My stuff is in storage so I'm guess-timating but it always seems to grow:

20+ Rai #0
25 copies Magnus #8
20+ copies Magnus #5
30+ copies XO #5
40 copies XO #4
40+ copies XO #3
many pre unities in the 10-15+ copy range
5-6 runs of Deathmate golds


And no I don't call this hoarding.... I'm liberating Valiants from the ravages of the comic bins and unworthy comic owners.

Man, as rare as this item seemed before Steve came around, I have to think he has a high % of the total current print run that still exists.

That's the number I'm left with after trading &/or selling 10 copies.:shock:

I wanted to spread the love....:)...& fill in the holes on my common runs!:)

Now if I could only find the missing 9 issues I need to complete V1 & V2!...

Too lazy to count out all my doubles, but I'm most proud of my 20 copies of Solar #1, great cover and I love handling them all at once, it gives me that Uncle Scrooge rolling in the money bin feeling! I have close to those numbers in Magnus #1 and X-O #1, as well.

Does this count as one of those "my wee-wee is bigger (or harder) than yours" threads that certain members hate? If so I apologize to those members for bragging about my "member"! :oops:

I've never really understood the 'harder' thing...if it's a 10, it's likely not gonna get all that hard....BUT IT'S A TEN, for crying out loud! It's EASY to get a 3 rock hard...but who cares?

Poor sucker that you robbed. ;) If only they'd heard of eBay. If every issue was only GOOD, that's a $3,000 lot.

And yes, 50-75 copies of all the Deathmates = mounds of crap. ;) That stuff is good for one thing, and one thing only: recycling.

I've actually taken a lot of the worthless Valiants to 1/2 Price Books and dumped them off on them. They gave me $20 for a box of 200 comics, so I was pretty happy since some of those books you can't give away. I'd rather dump them than have them taking up room in my small comic book area.

I never robbed anyone. That was the seller's price, not my offer. I would have been a fool to pass them up,.....& an even bigger fool to respond to anymore of your childish pokes.

Grow up, Zeph! Or at least get yer head out of yer *SQUEE*! Geez...:)

DUDE. RELAX. It is HARMLESS BANTER. HARMLESS. You have MOUNDS of CRAP. That's NOT an insult to YOU, it's an insult to the companies who MADE it.

And YES...you ROBBED them, FIGURATIVELY. Had they KNOWN what it was worth, would they have offered so little? 99 times out of 100, PROBABLY NOT. But that's THEIR fault, not yours. Yes, you WOULD have been a fool to pass it up, so you FIGURATIVELY robbed them. Not LITERALLY. Do you KNOW what THIS --------> ;) <--------- means? It means DON'T TAKE THE PRECEEDING SERIOUSLY.

Stop being so paranoid and thinking that EVERY comment directed at you is an insult. IT'S NOT. What, are you going to stomp off in a huff and erase all your posts again...?

What was that about 'growing up'......??

LIGHTEN


UP.



It's people like you who take themselves and the world around them so seriously that drag everyone else down.

I don't deserve to post on this thread. I lose the "my stack is bigger than your stack". I think my biggest is 4 copies of Rai #1. Of course, if anyone wants to send me anything to let me have a lot of copies, feel free. Pre-Unity, Gold, and VVSS books preferred. ;)

One of the dealer members of the CGC message boards
has SHREDDED 500 to 600 copies of Second Life of Dr. Mirage #1
to use as filler/packing material in his boxes. :shock:
(I'm totally serious...
Just think, he might have won this thread's "contest",
but instead he destroyed his "ultimate big stack".)

Well, another member has 600 copies of Ironman/Submariner #1. Just to put things in perspective.

I believe I have 150 copies of Harbinger 8.

I suppose since there's "one owner"... the guy who owns the warehouse
would qualify in this topic...

He had around 1,000 copies of each of these...
(Three to four longboxes of each title, no bags/backs... just tightly packed books)
Turok 1
Magnus 21 through 25
Rai 9 through 11
Solar 23 through 25
Secret Weapons 1
