Wow, $1,000 for that condition.  Is that a reasonable price?  Seems a little high to me.

"Why," my soldiers asked of me, "surrender military advantages to an enemy in the field?" I could not answer.

2.0 sells for about 2500. that is about 1.0. i think it is worth it. i am gonna get it restored. i already emailed matt nelson, he said it would restore to about 4.5-5.0 and would cost about 1000.

You think its worth getting restored?  I know King mentioned that restoration has a negative stigma.  Are you planning on keeping it?

i am planning on keeping it. what king said is there is some kind of concious thought in collector's mind that see as restoration as a negative thing. i dont care about restoration. i would rather have a nice restored comic than an ugly unrestored comic for same price.

He said he can get that up to a 5.0? That's going to be some major restoration. Do you think it'll sell for two grand? Are you gonna get it CGCed?

And why would it cost a thousand bucks for restoration? That sounds really steep to me. Is the process really so expensive?

I agree...I dont understand the problem with restoration. Before CGC no one cared. I think eventually the market will correct itself and no one will care...I should have aded you to my rob list...Dont worry I will add you to my real list.

i hope the market will correct itself. art gets restored many times and it still sells for millions. museums regularly restore art.

i know i made it now i'm on superpro's rob list!
