manetteska Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I love clicking on this thread, but I also hate clicking on this thread. The stacks of 9.8 ASM 300's, Teen Titans 44's, X-Factor 6's, etc. put my Revival #1's to shame. Good job, everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah... this thread can be a love/hate thing when I "click" on it to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGGIEZ Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Man, CGC really hits for water staining. YES THEY DO! My general rule of is -2.0 for a water stain that goes all the way through the book, no matter how big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempus Fugit Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Pleased with this: Thought this might go 9.0 Disappointed with this one, I think lack of cover gloss may have been the culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokarma-migration Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Hi Everyone, I quit collecting comics when hurricane Katrina came and wipe out 19 years of collecting. But after watching the Marvel movies. Nostalgia started kicking in and I am back. I just bought a few silver age and got them signed and just came back. Feel like a kid again. Granted I never had these as a kid but I am getting to fulfilled my childhood collector fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockMyAmadeus Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Hi Everyone, I quit collecting comics when hurricane Katrina came and wipe out 19 years of collecting. Not to make light of the situation, but I was openly mocked (mocked, I tell you!) when I suggested that natural disasters account for a not-inconsiderable amount of attrition for collectibles, including comics.. Nice to see some real life confirmation. Nice books, too! Sorry about your Katrina loss. I'm sure that was awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see some real life confirmation. Nice books, too! Sorry about your Katrina loss. I'm sure that was awful. Thanks for the positive response. When I saw the box arrive and it was CGC, my heart stop for a bit. It honestly move me back to when I was a kid at Christmas. I have only been collecting again for a few months and I hope everyone who collect comics feel like a kid again(like me) even for a few seconds each time they get a comic for their collection. Some comics get graded and some I just read near my night stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
