wilblas · Post by **wilblas** » Fri Jul 10, 2009 5:31 pm

I picked this comic up about 4 days ago. It's The Amazing Spiderman #300 1st Full Appearance of Venom. The first person who can guess how much I paid for it, wins a Wolverine #1!! Wolverine #1 scan below the Spiderman #300 scans.

Rules: The first person who guesses how much I paid for the ASM #300 shown below wins. Everyone gets 3 guesses. All guesses must be posted here no PMs or e-mails will be accepted. I'll let the contest run for 7 days. If no one wins. I'll run a different contest for it, until it's gone.

Prize: Wolverine #1

I won this Wolverine #1 on eBay about 2 months ago. It was listed in NM/MT++ condition. It's not in NM/MT++ condition, so I really don't want it. I thought this would be a fun and good way to get rid of it.

Thanks,
Wil

Cool!

It's not that hard when you left your psi-shield down.

I hate it when that happens.

iggy101us- Thank you. I couldn't believe the price when I bought it. I went to a store called Vintage stock in Oklahoma City and they just bought a long box of comics from some guy and they let me look thorugh it. I almost died when I seen that in there. I asked the guy at the counter how much it was and he said $2.50 for any book in the box. It's the best looking Spiderman #300 I've seen in hand!! Man, that was way to quick for that contest. I'm going to look through my stuff and see if I can find something else. So, I can run another one tonight.

Thanks,
Wil

I have found some nice things at a Vintage stock before. I once found a Predator mgnus TPB for $2.00 at a Vintage stock in KC, but your is an amazing buy as any comic collector knows its value. Great Find.

Elveen + greg- Thank you, for participating in my contest. Like I said in my last post. That was way to fast. So, I'm going to do another one later tonight. Make sure you guys look for it in a few hours.

Thanks,
Wil

Vintage Stock should expand to CA!

wilblas · Post by **wilblas** » Fri Jul 10, 2009 6:10 pm

caxiotis- They do have some nice stuff at times for great prices. But most of the time they want over book for key issues. Great buy on the Predator Magnus TPB. You don't see that book around very often.

Thanks,
Wil

So what is the apporx. value of the spidey book?

wilblas · Post by **wilblas** » Fri Jul 10, 2009 6:27 pm

Elveen- I think it books for around $80.00-$125.00 in this condition.

Thanks,
Wil

Congrats.

Looks 9.2'ish depending on the cover edges. If they're ragged/scalloped, it'll be lower.

That is one sweet looking ASM! Nice pick up

wilblas · Post by **wilblas** » Fri Jul 10, 2009 10:10 pm

sckao- The cover on this book is nice. It looks a lot better in hand, then it does in the scans. I really think it's a solid 9.4.

tarheelmarine- Thank you.

Thanks,
Wil

I was going to say a quarter. I figured it must be something ridiculously low.

Got the Wolvie today. Thanks!

wilblas · Post by **wilblas** » Fri Jul 17, 2009 5:46 pm

Cool. Can you believe that some listed that as being in NM/MT++ condition. I paid $25.00 delivered for it because of the description. I was *SQUEE* when I received it. Well, I hope you like it. You can't beat the price you got it for.

Thanks,
Wil
