Not quite a hoard, but cool anyway!

What an awesome sight. Did you find them at shops or did you buy them off of ebay?

bay mostly unfortunately.

Hmm... I wonder how many people here have actually gotten one from an LCS? The ones in my area were burnt out on Valiant by this time and didn't order near enough to get the CEAR. I've had mine for years now, but I had to email a ton of dealers before I found one. They were just not popping up on ebay at the time. The X-O 1/2 Gold is another one I had to search and search for at the time.

When I started buying up pre-unities, late issues and premiums I pulled a couple of CEARs and 6 or so Unity Reds from LCSs. They had more of these than Harby 0 pinks for some odd reason. Unfortunately, all of my copies are long gone now - I sold them during the high prices of 2003 or so when aug002 and a few other big spenders were buying. I wish I had held on to some of them and sold more of others!

Other than VALIANTS, this is what else I hoard. I'm pretty sure there's no one else out there with 5 of these.

Sure there is. But, CGC was forced to invent a new "Sharpie Label", and licensing on that was a major bear.

You know of someone with 5 Venom black error covers? Other than myself?

I got one for $.65 from a LCS about 4 years ago...

Very cool, Woogie. I seem to remember Bro J saying he got one for cheap like that as well.

My LCS has a black Venom in their $1 box.......I didn't know they were worth anything.

I don't know much about CGC. What is a sharpie label?

It means he took a black sharpie and made himself a custom book......

Speaking of hoarding.....

I'm seeing more and more big lots of this book.

chainnball · Post by **chainnball** » Sat Jun 02, 2007 7:56 am

it would seem someone else has this in quantity.

Let me know about the Venom Black!

hulk181man · Post by **hulk181man** » Sun Jun 03, 2007 11:26 am

I'd definitely go pick that up, Frank. And chainnball will make you a fair offer on it, he was the runner-up bidder on the one I just sold.
Much appreciated, btw.

ummm.... Why may I ask are you hoarding that? Anything we need to know about?

Actually, "hoarding" wouldn't be the best term. I've been saving up to 30 copies to hand out to some kids at a Kids Crusade that we are holding the end of this summer. It's a fun, "safe" movie. We will be handing these out with some lessons to tie in with it.

I used to have 3 and 4 copies of certain issues, but when I sold some of my comics off because I needed money, they went too. I wouldn't be opposed to hoarding some issues if I can get a good deal on them.

Might this be considered a hoard?
