 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

| Hey all. I will be keeping the lists separate. If you signed up for the forum exchange, you will get a forum member. The gift will be mailed directly to the recipient. The way I had worded the limit for the Club page in the past had been interpreted to mean a $20 minimum. There was some confusion this year when I said a "limit of $20", so I went by what I heard other Club members say and by what I had written the last two years and clarified it. The forum is it's own entity. Do you all want a $20 limit, or a $20 suggested value? In other words, are you going to be ok if you get a $4 comic after sending out $20 worth to someone else? Or should we all try to keep the value around $20? | ||

| It's a gift. What if I bought a $20 comic for $1-3 dollars. It should be "2017-18"book value. | ||

| IMO, it is a gift and should NOT be predicated on an exchange of equal value. Because if that were the case, then my kids owe me BIG TIME gifts until I die. Just leave it up to the judgment and means of the giver. We are all adults here. To some of us $50 is lunch money, but to some of us $10 is a tidy sum this time of year especially. If I gift someone a 9.6 copy of Plan 9 From Outer Space, they should be excited. On the CGC census there is only one listed and it is an 8.5 But the book value of it is maybe $3.00 currently. You will get what I give you, and LIKE IT! In all seriousness. I'm good no matter what you "suggest". I have no problem ignoring your wishes. Never have.  |

Quote:Originally Posted by conditionfreak ^^^ This right here x 10!!! There is joy in giving and there is joy in receiving. Don't get hung up on the "legalities" of it. I think it's understood that we are talking"book" value here. And the amount is TOTALLY a suggestion! It's something so that everyone has an idea of what is expected. For $20, no one is expecting a slab (well, maybe SOME of you are - LOL). Just do what you can and have fun with it! |

| Okay, sign me up. Old stuff if possible, please, like Silver Age Adventure Comics and/or Batman/Detective Comics; or just something out of the ordinary like a foreign comic. Thanks for setting this up, Jesse. |
