That's fantastic. I hope I get to do this someday. I haven't had the opportunity to buy a collection yet. I'm jealous.

Pumped to see the rest!

I bought a meat grinder on amazon for $60 and it's changed my life. kaptainmyke private msg quote post Address this user
I was going to jump on the spawn books but I have all those ones already. I'm searching out the 200s right now and I'll have a full run 1-310

Random find while reorganizing. This sticker caught my eye. Not bad for a random modern.

Sadly, no. I’ll double check, but I think it’s just those two. I do have a full set, though. Would you be interested? I don’t mind parting with them.

I'm looking to get a set of news stands. Had a set years ago. Wouldn't mind replacing if they are news stands. If the 426 and 429 are the only news stands then I'd just maybe interested in those 2.

Also is there by chance a killing joke in there first print ?

@southerncross Turns out, 427 in my PC is a newsie. It’s a very sharp copy. Top left corner has the slightest knick. I’ll inspect it closer, but at the moment, I’d say it’s higher grade.

@Jesse_O Looks like the last one sold for $38. I’ll probably put it on e-bay for $50?

Edit: unless you’re interested?

@00slim I'm not interested, but thanks for that. I got the first 4 or 5 issues and really enjoyed it. Now I'm wondering why I stopped. LOL

What are you asking for the Batman 163??
Post 94 IP   flag post
Collector 00slim private msg quote post Address this user
@Ginosdad I was considering grading that one. But it’s structurally sound. The inside cover has the original owner’s address rubber stamped on the 1st page.

Creasing at the bottom right corner (could press out?)

In the right lighting, I think there may be the beginning of oxidation to the cover.

Paper quality is quite nice, the first page is more tanned than the rest of the book.

I’d say VG, but it presents so nice. It looks Fine. Depends if the defects press out.

$50, shipped?

Oh! I didn't realize that. Then yes, I'd be interested in quite a few! The ASM #300 and #301, the Batman #404, one of the Gambit's, Secret Wars #8, and the Wolverine Limited #1 (and #2, if that one is in there).

Do you think these are 9.6/9.8 candidates?

Collector 00slim private msg quote post Address this user
@Tedsaid I just made the decision recently.

The Secret Wars 8 looks close, I’d have to double check. The ASM 300 is gonna get slabbed before I sell it.

One Gambit is available. A friend of mine locally expressed interest in the other. But I can get grade estimates together for the others.

The Newsstand X-Men 266 is sold as well as the Death in the Family books.

The Direct Edition of X-Men 266 is going in for grading.

I’ll keep you guys posted on what’s available raw. I’m still sorting and inspecting them. I want to be as honest as I can about condition before throwing out numbers.

Not many 9.8 candidates in this collection, I think the majority are VF, but certainly some 9.4s.

I’m still figuring out what to send in for grading, guys. Please bear with me.

Thank you sir. May I have another? Siggy private msg quote post Address this user
Very much looks like an intact collection at what sounds like a 'too good to be true' price. Good to know this can still happen. Good for you!

Just curious. What part of the US, state or city did you find this. I’m finding out that the majority of collections come from the Midwest. I’m from the San Francisco Peninsula and it seems the dealers outweigh the collectors 2-1 out here. Great find!!!

Thanks! I'm in no hurry, so please, get your sea legs under you, and reach out at any time.
