Official Canadian Newsstand Cover Price V****** Thread

18 18

Those are really sharp. I just picked up Tec #526 myself plus a few others:

Alpha Flight 13 9.6

Daredevil 189 9.8

Detective Comics 526 9.6

Hercules 1 9.8 x 2, 3 9.8, 4 9.8

Marvel Secret Wars 4 9.8

Thor 346 9.8, 348 9.8, 349 9.8, 351 9.6, 352 9.6, 355 9.8, 360 9.6, 361 9.6, 363 9.8, 366 9.8, 368 9.8

Uncanny X-men 196 9.8, 201 9.6

 

Still researching DC & Marvel Comics $1.00 or higher. DC Comics are hard to find & Marvel Comics are extremely hard to find.

 

Regular books, or the specials, double sized, and annuals?

 

(Keeping in mind that Marvel stopped printing Canadian price only books with their Sept. 86 books.)

 

All the above. Still researching but it looks like my statement above is off as DC seems to a lot easier to find.

Annuals (Easy to find) 1980-1988

Specials (Hard to find) 1984 - 1988

Double sized (?)

Regular books (Easy to find) 1986-1988

 

Working on Marvel now.

 

 

 

The single hardest Marvel is Thor 370. I've only ever seen two. I may have to take a trip to the Great White North next summer. See some chicks soccer and hit some comic stores. Giggedy!

Just acquired a Thor #370 9.8, scans are now going up! Some monster tough books in grade.

Nice pick up.

Thor #370s are out there if you know where to look........

I have some raw copies but they are not 9.8's and this one came already packaged. I have a great run of pre #337's that look fantastic and I will send them out for grading soon.

High grade Wolverine #3 and X-Men #207 are proving to be tough finds. I know the Wolvie is out there as C-Link sold some a few years back but I'm guessing that people are hording the X-Men issue.

If anyone is interested in later run Jonah Hex or DC war books LMK as I just went through a box last night with a bunch of them.

Do you have a nice high grade #92? I have a 9.4 but would like something higher.

No, my best copies are 9.4s.

As an update, the collection has now been sold to another boardie. Maybe he will post the CDNs for sale at some point.

How many Thor 370's were in the collection?

No, my best copies are 9.4s.

Not sure as I have not gone through it all. The other boardie will have to check for that now.

You sold them without looking at what you had?

For most of the boxes, yes. I was only able to go through four of the boxes in detail. My decision to sell was simple - happy wife, happy life..........

If there is an AF #15 in there someplace I will not be happy.........
