New to Your Collection #1720443

I live in RI and Rhode Islanders eat chili with beans. esaravo private msg quote post Address this user
So I have been searching through a few used book stores and antique shops in Scotland without any success. Today I found and purchased this comic that isn’t anything like the American Dennis the Menace.

picked up an X-Men 10,102, and a beat up 107

I can’t believe a carrier accepted that packaging!

@HulkSmash I actually went back and checked the guy’s feedback. He’d already received one negative and the buyer described this exact packaging for his item. So, this wasn’t even a one time thing!

I got this today. Very pleased with a 1966 book @ 9.6. Might relabel and update the case. 🤷🏼‍♂️

@ICConquest I wouldn’t. It seems the new practice is to regrade when books are sent in for a reholder. Unless you’re comfortable risking a grade drop.

@00slim oh hell no. I don’t want to take the chance. Thank you for the heads up!

Honestly why would they do that?

@ICConquest After the reholder scam/fiasco at CGC, I think both companies are being extra cautious about reholders.

Got these in this week.

I’ve wanted a slabbed Avengers #44 for a long time. I was holding out for a high grade copy, but I scored this placeholder for a good deal, & the Crisis #1 was almost a throw in.

“Ice Cream Man” Sundae Edition hardcover was a e-bay pick up. I’ve heard good things & quality anthology horror is my jam.

@HeinzDad I just read “Last Ronin” this was week. Is this prequel (?) on the same level?

Not in hand yet but recently ordered these for myself as a treat. Some pressing and cleaning needed but should be somewhat decent when done.

It takes place after The Last Ronin. I have to read it again because I did when they came out but I remember 60%ish being flash backs to Mikey as the last ronin. The rest is the new turtles.

Edit: Ice Cream Man is cool. I have volume 1-8 on tpb.

If I could, I would. I swear. DrWatson private msg quote post Address this user
Just the one for me. I think I've seen it somewhere before... This auction house provided a back cover scan. Kudos to them.

Beautiful book. It's much nicer in hand than the MCS scans.

No idea why I bid on this one. Twitchy auction finger, I guess. Maybe I will trade it for something I actually collect or sell it. I don't have any other FF in my collection. Except for a FF Big Little Book
