I'll be starting a big Marvel pre-hero sales thread sometime tomorrow morning (all raw) including Journey Into Mystery, Strange Tales, Tales of Suspense and Tales to Astonish. Lots of Kirby and Ditko issues in there.

I'm going to be raising some capital for a big (non-comic related) purchase, so will be putting some books up for sale that I hadn't planned on selling. Most are slabs, but some are not. All of these books were purchased here on the boards except for the ASM #129. Most will be priced right around what I paid for them or lower, but there may be an exception or two. I don't actually remember exactly what I paid for each book, but I should be in the ballpark. Some of these I bought raw and had them slabbed, so that may be factored in.
Currently planning to list:
Non-Slabs: Amazing Spider-Man 129 (maybe a 4.0-5.0) Amazing Spider-Man 50 (around 4.5) New Mutants 98 (9.4ish) Nyx 2 (9.6ish) Ultimate Spider-Mann (9.4ish) Star Wars 107 (9.4ish)
Slabs: Golden Age: Silver Streak 2 (CGC 3.5) Crime SuspenStories 22 (CGC 3.5) Startling Terror Tales 11 (CGC 2.0) - Looks great for the grade
Silver Age: Tales of Suspense 92 (CGC 9.2 Old Label - Boston Pedigree)
Copper Modern:
Miracleman 24 (CGC 9.4 Old Label) Marvel Zombies 5 2nd Print Surfer cover (CGC 9.8) Walking Dead 1 (CGC 9.6)

I've finally made the big decision to get out of comic collecting completely. Every frigging comic I own (about 50,000 60,000 of them) are now up for grabs. Slabs or raw, high grade to low grade, Aardvark-Vanaheim to Zenescope...I want 'em all gone. First $250k takes 'em all.

However, I didn't see the footnote indicating you will be keeping your ASMs.

Damn! Forgot to put that in there!

I have 3 short boxes full of Massachusetts Collection Pedigree books, all raw right now, titles include Our Army at War, Ghosts, Witching Hour, House of Mystery, House or Secrets, and Demon.
I am in the process of grading them now, grades run from 9.0 to 9.8 with very few exceptions, all with great gloss, color strike, and page quality.
The books are gorgeous and I have identified several books that would be top census copies already.
I haven't decided which issues will be going to CGC, many will be sold raw with a COA for provenance sake, but I may be persuaded to sell them all raw once the sales thread begins.
Once I grade them all and get them scanned I will have a sales thread up, hopefully in the next few days.

After waiting for over a year, I finally got the doctors at OU Medical Center to agree I need to have my thyroid gland removed. But I can't get the surgery scheduled until I raise some more money (I still don't have any health insurance). I'll explain all of the details in the initial post of my Shark's Surgery Sale #2 when I start it later today.
