Unity Diamond TPB #2 for $97.50 shipped

Not sure if prices have stablized yet for big ticket items but I will take it at this price. Now I just need to find a cheap TPB #1.

I don't think I ever post in here, but Booyah!!

Got it for $60 shipped. Yeah, it might not be that special, but it's one of my favorite books and it's my first and only 9.9. I'm very happy about it.

I knew that if I didn't get this book, it would be one that I would regret down the road (like that damn TWD 25 DF that sold for $25 that I thought I could get down the road cheaper).

Holy crap, $60 shipped for a CGC 9.9 of a book that seems to be hard to find on eBay as it is. Really sweet deal, congrats!

That is awesome! I asked my LCS about any and all Valiants and they look at me like I just asked them for a dose of the Plague.

I picked up She-Hulk and Fin Fang Foom Bowen busts and a Dr. Doom Bowen statue all for $30 each, no boxes.

A quick eBay search, looks like I paid about right shipped for Shulkie, about right before shipping for Foom and about all three put together is right before shipping on Doom.

I had some time in downtown Philly so i decided to do a search on my iphone for any comic shops nearby. One came up that was only .3 miles away so i decided to check it out. Fat Jacks was the name of the place. The place was well organized, clean, and had 3-4 tabby cats that patrolled the long boxes (no joke). But the cats were totally cool and friendly and the place didn't smell like cats at all.

Well they had a bunch of valiants to look through all good quality too. A lot of end run issues. But the ones i decided to walk out with were Bloodshot Last Stand, Deadside 1, Doc. Mirage 18, Harbinger 41, Ninjak 26, and X-O 5, all high quality and all for cover price. total was about $22

Not stellar but too good to pass up.

They also had a Magnus 12 for $10 but i decided to pass that one up.

I think jedi has picked all the Philly area shops clean.

I'm in the Philly suburbs, there's some decent shops out this way, let me know if you ever get out this way. If nothing else, you can come over to my house and root through the boxes as I've got a ton of stuff I'd like to sell.

I'm glad you got to check out a LCS. Nice pick ups.

It's not Valiant related but I picked up some bargains on eBay this week. All seperate lots:

15 issues of Batman (late 80's, early 90s)
10 issues of Iron Man (early 80s)
and 10 of the 12 issues of Crisis on Infinite Earths.

Price for the lot with shipping... under £15!
