Good luck Well, this sale turned into the biggest waste of time for me in 2018 - so it's got that going for it. I called the company running the sale and the guy I spoke with said that a sign-up sheet will be at the house starting at 6 p.m. the night before. Great! I drive the 35 minutes each way and sign up - number 5 on the list!
Drive back again this morning, get to the sale 5 minutes before scheduled opening, only to find out that they pre-sold the comics! All of them!
What a terrible way to run a business.
Absolutely!!!!

Nice returns on some raw comics I bought at a tag sale over the summer -
Omega Men 3 - CGC 9.8 with name in marker on first page (Keith Giffen), blue label not green Punisher Limited Series 1 - CGC 9.8 (x2 both newsstands as well!) Punisher Limited Series 2 - CGC 9.8
One more book from this batch is still in the pipeline on a different tier - Special Marvel Edition 15
And one that I bought at a different tag sale over the summer
Uncanny X-Men 266 - CGC 9.4 (which was better than I had hoped as it looked 9.0-9.2 to me)
Scores like these keep me looking!

That was a rough year here. Me too. Lost my dad unexpectedly and had surgery on my spine, not unexpectedly. Sucked a whole lot all things considered and I was happy to turn the page to 2017.
