I don't know where you get your supplies from, but I used to use esupply.com, but recently tried http://www.shippingsupply.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; for the first time. They were a bit cheaper on boxes and pads with shipping. Not sure on the bubble mailers as I'm moving away from them.

Me, too.

I don't sell anything - except a few duplicates that I fell onto. The only reason MY LCS can do this is the guy hs restricted himself to Daredevil. All Daredevil. Nothing else. He reads nearly everything, but sells everything except his DD set.

He actually just put out his 'other' set of DD for sale. I perused - gently - and wondered what his keeper copies looked like. His sale issues were amazing.

comics right now are my smallest sales area dvds movies and seasons are my winners but comics have fantastic mark up
the supply place you put up is close to the same price but you have to pay for shipping i get free shipping
my own store in 12 - 24 months hopefully

Just pre-ordered Hitman volume 7 off of Amazon. Can't wait to re-read this series.

[hulk181man]

2nd Black Widow....

[400yrs]

Beautiful!

Do you have a ToS 57? That book is kind of blowing up. I have a lower mid grade copy, but I can't find anything better in my area.

I noticed that too -- I have one but it's only VG range. ToS 52 is moving as well. Too bad Hank Pym and Wasp aren't in the upcoming movie - would've pushed TTA 27, 35 & 44.

Btw, lonestar graded the above book a G so there must be hidden/back cover damage - haven't received it yet. But for $16 it displays well and fills a collection hole.

Yeah, it definitely displays well.

I'd be interested to know what you think when it's in hand. Hopefully they dropped it down because of the bottom staples or something and there's nothing wrong with the back.

It wouldn't surprise me if there were surface issues looking at the right edge and bottom right corner.

Still, the FC easily looks like a solid 7.0 from that scan.

I think this one was surprisingly good. I picked up three copies, I hope it is a bit of a sleeper.
