So, I got a call from a co-worker today who heard on a yard sale radio show that a guy had 4 boxes of comics for sale for $200. He took down the number and called me. I then called the guy and woke my son up and we drove the hour to see what he had. He told me on the phone he had no idea about comics and that his son got them from his uncle and just wanted to sell them. So, I bought them.

This is a few of the good ones.

@Mountie73, Wow!

also, you just helped set a personal record, two people making "The List" on the same day.

congratulations on making The List!

I hate both you and @Studley_Dudley for having a better life (in comics) than me.

@BigRedOne1944 @Arak @sportshort thanks fellas. I'm fortunate to live near a few really good stores that tend to get good stock in.

I have been neglecting my pence collection lately, but that should be getting remedied in the near future.

It seems often times I get so picky about books I tend never to end up getting one.

I Finally found this Hulk book with a nice wrap and clean back

New arrivals from ComicLink. The Swamp Thing is gorgeous. For the life of me, I can't figure why it scored a 7.0. Will probably crack and press before resubmitting.

Have to agree, white pages, sharp looking corners and I cant see any spine ticks or breaking colour from the pic. Definitely looks much better than a 7.0 πŸ‘

@Doc_Cop I have a hard time believing a white pages book is a 7.0 usually that means they were treated very well. Maybe spine ticks or something. But I have an 8.0 Spider-Man 101 with a lot of spine ticks and I can’t see anything on yours. Maybe the graded had terrible hand writing and wrote what looked like a 7 by accident and no one wanted to call out the other grader lol.

I counted only one color breaking spine tick and 7 press able non-color breaking minor dings on back cover. Otherwise book is clean. This will be a good crack and press project.
