Popular Post Muno42 Posted February 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 26, 2021 On top of the CGC 8.5 grade, there is the reputation of Sellers on this site. I prefer to purchase anything from a reader copy to GA key from these boards because of the earned trust of the Sellers.

Badger Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 1 book for sale and it sold within minutes for 5 figures yet the thread goes to five pages and over 3.5k views! The key to success, demonstrated by ComicLink and your cuddly Badger, is DO NOT POST BACK PICTURE SCANS!

silverseeker Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Regarding back cover surprises, I was looking at a Tales to Astonish #49 in CGC 9.0 a few years ago with the intent to buy, but upon close inspection I saw that someone drew a beard on Albert Dorne on the back cover so I passed on it... I'm not sure if it was missed during grading or factored into the final grade, but it was not noted in the graders notes. Keeping on topic, that is a beautiful copy of Daredevil #1...congrats to both buyer and seller! rjpb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a few good customers who were promised first dibs on 2-5 but if they pass on them as a lot then they will go up for sale individually. I might even post back covers in random order.
