The Sewer Lair - Turtle Talk - TMNT1029

I bought a meat grinder on amazon for $60 and it's changed my life. kaptainmyke private msg quote post Address this user
He wants $3000 for all 1-10 first prints I believe them all to be in the 8.0-8.5 range imo

The #3 is not a Laird variant, either. My maths add it all up to around $5700 so it's still a steal but I'm not sure I can commit for some strange reason. I have to sell 2 or 3 of my most expensive toys to cover the expense but even that I'm having a hard time initiating. What's up with that?!

You are talking about Your grail book here. What is the hold up?

Probably worried about an unseen defect?

An offer of $1500 is half his asking price, he'd probably dismiss the off immediately.

$2,000 will probably be closer to what he'd consider.

Selling issues 2-10 should help. I need a high grade #2 & #4 (9.4 or higher). But I can't pull the trigger at the moment myself.

I would definitely be having all 1-4 graded and sell off 5-10 and fugitoid. I can get Kevin to yellow label Fugitoid. I'm debating on getting 1-4 signed by Kevin and yellow labeled too. This is not cheap.

Selling 3 grails for another grail is nonsense I tell you! Nonsense!

If you could get a firm lowest offer from the guy, it might help you decide if it's worth it.

If you can't pull the trigger maybe it's just not the right book at not the right time?

I think $3k for the lot was his firm lowest price.

It's not a bad deal but it's a lot of money. It doesn't sound like he wants to go lower and yet I don't want to pressure him either too hard

Yes, I'm sure that's hitting the OOCMQ thread.

And he won't sell just #1?

If you offered half his asking price for the lot for just one issue, you'd think he would consider it.

Adding the .77 at the end is hilarious. I hope he thinks so.

I thought it was pretty funny when I won my Carl Weathers signed Predator #1 with the bid of $66.66.

That might be a good thing, a solid no usually comes quickly.

The phrase "all in" could have given the impression that it was your max price with no room for negotiation.

But that's speculative at best.

@kaptainmyke sucks when they ignore an offer and make you wait for it to expire. He's punishing you 🤣

So now it got real. There's another bidder and now I'm winning currently. Crap.
