Just got this today. I knew the VvsVU 1&2 were both price variants, but it turns out that all 19 Valiant books in this lot were newstand books. Outside of the Turok with slight tears, the rest are all VF+ or better.

0, that is some serious ebay-fu. Nice find.

Yeah, I was emailing the seller and trying to get him to sell me just the Valiants and then you hit the BIN. Good pick-up!! I snoozed...

SOlar revo does not have a painted cover. But regardless, still a great deal.

Yep... three weeks since it came out of the box.

I would never pay $959 for a chair, but I will pay $100 for a $959 chair.

Three weeks - not even enough time for the previous owner's cheeks to leave their imprint!

I recently picked up 9 copies of Solar #1 in NM for $12, which I thought was cool.

If i recall that wasn't the cause of the animosity...it was how you handled the sale and subsequent comments that stirred the pot.

No, it was quite immediate and the only thing I did was attempt to keep it off of ebay and keep it in the fam. I even sold it for a hundred less that what it last went for at auction, it was like being kicked for showin sum love!
