I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. drchaos private msg quote post Address this user
@flanders

Nice book!

I was looking at that one but ultimately passed it up to focus on other books.

Came away empty tonight.

@drchaos thanks and glad you passed on it @Caffeine_Kid thanks! @EbayMafia I'm not much of a dancer, maybe it can be my onlyfans name.

@flanders - LOL I saw that and put in a stupid low bid. Figured if I won, I'd crack it, spray some WD-40 on it, and send in for regrade.

By the way, that is a nice Bone you got there. Congrats!

@Scifinator On the CGC boards the consensus is that with rusting that severe it'll max out at a 8.5. I hope your stupid low bid was less than $100.

@flanders - yes, I was out-bid immediately. Probably a remnant of a collection that was hit in hurricane.

For the staples to rust in the slab it more than likely was kept in a safe or a safety deposit box. Slabbed books need air movement.

Coming soon to a desk near @sborock for accurate grading and a Crystal Clear encasement.

That should not be sold in a 9.8 case.

I would be pissed if I ended up missing that.

@flanders a VG sitting in a 9.8 case.
And the rust is pretty severe and it'll get worse before it gets better.

Always buy the book never the grade, this is a poster pic example 👍

Figured since I got the uncanny 266 I might as well pick up the first gambit cameo, happened to find an auction about to end on a nice looking copy for a good bit below fmv and pulled the trigger

The ASM is me slowly filling in those holes. The Batman was an impulse bid where I put in what I thought was a decent price and managed to walk away with it.

Only one for tonight from the @Scifinator pedigree collection. I didn't expect to win it, but I'm happy to have it in my collection. If I end up parting ways with it, 50% of the profit is yours.

@flanders - Awesome, congrats! Good win. That is the lowest yet. But, happy it went to a forum member. And, if you do sell, no keep back.

Gotta say, this week was super slow for my sales. Only three listings sold.
