Wish my LCS was half that size.
New subscriber here. Really enjoyed the tour and upload. Look forward to checking out new content. Let’s #growtogether and stay tuned.
You need to checkout Phil’s Comic Shop
3:05 Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man statue looks dope! Nice video tour btw. 👍👍
One of the many awesome full size statues there! 🙌🏽
Thanks for showcasing this LCS, it looks incredible
Any time! Definitely worth a trip to Tate's if you're ever in the area.
I’m the same way. I would go to the firt show, but thinking “I could get a better deal at the next show” and walk out with nothing. Don’t feel bad we all do that.
That is a phenomenal LCS! Also impressive soundtrack
Haha thanks man! Tate’s is bomb, and I always do my best to keep the tunes on point 😅
Hey Nando! Great pickup man, I like your style bidding during the super bowl. Awesome pickup and welcome back!
Thanks man! Definitely a tactic I'll be using more in future years 😅 Hope you've been good!
Just pushing through winter. please send the sun and heat lol@@NearMintNando
Over spray is super common on my amazing adventures books to for some reason.
Interesting! I guess there are certain books that you commonly see it on.
The Super Bowl is a great time to buy.
Making it a point to watch more auctions ending during the Super Bowl next year!
Ah i really want this one too! Dont see too many other ppl talking about it usually
Feels like a really underrated book! I've always loved this one.
Glad to see your drunk super bowl bid did not go wrong, nice pickup! I got my Tomb of Dracula 10 on a Christmas night ebay auction for a great price. Got to wonder what these sellers are thinking sometimes.
Lol they were probably drunk too! It's rough out there for eBay sellers who do auctions these days. Can't be mad about getting the better end of a deal though 😬
Great price
Totally! Lucked out with this one 🙏🏽
Sweet book ! Bidding during SB is a great strategy
Thanks! Wasn’t planned but definitely worked out 😅
One day I’ll get down to Megacon. As long as you’re happy that’s all that matters. New sub here.
Of course! We all have our own experiences, and they're not all going to be good or bad. Mine this year, thankfully, was good. Thanks for the sub!
Great haul sir, watching from the UK
Cheers man! Hope life is good in the UK!
You crushed it on the ASM 306. I paid $80 for mine less than a year ago and it came back a 9.8, which I'm not upset over. Yours is in bomb shape. Without holding it in my hands, it looks like a 9.8 "candidate" and 9.6 at a minimum from your video. Keep up the good content bud!
Thanks so much, Jerry! That one was definitely a nice find at that price. Normally I see it priced much higher, so I was all over it. Appreciate the support!
I'm looking at your cage! #2 but I have no idea what you want for it...
Megacon was trash stop hyping it up prices for books were insane, no one wanted to buy/trade, and it was crazy packed. So stop it.
Haha I feel you man. That’s how I felt when I went in 2022. This year was better for me because I only went the first two days, had the time and space to dig, and knew which vendors to skip over since they price their stuff high. What days did you go?
Nice pick up!
Thanks man!
Dr Doom covers are the best
They really are! So many great ones.
First time seeing the podcast, very cool. You got some very nice Gem's, great prices too. I live in Panama City Florida, the Panhandle. I gotta make it too Megacon!
Thanks so much, and awesome to have a new viewer! Welcome!
By chance was the X-Men 50 at Reece’s? CGC 8.5?
This was a raw copy at a different booth. The dealer was a bald guy from Maryland with a small corner booth. He’s in my video at 4:37.
@@NearMintNando Oh ok. I recognized you when you walked out of a booth. You walked off, I wanted to introduce myself but never saw you again. Maybe next time.
@@hialeahcomicbro8048 ahh damn definitely come say what’s up next time! I’m at most of the local south Florida shows too if you’re ever at any of them
I'd say you did quite well. And that's especially true with you getting books from some of my main series (ASM, Daredevil and X-Men). And I liked the footage from the show. Been waiting for other comic fans to drop their videos. Happy comic hunting!
Awesome man, great to hear you enjoyed the footage! It was a pretty massive show. Glad I made it the first two days and was able to get some videos before it got too crazy.
Welcome back Nando! That Doom cover is the best Doom cover hands down in my opinion. Great pickups and excited to see what else you’re up to this year. Cheers!
Thanks so much man! I feel like I’m moving up in the world as a Doom cover collector lol. More to come!
Good work
Thank you!
Great vid dude! Keep up the content.
Thanks man! Appreciate the support 🙏
Very nice content, and I’m diggin’ that Cage #2!
Wow great books !!
Wow, congrats on some major bumps! Your hard work definitely paid off. And being a creator here is a constant learning experience. Thanks for making us laugh and not taking yourself too seriously. Great video my friend!
Thanks my man! Wasn’t expecting such big bumps, so very pleasantly surprised there. Appreciate the continued support! 🙏🏽
@@NearMintNando yeah those were great. And of course man, you deserve it!
Wow, those grades are excellent. I built up a solid collection over the years, and made a Covid project of grading all of them in 2020-21. THEN I got a press and started cleaning, pressing, and re-grading them all this past year. Seems like, typically, they bump up 0.5-1.5 on average about a 1.0 bump. Rare and super fun to see those 2+ point improvements, and you really hit the jackpot with this submission! Very exciting
Thanks, Charles! I actually have a ton of books that I graded without cleaning, so I’m tempted to do what you’re doing now. Always a fun, but somewhat risky, game to play 😅
Hey its the Nandolorian with another cool video. Appreciate your content Nando. I love unboxing books when they come. Its Christmas every day when a package arrives.
Hahaha aka Nando Calrissian! Definitely feels like Christmas every time those CGC packages get delivered. Thanks for watching, Mark! 🙏🏽
Nice gooks dude and some good grades!
Love your videos and channel. I just started getting into this hobby myself and I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts and experience with these, I'm learning so much.
Really great to hear that, Drew! Thanks so much for the support. If I can offer any other advice just let me know 🤝🏽
Congrats on the submission those are some great books with some awesome bumps. I haven't made a regular submission since the beginning of the year as I started getting obsessed with the signature events but am putting together at least a ten modern book submission and am looking at making my first vintage submission.
Thanks man! Honestly the experience of submitting books to CGC feels like it’s really improved lately. Turnaround times for both tiers are really fast at the moment, and I’m really happy with the grades I’ve been pulling 🙏🏽
Super exciting to get grades higher than expected. I still like to guess conservatively because nothing is worse than getting less than expected.
Definitely been there many times! I felt a lot of that with my last few modern tier submissions, but my luck finally turned around 😅
👍💯
I love Alex Ross You're such a great artist it's so awesome to have so many of his very cool pieces especially on X-Men over the last year.
He is the man! Such a great artist 🙌🏽
Nice! 🔥
Some great books in some great grades. Congrats!
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Nice grades on some very old books. Congratulations! You don’t see those higher grades too often.
Thank you! I try to jump on books like these when I happen to find them at affordable prices.
Finally got sit down and watch this fire! Big fan of all the books you submitted, especially the FF. a 9.0 for that book is phenomenal! I like the cut backs to your original estimates as I watched that video but forgot. Big congrats on an awesome submission my friend!
Much appreciated my man! Super happy with all of these, especially the FF 51. Glad you enjoyed the video! 🤜🏽🤛🏽
did you press them or had them pressed by ccg? gREAT BOOKS
Thanks! I have a pressing guy I send my books to before submitting.
If part of what makes these the top ten and how much you paid and how much they are currently worth - you should consider presenting the yearly appreciation rates - the statistics are available, you just need to do the math.
That FF 39 cover is so cool. And that's a really high grade for such an old timer!
Love that cover! Such a gem.
Super nice books and really good grades dude!
Thank you! Really happy with the results on this one.
