aszumilo Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 The "Avengers" book is work about $14,000, according to experts. I "wonder" who these experts are? I'll sell him my 2.0 Avengers #1 for $8000, you know, just cause I feel sorry for his loss. He would come out ahead after the insurance pays off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GomerPyleUSMC Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 The burglar is gonna be disappointed when he discovers the comics he's stolen don't look as nice as Chuck's stock images he's seen online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tec-Tac-Toe Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Apparently, the thief left the current MHC discount code written on a note by the cash register. Accordingly, he received a discount on the reported $42,000 worth of stolen comic books. Yes, lame, like $42,000 worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThothAmon Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Funny (not ha ha funny) to hear Chuck’s take on the morality of comic book “fanatics”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have the camera(s) but I would think an alarm system would have been step numero uno. Even the smaller shops I went to back home all had alarm systems. From the video the guy was in there for 20 minutes. He had essentially all the time in the world to clean out those showcases. Stuff just isn't lining up to this story imo.

dupont2005 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Wouldn’t put an insurance job past him. Especially since I suspect there’s no way he’s selling enough dollar bin drek to keep five warehouses and who knows how many employees afloat.

Robot Man Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Don’t comic stores remove high dollar books from display when they close? It would seem to be the wise approach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
