I own this book. I found at half price for like 50 cents I think. I think it’s a nice 9.6 grade too…
Wait, I accidentally lied. My copy is direct. 20 lashes for me!
What about 656 and 657? Got any of those in newsy?
Yes, multiple raw copies of each and some graded as well. I don’t think I have a 657 graded newsstand though.
I was looking at this one a couple of weeks ago for potential crack and regrade. Good candidate.
I’ve been grabbing 657 out of bins when I see it under $10.
I have the other two graded, but no newsstands.
Had my eye on a CBCS 9.8 for a while (direct) for under &100. That’s gone now.
Many 657s flying off eBay today…(58 so far?)
You need to stop buying BM 657’s so I can get one.
I’m only buying the nice cheap copies. Lol.
My shop has a 656 for $50. Maybe I can get them down to $40? Worth it?
Edit:
I don’t think it is newsstand tho. Need to double check.
If it’s a 9.8 candidate.
If not, then no.
Hey @ToddW are these two books newsies?? I know they’re older and newsies were still a primary POS for comics at the time, but I just picked these up and noticed the barcodes.
Yes, they’re newsstands. I believe Dazzler #1 is considered to be the first direct edition so everything was a newsstand until then.
That’s a solid deal!
Nice score! Good to see you post again.
