Enormous ! How big will it get ?

3 3

people hate the Treasury because of it's large size...it could have come out in 2002 and people still wouldn't want it.

Agree its why I passed on the book entirely. I may regret it later, but that oversize just is a big turn off no way to store well.

I don't know.... treasury bag and board, spine side down in a magazine size box with all my other treasury books. There seems to be a new one every month or two, so someone besides me buys them. Eventually CGC will slab them, and I will be ready. And I am sure the print runs on all the modern treasury books is small!

I wouldn't be surprise when that day come

and all sudden is the book of the month that

everybody needs to get including me.

someone is being very negative tonight.

Why would CGC slab these? The market is minuscule, they'd need to order an entirely new slab size (not to mention spending the money to develop it), and they've shown that they won't even invest in another encapsulation machine that everyone knows they need to improve the bottleneck that is killing TATs. From an economic standpoint it is unlikely they do this, and even if they did it doesn't solve the problem of them being awkward to store.

If you reread it again slower. You can see am being positive.

#6 9.8's on the way soon!

Enormous SS books are in! Will be offering them here first. Should have them up in the sales forum later today.

OHHHHHH SNapppppppppp

Am jealous.

Question about slabbing; I'm planning on submitting a number of books to CGC soon. I know generally it's only worth submitting 9.8s in the Modern category. With the low print numbers of Enormous, would submitting a book that you're pretty sure isn't a 9.8 but would be a 9.4 or 9.6 for sure increase the resale value more than the cost of grading? Would it make a difference if it was one of the more limited variants versus one of the A or B covers?

If everything goes well with the show because of the low print

run. All the high graded copies will be in high demand.

At this point, I would not grade any books that I knew not to be 9.8s. In the future...? Perhaps.

+1

For now, I wouldn't slab anything that I didn't think was 9.8 material

Does this go for the NYCC as well? I think it has a shot at 9.8, but I'm far from certain.

Ehh, That may be the exception. Personally I would still wait though.

Do what you feel.....man

I have trouble evaluating the the covers for number one. The odd shapes on the cover, the type of stock used... it made it difficult for me. I sent in 4 of what I think are good candidates, but... I guess we'll see.

Hopefully I don't end up with the second 8.0
