Re: Bragging rights - your best deal of late?
Wow. That was the best $13 I ever spent!
For 13 bucks on ebay (not including shipping) I got 50 Valiant comics. I got:
Magnus 1-3 (which I did not have.), 5,7, 10, 15-16 (Unity issues), 19,21 and Predator vs. Magnus 1-2 (which I did not have.)
Harbinger 2,3,5,7, (which I did not have.) 8-9 (Unity issues), 10, 12,13,15,and 20.
Rai 0,1,2, 5 (which I did not have.), 6-7 (Unity issues.)
Eternal Warrior 1,2 (Unity issues) 4, 6-7 (By BWS! Did not have.) 12, and 13.
Bloodshot 3,4,5,7
Hardcorps 1-8 (which I've never read.)
and Archer and Armstrong 13
This filled in some holes in my collection.

Even those HARDCorps issues aren't terrible. 2 has one of the kewlest Valiant moments.

Re: Bragging rights - your best deal of late?
Here's a pic of all 5 Wigums together. I finally got one of the last variants I was missing ("First Tissue!) last weekend from a friend who went to Wondercon who also scored a couple of the rare Bongo promo books from the Bongo tables. And also the rare newsstand "Throw Up!" (Thanks BruceR!)

Scored one more of last year's SDCC Simpsons unsigned Bongo exclusives for $20:

Now I got a hoard of 4 to go along with 2 signed by Groening and another unsigned copy:

All 4 for under $85 altogether.

Re: Bragging rights - your best deal of late?
as I posted in another thread,
I picked up a pack of 6 VF-NM Walking Dead issues,
#31,32,33,34,35,36
for 20 buckaroos. I would say that's a deal.

Re: Bragging rights - your best deal of late?
Not sure if it is a good deal or not, but I just picked up Doctor Solar #1, 4, 20, 22, 26, 27 for $28.
I suspect they are probably in G/VG condition, but still it is nice to have them!

My wife is Fraking awesome
She (and her mom) went to a street fair in Lodi California today while I stayed home with the kiddies.
She comes back and says some guy had a booth with some long boxes. She went through them and picked out
X-O Manowar #60-64
Eternal Warrior #47-48
Chaos Effect Omega GOLD
All of them are beautiful copies NM+
She spent a whole $4.00 for everything .50 cents each.
Shocking there are still deals out there like this.

Nicely done (by your wife, haha)! I say send that CEOG off to CGC tout suite if you think it would grade 9.6-9.8...take advantage of this price-is-right, euphoric mania we're currently experiencing.betterthanezra wrote:My wife is Fraking awesome![]()
