If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8. xkonk private msg quote post Address this user
@Siggy yeah, it's an incomplete story. On the other hand, does it matter once it's in a slab? Earlier in the thread @Bronte linked to an example where the pages were all there (and thus the story complete), they were just put in the cover backwards or upside down (or something, maybe both). That was also graded as 'qualified' due to the manufacturer error, but again it doesn't matter in a practical sense.

Would you pay more for a Corvette with "orange peel" in the paint? Think of all the new Camaros that can be advertised as "manufactured without ECU chip - RARE!"

I have a Subaru manufactured with a Toyota body; it’s gotta be a cool mil and the engine is mint I’ve never opened the hood (JK)

I didn’t think either had factory pink or that rim size.

Has anyone successfully used Beckett signature authentication on ebay auction recently?

I submitted a request and after over a day I emailed asking if everything was okay and after another day, the payment was refunded...

I found a Spawn 235 Black and White variant in a box today. Does anyone know if this is a book worth holding on to? I can't find any sales and the census has less that 30 that have been slabbed.

Will the new Flash movie pick up after Batman Forever/Batman and Robin? Or ignore those movies and pick up after Batman Returns, since it's Keaton?

its a 1:25 ratio I assume sales were low. It seems Spawn would have incentives when sales were down (correct me if I’m wrong) I for one do look for B&W Spawn covers; would I pay $400+? Probably not.

They won't ship your books out before you pay the final amount right?? And they don't sell your books off after a certain time??

@ComicNinja0215 they definitely won't ship your books until they collect.

Don't know about the selling part.

According to Wikipedia, that is correct. I had a piece of it today and I was told it was because it was Oktoberfest week here. Being half German in my heritage, that got me thinking (which is never good), "do coconut trees grow in Germany?" No, coconut trees do not grow in Germany (well, maybe in a greenhouse or arboretum). Anyways, I had to Google how German Chocolate Cake got it's name and found out the info @DrWatson posted.

I love my Moms German’s chocolate cake. Once in a while she’ll order some German’s chocolate cake (or reasonable facsimile I don’t remember which) and make it. I believe it’s my grandma’s recipe; one those recipes that’s not written down anywhere that you take to the grave unless someone asks you for it (you know; the best one’s)

When done right It’s amazing; the rest is trash masquerading and German chocolate cake.

Should work, as long as he makes sure no one eats the paint chips.

I thought lead just defeated his x-ray vision. Does it also protect Superman from kryptonite?

@EbayMafia In the animated aeries at least, and I would imagine there is something similar in a comic somewhere, Superman does have a lead-lined suit that protects him against Kryptonite

I'm thinking about slabbing it and putting it up for about 350-375.00 at MCS. If @Bronte findings are typical then it will find a new home at that price.
