Can't remember if Jive is officially retired from this task but why not get it started. Just at a quick glance I see an AF#15 CGC 4.5 sitting at over $12K with just over an hour to go?

Couple of things I like outside of ASM... so we will see what happens.
You got them for a steal.
Thank you, I think I did as well. There are a few dealers that can help me finish this tomorrow but I keep lucking out and picking up the books at better prices than they are able to sell them to me at.
Part of me is disappointed I did not have the guts to upgrade an AF15. That 4.5 was gorgeous for the grade.

I'm MORE than happy with an 8.5 at those prices!!!
Jason, Because that is a killer Dr Doom cover. Nice looking 8.5. Congrats.

I suspect it's because it's a great cover and it's Dr. Doom. The Avengers run has a lot of mediocre covers in its run. And to me, #25 has always stood out with some others like #4, 12, and #57.
For comparison purposes, just look at #24 and #26. They're not a pretty sight.
