These also came out of a batch of some really nice raw Marvels that I bought yesterday.

 

Nothing special I know, but they were three books that were on my want list:

Me too, Shaun - this is one case where the scan doesn't do the FF61 justice (it's really eye-popping). Along with the FF55, it's instantly become one of my favorites of the run from this time period.

Welp, it looks like I'm going backwards. Due to some unexpected events ($500+ in unexpected licensing fees from Real Estate plus the air conditioning unit in my condo blowing today), it looks like my Fantastic Four run I've been working on will have to be sacrificed. I wish I could avoid it, but it looks like it's a given since that's the only thing I have that can generate enough cash that quickly. Just venting here, since today is a sad day and I won't be able to post anything else of mine in this thread for a loooooooong time. :(

 

Peace,

There are sometimes owners of an LCS who will put up a cash loan towards a stack of books as collateral.....at a small interest rate. I've done it a few times. I usually was given 30 days to make good.GOD BLESS...

Well, with the amount of cash I need I doubt I'd be able to get the extra amount in even 90 days, so a loan is out of the question. It'll be okay...I have to just roll with the punches. :)

I also have my Tales of Suspense run, but that extends well into pre-hero and I'm not sure I want to do that. I might have to dip into that as it is, but I'm crossing my fingers first.

 

It's all low-grade stuff, so I might have to sell everything! As long as I don't have to parcel out my Super Powers Brainiac collection it's all items I can replace in the future. I've had the one duplicate rarity from that collection on eBay for a few weeks at $1,600-2k, but there's been very little interest so far.

Thanks for the support!

Chip -- do what you gotta do and do it without regret. In the end, they are just books and they can be replaced. Remember, part of the thrill is the hunt! :)
