Hey, good morning keep the videos coming. I look forward to these every Sunday just to see basically if there is going to be an up trend.. yes, comic books are still kind of flat. At least I kept some of my good books and I didn’t buy anything during Covid so I’m not really that pissed off.. I told you before I could have gotten $100,000 for my tales of suspense 39 8.5 if I sold it two years ago it’s only about $60-$70,000 right now where it should be. But there were sales $99,000 and $120,000 on Comic Link not that long ago.. keep your videos coming. They are awesome.. I wish I had that chamber of chills, but I don’t work anymore. It’s kind of hard for me to do that..Lee Elias and Graham Ingels of EC are probably your best horror artist

I told you I am basically just a New York Yankee baseball fan and I watch every single game or I am at Yankee Stadium. I have lots of tickets every year I could watch every game because I’m not in the restaurant business anymore. I gave up working I don’t really have any money but at least I have Comic Books just as good as money maybe better. I’m going to Trumbull Connecticut in a few hours over my brother-in-law’s house. He is having a Super Bowl party.

Wow wow looking at some of the sales. They are totally disgusting.. I got my tales of suspense 39 8.5 right before Covid. I got it for $5300 at the Jacob Javits Center in New York.. like I mentioned to everybody on KZbin if you were buying Comic Books during Covid, you probably are having a nervous break down. I didn’t buy anything during Covid.. if I sold this 8.5 during Covid there were two sales on Comic Link $120,000 and right after that $99,000 right now it’s in the $60-$70,000 range where it should be.😨😨😨

I always look forward to your Sunday videos. They are awesome.. it’s sad to see there are no green arrows on hardly any books and of course you and I know the reason because the big sales were during Covid everything is where it should be really. Yes it’s depressing if you need spending money and you have to sell something.. anyone that bought anything during Covid got screwed because you might never get your money back. I didn’t buy any comic books during Covid. I told you I bought everything relatively cheap.. remember I was in the restaurant business I don’t work anymore.

Je suis d'accord avec vous. C'est vrai que qu'il s'agit d'un KO de très mauvaise qualité et les différentes sont flagrantes. Il faudrait en effet un comparatif avec d'autre KO. Et peut-être aussi avec les rééditions officiels des années 2000, car quand on cherche de l'original ces rééditions sont pour moi une véritable pollution. Il aurait été bon d'avoir un "timbre" Takaka noté 2002 et non pas 82-84 par exemple. Ceci dit ces vidéos ou documentations de comparaison sont tellement rares qu'il faut remercier vivement Toys and Games pour ce travail! Et merci encore à lui d'avoir répondu à ma suggestion de réaliser ce comparatif👍!

Hey, I always love watching your Sunday videos. They are awesome. I just got home from a long long lunch with my friend Norwalk Connecticut.. it’s about 7 PM. Anyway just a few years ago fantastic four 1 3.5 sold on eBay for only 5000. The only people that are really losing money or anybody that bought comic books during Covid because everything was through the roof. Yes everything should be down to normal now hopefully they will start going up.. I told you before I still have my amazing fantasy 15. I know you have a copy.. no Marvel chipping I told you I only paid $4000 6.0.. it looks much better. It was graded 20 years ago so I also told you I was offered $100,000 and I refused I’m not selling it.. anyway, I hope all is well. Keep doing what you’re doing. This is awesome.

Good morning I love your Sunday videos. I look forward to those every week.. basically with the information that you collect if we all sold during Covid, we would be millionaires. If you bought any comic books during Covid, you are friggin screwed because you are never going to get your money back. Just look at two of my books if I sold those during Covid.. tales of suspense 39 8.5 I bought that in New York City for Covid for $5300. And two copies on Comic Link sold for $120,000 and $99,000.. amazing Spider-Man 1 6.5 I only paid $4200 before Covid and during Covid you could have gotten $30,000 plus of course that has come down. The Iron Man is back to where it should be. Everything is back to where it should be. It’s between $60-$70,000.. so your videos just proves during Covid. Everything was way above where it should be..

Good morning I love watching your weekly Sunday videos. It’s just depressing because most of the books have been going down since the end of Covid.. if you bought your books during Covid, you of course paid much too much because when you try to resell the book, you probably have to wait a long long time to get your money back. Let’s take one of my samples.. I bought my tales of suspense 39, 8.5 before Covid for $5300 at the New York comic con about two 2 1/2 years ago that book sold on Comic Link for $120,000 and the next sale was $99,000.. well I am single my last girlfriend made movies magazine covers. She passed away if I just sold one of my great books during Covid I would have so much money right now this book is where it should be $60,000 plus.

I told you many times I was offered $100,000 at the New York comic con for my amazing fantasy 15 6.0 no trimming looks much better than the grade it’s only valued at $75,000.
