I do not know if this is appropriate I'm pretty new to this Forum and Never posted in a thread like this...

But can I ask how much you paid for these HOLY GRAILS?

and did you get them at an action where you were bidding against others?

thanks

Yes - love me some SIP and need those Antarctic Press issues - I'm envious.

I bid on the 8.0 in a recent Clink auction, but it went for a surprising amount.

Just for you.

Actually, on closer inspection, it looks like a 2nd or 3rd print that was mislabeled. :tonofbricks:

dammit - I will never forgive you..., lol

How do you tell?  It looks like the same version that was on clink, and I can't get your photo to blow up big enough to see what the diff is.

The back cover is different from the first print. Unfortunately I can’t find scans of the back covers for the second and third printings. I just know it’s not a first print though.

The 8.0 isn’t mine. It was a listing I found on eBay tonight. 

I can't tell if you're yanking my chain.., if so, I like it. :insane: 

But it was for pointing out possible errors in slabbage notations, cause like, they don't make errors. banana082.gif

Which, if found guilty, I'm all in favor of carrying out the appropriate punishment.., action-smiley-073.gif

could someone explain to me what exactly "Married Cover" means?

 

thanks

Married cover means when you have the “guts” from one copy, a cover from another copy and you slide the “guts” into the cover to make the book complete.

Thanks - odd that CGC doesn't label them.

They do. The one I originally posted must have been missed.

The one on clink wasn't labeled either.  It didn't seem like all on eBay were either.
