A fun watch
I have a raw copy of this, in like a 1.5!
Sharp copy. Thought it was cover less until I watched Never knew the book/movie relationship.
What a great lot & deal! 🤩
Yes it was!
Love this!!!
Thank you!
Overall, I think you did OK. One has to expect sellers trying to talk their books. The X-Men 86 you got is a reprint just an FYI.
Hey Chris, how are you? It’s Lee from Elizabeth with a new name for my KZread handle. I want to say that the feeling I have is that this seller knew that that book was in such bad condition, as well as the others. And that is why he did not want them taken out of the bag. He also said make sure you know what you were getting. It makes me believe that he knew very well what would happen and was trying to unload the books on someone who otherwise would not have looked the way you did. You did exactly what any smart, buyer should do, you looked at the items before you bought them. Smart on your part, bad on his part.
After making the deal, I would have went ahead and bought the books for the seven fifty. You agreed to the deal without taking them out of the bags, so I think that put it on you. But I would have bought them anyway. I think there was 3 or 4 books in there. That you could have got your money back on. I'll tell you.I bought a fantastic four number 1, one time. It was in worse condition than any of those. it had tape on the cover. Somebody tried to color it. I mean, it was the worst looking copy of a comic book I've ever seen. It actually looked like it had been laying in the street, and was rained on, and then run over by multiple vehicles . I sent it into CGC. they said it was the lowest grade they had never given on that book. So I put it on ebay and auctioned it off, and I gave explicit details of the condition even though c g c had already graded it, and stated its actual condition. It ended up selling for $750. I was blown away I didn't think anybody would buy it. Quite a few people placed bids on it. I got good feedback on it and everybody was happy. The key was just putting it out there and being truthful. You'd be surprised at what somebody would buy Just to1 own something that they couldn't afford otherwise. I really enjoyed the book while I had it, but I was glad to sell it.And the person who got it was glad to own it.
Those comic books with the diamonds are Whitman reprints. They do hold some value, but not nearly as much as the original believe it or not. They were printed not that long after the originals today I think they would be more looked at as 2nd prints.
Very fun lots! Some of those will easily pay off! Thanks for sharing!
Very cool! I didn’t know about these figures! Phantom of the Opera was 1925. Lon Chaney, classic! I got to see it in a small theater when I was a kid. Great video! My algorithm must’ve kicked you off my list, finally found you again, cheers!
If you have conservation skills, that might be a good find. And it is a good thing if all of the fragments are contained in the bag because they can be rejoined. So the seller did right by including the pieces and even leaving the folded brittle pages alone for a skilled person to manipulate. But they are wrong for trying to hide the flaw and blame it on you when it is revealed. My 2 cents worth!
Dad always have some fun comics! I am also a fan of dollar bins and cheap lots. 👍
Always let the seller remove it from the bag...this way if something happens it's their fault/responsibility.
You can see how tight them books are in side the bags. Almost looks like shrink wrap they are in there so tight. Honestly im surprised you even made an offer. The only way to get them out would be to open the bag with a razor.
I have never been a hard core comic collector. But when my family would go vocation I'd by the odd comic book. One time I was at a comic book store I picked up a comic just to look at it. The owner told me , unless you're going to buy something get out of my store.
Don't be a drama Q. You have the exp use it. I wasn't there but by the looks of it all those books were in super poor condition. You didn't buy, he didn't sell, move on. Thumbs up like the story 😁👍
In slowmo you can see that edge separating as you pull the comic out. So either 1) it was already broken off in the bag, or 2) it went in just barely hanging on but that bag is way too small and tight, and the pressure of pulling it out was the last straw and made it separate fully. Either way, it's not your fault. If it was #2, then whoever put that book in there really fucked it up because you need to handle brittle and damaged comics like that very carefully and put them in a bag that's specious enough... certainly not a modern comic bag which will absolutely be way too tight and WILL cause damage as you put the book in and take it out. I've made the mistake myself of putting books in bags that are too tight. To take them out I just ended up cutting the bag rather than putting the force necessary on the books to remove them.
Thanks for the insight on this one!
he was clearly trying to sell low grade damaged books. As soon as you took the Iron Man 1 out of the bag and the piece falls out I no longer want to deal with the guy. I say good bye. Unfortunately he will just wait for the sucker.
Always have the seller take out and put back into the bag and board.
Yes!
4:57 "it was too tight to get them into the bags": Sounds like angryseller put the comics into bags that were too small. (silver age comics into current-size bags?)
Very possible!
Love that SRV poster man!!
Thank you!
Fantastic example of the ‘89 Toy Biz Joker, congrats
Indeed it is!
The Joker or should I say The 1989 Joker Action figure from Toy Biz was outstanding, Also Batman was one of my second action figures from Toy Biz, Also Batman is also one of my best and favorite Action Figure Toy line from Toy Biz.🙂💪💚🏋️🦸🇺🇲
Thank you Steven
Batman was one of my first action figures!
Sweet!
Good to see you back on the hunt! Some nice books in the box - definitely worth the 33 cents per issue I would say.
Haha Thank you!
that corner was 29:06 obviously detached before it came out of the bag, being held in place only by the creased pages. It's likely that the only reason he left the corner pages folded up was that he tried to straighten those corners after he bought it, and that's when he realized that it was detached. Also, with that big missing piece of the upper right hand corner, it didn't start off as very valuable
As a collector I'm simply thrilled to handle books surviving as long as they have hook me up with the seller I'll grab all he got
Bro u still got a play as a collector I'll give u $800 right now cash all those u bought homie
how much did you originally pay for it?
This was actually a gift from Santa many years ago lol! But i think Santa paid $350 for it
I had a different one. Remco Energized Spiderman. You would probably like this.
Is that the one with the helicopter?
@@CGL_Collectibles Yes. Helicopter was a separate toy. www.plaidstallions.com/remco/remco781.html Green Goblin too 😂 www.plaidstallions.com/remco/remco782.html
Sweet!! I like it better than the regular ones
Glad you like it!
So cool!!! 🤩🤩
Thanks!
Yes! This just brought back a lot of memories for me. I was born in ‘72 so I remember having and playing with those guys as a kids. Forgot all about them , I’ll have to hunt a few down for myself now!
They’re tough to find in the wild, but when you do find them it’s a thrill!
You made a fantastic deal on the Megos!! The Remco Phantom of the Opera is insanely cool.
The Remco Universal Monsters are awesome!!
I think I owned those superman movie cards at some point in time. 😐
Did you have the whole set?
@@CGL_Collectibles Unfortunately, no. I also had some (many, I believe) of Star Wars/Empire Strikes Back/ROTJ movie cards at some point in time. Gone as well. Ugh.😥 Still have Garbage Pail Kids cards.
Hi Chris, even though you're Asleep Great video about I Got A Collection Of Mego Pocket Heroes!!! Vintage Action Figures!!! Keep them coming, Also your latest video was outstanding, Also Very Cool I too got a soft spot for all things MEGO, Also The Vintage Mego Action Figures are still my best and most favorite Classic Vintage Toyline of all time, Also thank you for sharing Chris keep up the good work stay safe out there in New Jersey and have a goodnight.🙂🟢🦸💪🇺🇲🎇😃👊💚🎆12:34 am.
Thank you Steven!
Incredibly brittle pages. Books like that are going to completely fall apart with much handling.
For sure!
If it helps. That army soldier @ 1:50 is Mattel's Heroes in Action(1974/1975). I use to have a set plus vehicles as a kid.
That very much helps! Thank you!
Yeah I think you should have had him take it out. It may have been barely hanging on and the folded edges applying extra pressure most likely did the job. Not your fault. Sounds like he had other things going on or maybe he would have done it with you. I asked a seller if they could open a Golden Age book I was wanting to buy for a bit of money. Glad I did because inside was a completely different book.
Definitely! Thank you for taking the time to share this comment.
Cool lot, I used to have a Batman figure that looked kinda like that but it had a rubber head and cape with a ball joint that you could pop off. Does it sound familiar I think it was late 70s early 80s?
Oooo… I love vintage Batman figures, but I don’t think I’m familiar with the one you’re describing.
Very Cool, I got a soft spot for all things MEGO
Yeah, me too!
You are exactly right. Having the seller handle the raw books is the right move. Enjoyed the video.
Thank you!
Excellent!! Dark Magician is a great character. Congratulations
He’s one of my favorites!
Shit my bad I thought it was from Pokemon
First of all you are completely in the right, that iron man was rubbish, but I'm curious so was the Amazing fantasy 15 at 12:42 coverless a reprint? It looked the right age
Good eye. I noticed that too.
Yes, I believe that was a Marvel Tales #1
wow, great video. thanks so much
great content. ty
Thank you for sharing, keep doing what you do!!!
That’s fantastic, thanks for sharing
