For those Batman aficionados, Torpedo Comics us releasing a box set of 28 alternative covers. Issues can be purchased separately but the best value comes from that set. Nice combination of artists. Also for sale on THAT one auction site.

For $500 I’d rather spend that on a nice silver age or Bronze Age Batman book that will hold value.

They have been horrible at communication on eBay. I'm going to see if I can get eBay and Paypal to get the transaction cancelled and get me my money back and then it's diving for Golden Age books for me.

Not saying it is a bad thing if into current books and variants but darn, $500 I can come up of lots of books I’ve been wanting to have that you won’t lose money on if done right. I have had many many buys I have regretted like this you listed and admit I still do at times. Lots of late night bidding or buys that the next day I forgot I did until I see the email confirming my payment or asking for payment the next day. Or sweating the end of a auction really hoping I get outbid.
There is a good topic to ask all, if you had $500 to spend on one book, what would it be and in what grade?

Ideally, someone or multiple people should submit these books for approval. If we spread the work out among several people that really helps us.
$500 to spend on one book
There are several undervalued books and some highly valued books to choose from.
Special Marvel Edition 15
Conan 1
or
Silver Surfer 4

I didn't pick up the box set but I did get the Art Adams variants. They arrived yesterday and are awesome. The packaging could have been a little better as they put 3 very thick books in a one of those "mailers" inside a priority envelope, but I am happy with what I got.

I finally got a response from them that the 3 foil boxes for each of the 9 variants were taking longer to come in. Now I just wait.
Glad you like those. I ordered the full set as it was cheaper that way per book (average of $21 per book which isn't bad).

One of the variations - the Comic Mint Mike Mayhew copy is listed as 1027 but without the store designation. I think it should be 1027-TCM-A
