Hi gang:

I need funds for a grail, so I have to cut deep. :(( I'll be listing some books that I've had for many years... mostly higher end stuff.

Unsold items will be moved elsewhere within a week or so at higher prices, so don't delay if interested.

Postage will be at cost. Paypal, check or money order accepted.

Thanks for looking. :peace:

World's Finest 24

Fine/Fine+ (purchased as a Fine+ from C-link years ago.)

Structurally, better than F+, but very light handling stain on right open edge. Scan makes it look darker than it is in hand. Spine is tight and all pages are secure, however lower part of splash page is slightly angled out from spine... this is a production issue with squarebounds. Note that it is tight and in no danger of falling out. Nice paper quality.

Guide for Fine is $267. My price = $220

Fantastic Four 183 35 cent variant - SOLD!!.

I am very tempted to call it an 8.5, but'll I'll call it an 8.0 to be safe. White to offwhite pages. Clean and bright with only the slightest edge wear. Distributor overspray on top edge and an inconspicuous price sticker on back.

When is the last time you saw one of these for sale? :winkgrin:

SOLD!

Amazing Spider-Man 128 - Near Mint

I bought this from my LCS directly from an original owner collection. I can state without doubt it has never been pressed.

A beautiful, bright, 9.4. Coverstock is bright white inside and out. Inside pages are off-white. Overall the book feels very fresh and new in hand. A real treat. The only thing keeping it out of 9.6 is the touch to the top spine corner.

My price = $90 (this is the 9.2 guide value.)

Spectacular Spider-Man Magazine #2 (1968) - Near Mint +

This is about as close to perfect as you are going to get. I have two copies. My other copy is identical to this one and came back CGC 9.8. This is a 9.6 minimum... maybe 9.8.

Perfect edges, a flawless spine and four razor-sharp corners. Fresh, near-white pages, popping color and a square spine... it looks and feels brand new. Your satisfaction is guaranteed!

Slabbed CGC 9.6 copies are listed for around $400.

My price = $225

C'mon you tire kickers... Feel free to make an offer... I have some flexibility on some items. :winkgrin:

I can't believe I haven't even gotten a lowball offer on the 35 cent variant. :doh: This will sell very quickly if it gets moved to CGC Board. :yes:
