TEX,

That deal is so sweet, I can't fathom it. I'm very happy for you .... I'm honestly speechless??? God, I hope it passes.

Looks like a nice 7.5 w/stunning presentation. Fantastic!


Thanks DeadOne,

I appreciate that brother. Can you kin it?

You? Speechless? Five minutes tops and I bet that you're powered up, LOL!! You can't be the defender of the boards if you can't talk.

GS X-Men1


$95!!!!!


I guess next you'll need to find a Marvel Comics #1 in 5.0 or better for under $5k???

Are you also buying gold for $200 an oz?
(bandit.)



To answer the question in the order they were posed,

1. I hope!!! 2. I wish!!

But buying this GS X-Men in such stellar condition makes me feel like I got gold!!

>"I paid $95 for this comic?!! $95!!!!!"

I hate it when he does that...
Darn jealousy!

VERY nice condition for that price! AND it is key-sweet.


Sorry sclingerman,

LOL!! I just couldn't believe how great the comic looked when I opened the package. I checked all the pages, and even searched online to see if counterfeits had surfaced. I had it in my hands, but I still didn't believe it!! That's why I was so blown away that it only cost me $95!!

Yah, now I understand those teasers you posted while you were waiting for the package, where yu worried that you were getting scammed. Like the old saying "If it seems too good to be true... IT PROBABLY IS." But this was the exception to that rule.

Congrats, mate. I'll lift one in your honor tonight.

Thanks pmadreenter,

Since this summer I have taken several chances with sellers this way and so far I have to admit that I made out like a bandit. I try to check the people out as much as possible before I buy from them. I get their phone numbers and google them a bit before sending my money...only through PAYPAL. I feel the same as you, if it seems to good to be true, it probably is...but I don't mind taking the chance...if I can take the loss if it doesn't pan out.

Cheers to you brother. Have a pint for me. I'm dry the entire weekend.

Based on that scan on the other site I would think it's a VG/F myself. A bit too much wrinkling along the spine and some water damage on the bottom left to grade higher IMO. Not seeing that in your scan though, is it the same comic?

Regardless of the grade, nice score.

WOW!!! That's just ridiculous!! I was actually looking at both of those issues at my LCS the other day, they wanted $1250 for GS #1 and it didn't look any better than yours does. Great pickup Tex!

Spidey


Yeah, I don't see those moving anytime soon. I think Ken over graded those.

Great find, Tex! I think you got a great deal, sometimes taking a chance is worth it! Wish I'd paid that much for my GSX#1.

I was wondering if you had seen those U.S.  That 1250 definitely seems excessive to me.
