Those are my first 9.8's... I feel a paid a very good price for them!!!

And those are all three of the Harby TPB's I ordered - one from Zach (daydreams) and two from Amazon.

If you don't ever get one, ask around. I'm pretty sure there are a few people who have WAYYY more copies than I do!

I'm calling DCBS tomorrow and if my HC isn't on it's way, I'm going to order one from Zach. BTW, how long did it take to get your copies from Amazon once you ordered them?

I'd love to have an X-O and Shadowman in that shape!

They were up on this very site for sale... stayed up for over a day at his prices, too! There was an X-O #1 CGC 9.8 on eBay that was selling, the starting price was $10 more than what seller here was offering!

I haven't been checking the buy/sell boards here recently because if I do, I will only spend money that needs to go towards paying bills on stuff that I don't really need another copy of.

Even if I really want it.

I'm glad to see that the X-O and Shadowman arrived safely. Merry Christmas!

That EW gold flat looks nice :thumb:

And for those who commented, I still have another X-O and Shadowman for sale along with some other 9.8 pre-Unity Valiants.
