Nothing major to most but I’ve been slacking on my newsstand purchases. I’m blaming it on the update I did when prompted on the eBay app. For some reason it crops the photos and cuts out the barcode. I can’t make any sense of it and it’s gotten extremely tedious finding them. Won these newsstands for $11.50 including shipping.
Random note, I own the original cover art to issues 3 and 6 of All New X-Men. I love that Kitty Pryde cover.
Most recent preorders from TFAW came in. Pretty well packaged though I prefer smaller bundles of maybe a dozen. There was a few issues with two of the books. Including a color breaking crease that runs along the length of the spine and a corner of another half chopped off. Contacted customer series and it’s being taken care of.
I’m smiling as I write this one up. I’m pretty sure I bought bought both of these from @davidbitterbaum for no more than $2 each through the boards here or maybe eBay. Sold the set for $70. Astonishing X-Men #3 & #6 Newsstands.
Bought this on a Spec from fellow boardie @BatmanFan. Specs in the regulars lounge so I won’t go into any detail. Paid $33 Silver Surfer #9 CGC 9.6. If it doesn’t pan out I still like silver surfer.
I don’t understand the big price difference between 9.6’s & 9.8’s but I’m more than happy to buy 9.6’s all day. Gotham Academy #1 2nd Print CGC 9.6. I’ve been picking up first female appearances for a few years as I feel most are undervalued and under appreciated. Paid $33.
Still hoping to find a newsstand edition of the 1st Print as well.
You bought them from me on eBay before we realized we knew each other. I’m both happy you got a good deal and made a profit for yourself while the part of me that wants to make a profit is saying, “Go to Hell, Todd.” So basically I’m happy for you and regret selling them so cheap at the same time.
I feel I’ve been neglecting my Modern Newsstands and have quite a few new ones to post. I’m in the middle of watching the new star wars trilogy for the first time so it won’t be now.
Time for some Modern Newsstands. First up are two lots of books that I paid just under $60.
Paid $17.80
Nice on that Hulks!! The direct market are listed over $100 now.
I’m half tempted to list it at $300 and see if anyone wants it.
I just picked up one of those Hulks Annuals for $3. Glad to see the spike in price! Hope it holds til my copy arrives.
