Anybody notice the description on the second Magnus? "Bondage Cover"?!? Why would CGC point this out?

Strange.

I think I see that mostly with GA and SA books.

Tell me about it. Not sure why they'd feel the need unless some noob working for them had no clue.

Yeah i think they screwed up...it was really meant to say " Raccoon Cover".

Plus, they misspelled the cover artist. It should be "Bo Blayton". Dunces!

Valiant is so good it deserves to have a notation like that!! When was the last time you saw a modern age comic with a notation like that. And that is why we collect valiants.

A couple of people just picked up a slabbed Deathmate prologue Gold 9.4 for $2.54 and Deathmate Prologue CGC 9.6 for $6.50

Cost to slab them was $15.00 each!

Wow. Yeah. I have no idea who some of those bidders are. Some set massive snipes that outbid even Worldsbestcomics.

As alway, all winners get freebies!

Congrats to all the winners.

I know who they are. A few of them anyway. And I will say that if they wanted the book they were going to get the book.

Thanks for laying off the VM 2 Rico! That finishes my set! You are going to beat me if you get the registry problem straightened out, though!

The prices those Vintage Magnus books went for make me glad I ponied up the money for that 1-4 CGC set I just bought.

CKB...

No problemo.... you have helped me out WAY more than that.

I may have to call cgc because they still haven't fixed it yet... and I have a few others they have never fixed as well.

Congrats on 100%....

Where in the WORLD did you find an entire set of those slabbed?

Also... what grades were they in?

I won them off E-bay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... &rd=1&rd=1

1 - 9.8
2 - 9.6
3 - 9.6
4 - 9.8

I figured (at the time) that $62.50 a book was crazy, but I think they would have gone higher than that if sold individually. ~Pete

Yeah.. I was watching that auction actually. It's been up for a while.

My #4 9.8 went for $105 and my #2 9.6 went for $59... so about $164 for 2. If the other two went for the same amount, it'd be $328... so yeah, your set was probably cheaper.

Nice find Zero

Lucky I didn't see that, how I missed it I'll never know.

I'd been watching that too.

I was wondering which one of you guys was going to get it.
