Hoping for a 1/2 grade bump.  I'll post a pick once I get it back.
