Welcome to my November Pre-Sale thread----lots of great stuff to announce as we roll through the month.

Many thanks to everyone who took part in the September pre-sale thread, of which 10% of all proceeds go to Hurricane Harvey relief.

As with all my previous monthly pre-sale threads, all books are pre-screened and culled from the finest 9.8 candidates.

The costs associated with each post is indicative of all expenses from cost of book, my time, any signature related fees, any pressing that may need to be introduced to bring it from borderline 9.6 to a full blown 9.8, shipping costs anywhere USA door to door, CGC invoicing fees, etc.

I'll be posting ops for books that are physically in hand and pre-screened for 9.8 standards, as well as posting for books that may not have shipped yet, but because due to limitations of availability, I always need to get my orders in EARLY so as to ensure that I have enough for everyone, as well as some extra either for inventory or to make sure that everyone gets exactly what they ordered.  

My goal is to deliver 9.8 graded signature series books, prices listed inclusive of all costs associated with the op right down to shipping.

Prices associated with each post is all inclusive of all costs right down to shipping anywhere USA.  Outside the U.S., I charge additional based on weight of the box.

I've been asked "Can you guarantee a 9.8?"

I can guarantee that I won't be shipping you out a 9.6 , if that helps answer that question.  I'm not a professional grader (meaning I don't get paid to grade, but I've got a really good eye), and I've been doing this for 15 years and I'm pretty good at what I do.  My reputation speaks for itself.

That being said, anything can happen----a book could get damaged, a box lost, it's not an exact science but I am more than happy to grant full refunds if you're not satisfied or you can return the book.   If anything goes wrong on my end, I'll call you directly to discuss which way you want to roll----credit, a discount, a different book or a full refund.

There is just ONE (1) addendum that I want to throw out there----and that's special requests. I have no problem at all with special requests-----if you see something is coming up and you want me to try and work it, just LMK.  Just because it's not in my thread, doesn't mean I can't/won't do it.  It's just that it may not be something I am looking at.  One other notation about special requests, is that sometimes I am asked to add special additional things  to a book you're interested in from the pre-sale thread.  For example, a remark, or an additional signature.  

I don't typically have a return policy for pre-sales since you are requesting an item/order specific with full disclosure of what you will be receiving.  However, you are either 100% satisfied or we work together until you are!

With that being said, let's roll forward.

My first offering of the month is one that I'm very excited about.

BLADE RUNNER #1 s/s Rutger Hauer (Roy Batty), Sean Young (Rachel), Joanna Cassidy (Zhora) and William Sanderson (J.F. Sebastian) - $795

I've got four (4) spots available for now, possibly a couple more.

Some numbers---blue universal in 9.8 sales between $270 and $160

A 9.6 s/s Hauer went for $350 in 2015 and that same year, a Cassidy/Young double s/s went for $225 (also in 9.6)

There are two (2) yellow 9.6 up on eBay right now with either Hauger & Young or the other, Young & Cassidy (both BIN at $795 ish)

Numbers are all over the place, but there is one simple fact----Rutger Hauer has only done one public signing and that was in 2012.  I can't honestly remember when Cassidy and Young were last spotted, but I do remember seeing Sean Young at NYCC about 6 or 7 years ago.

Below is an image of one of the books that I did with Rutger from that one signing---of which maybe 18 books were sub'd.  That's not 18 cps of Blade Runner---that's total books.  BR #1, #2,  and a few other various items.

I personally feel this is one of those unique ops that only comes around once in a blue, much like the Mad Max signing last year (thumbsu

Star Wars: The Force Awakens #1 (1/15 movie poster variant) s/s Andy Serkis (Snoke) - $375

Only three (3) of these----purchased when they hit the shelves and never got an opportunity to put anyone on it.

Great starter book for other cast members.

Just wanted to clear something up real quick, as I received a few PM's about the Blade Runner signing.

The slabbed copy of said book posted is just a point of reference.  The op is NOT for THAT EXACT copy.  No, no.

Pictured below are the books that are going to be signed by Hauer, Cassidy, Young & Anderson.

COYOTES #1 s/s Sean Lewis & Caitlin Yarsky - $95

Hunted by a legion of wolves that roam the border, women are disappearing. The survivors band together to wage war. Detective Frank Coffey is trying to understand this mythic-level bloodbath when he comes across Red, a little girl with a secret and a sword. Ultra-violent and smart as hell, COYOTES transforms the everyday into a myth we can rally behind. - See more at: https://imagecomics.com/comics/releases/coyotes-1#sthash.c9x2Ievj.dpuf

Unlimited spots, launch signing coming up in 2 weeks.

Below is a URL link with some interior pages, synopsis, reviews.   It's been described as "Underworld" meets "Sicario," for fans of George Miller's MAD MAX series or Cormac McCarthy's THE ROAD.

Carrying this book over from last month, as I now have access to as many copies as I want.

Eight (8) spots were claimed for October----I can offer another ten (10) for the November thread (thumbsu

Punisher (photo variant) #218 s/s Jon Bernthal - $195

Okay----this next one is super pricey just on it's own----Midtown is offering these at $125 minus the weekly 15% discount.

I can only get TWO of these right now.   

DAREDEVIL #595 (1:100 Hildebrandt variant) s/s Charles Soule and Greg Hildebrandt - $195

Here's the caveat----convention season is pretty much over, so I can't get Charles till next year---and the biggest get, of course, is Hildebrandt, but odds are he's not going to pop up until East Coast Comicon/Garden State in July.  That seems to be the one and only show that he does.

So while I know it's a long ways off to get this one done, I still get requests for Hildebrandt from time to time and figured, with this most likely being a tough book to get after this month, I'll throw it out there.

DAREDEVIL #595 s/s Charles Soule & Bill Sienkiewicz - $125

Same as above---won't be till next year when we are able to get these two, but Sienkiewicz is extremely popular, and as a fan myself, I'm planning on getting a few regardless.  This year was unfortunate in the sense that Bill didn't do a show till SDCC (cancelling several appearances early in 2017), hopefully 2018 will be a little better.

Unlimited spots.
