| New to collecting graded comics and need some advice. For approximately the same price, I could pick up a Secret Wars #8 graded at 9.8, or a 9.4 that has 3 signatures. Thoughts? |

| I say get the 9.8 and then go to the cons and meet the people in person and have them sign it then. ive got 3 sigs on mine. these guys are good people and fun to talk to. hell, the sigs are free, the memories priceless. LOL! | ||

| Ive only been to the con in Kansas City and dont anticipate traveling further for a few years. Plus, both books are already slabbed and certified....? Youre right though Mr Adam R, if I attended more I would go with 9.8. Is the value REALLY that different? |

| No question, take the 9.8 unsigned copy. When it comes to comics, there are three things to consider: Condition, condition, condition. Plus, you can always get it signed later if you so desire. | ||

| In my opinion if you really want the signatures I would go ahead and get the signed one. In the end if the books for you and not for resale get what you want. | ||

| Ask the Magic 8 Ball or flip a coin, lol. Just pick one that you know you will be happy with. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by matthogan6288 Who are the 3 that signed it? It looks like 9.8s GPA about the same as signed x3 9.4s (unless Zeck remarks as well- then they GPA a little higher). I guess it also depends on what makes the book 9.4, and how you feel about it. |

| ive met all three, good guys. they even go to the smaller cons. may be worth looking into how close they come by you for a possible signature. good luck with your decision. | ||
