faster friends Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 My uncle has hundreds of Byrne xmen, Miller DD, and most 80’s books. He was a heavy speculator when he had comic book stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liefeld has also claimed they sold five million copies of xforce 1, which no one believes. Don't put much stake into his claims.

That was actual advice on how to acquire the connections to get access to these crates of comics you desire. Your money isn’t going to get you anywhere if nobody knows who you are. Congratulations on bragging about it in a conversation where nobody asked though, I’m sure you’re the richest guy here 😎 ComicConnoisseur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronze_rules Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 (edited) Anecdotal story: I once saw a full box of ASM 500 at a Tower Records/Books going out of business Sale. The entire box had maybe less than 1% of ding free high grade copies. By the time I brought my 5 or so nice copies to the clerk, they proceeded to waddle them up and throw them in a bag. I tried to stop that, but alas... So, either it was picked through many times already (without any consideration), or employees kicked the box around several times before it got to that point. What I wonder more, is how do people find a full box of all high grade copies? I would figure that each route lowers the aggregate grade every time they get moved around. Raise your hand if you've ever accidentally somehow dropped a long box, and shed a tear or two (hand raised).
