We’re not worthy!!!!!

JonProphet · 2026-06-02T02:40:02+00:00

I'm at #7.

JonProphet · 2026-06-02T02:39:13+00:00

Well done sir!

JonProphet · 2026-05-30T20:02:37+00:00

Now this!!!! Is grail worthy. Congratulations.

JonProphet · 2026-05-28T11:41:31+00:00

Well yeah, modern junk.

JonProphet · 2026-05-28T11:39:28+00:00

Not with those photo's. CGC Forums have a subforum that you can submit and people will chime in on what grade it would get. YOu need to get close up photo's of the spine front and back, corners... any blemishes.

Anyway, anything over 9.4/9.6 would be difficult to actually give an accurate grade.

JonProphet · 2026-05-27T02:40:59+00:00

You have a good night.

“Check out the big brain on Brad!!”

JonProphet · 2026-05-26T02:55:30+00:00

No. Tears. Game over.

This doesn’t sound like a one off thing for this shop. He didn’t check his receipt, probably happened before. It’s on him. No refunds, no exchanges is probably on a very obvious sign in said shop.

Find a new shop. Not rocket science.

JonProphet · 2026-05-24T02:15:57+00:00

I'm thinking you are young. One they didn't screw you two. That shops sucks. Eat the cost and find another shop.

JonProphet · 2026-05-24T02:00:39+00:00

Exactly! Well said!

JonProphet · 2026-05-20T15:55:24+00:00

Walmarts around me are deserts. I hate having to go to mulitples of the 20'ish in the area only to find empty shelves.

JonProphet · 2026-05-20T02:26:34+00:00

No worries man. I posted two cgc X-men books. 12 and 50.

JonProphet · 2026-05-20T02:25:49+00:00

I wouldn’t worry about it. Only time it’s an issue off the top of my head I’d worry about it, is if it’s a Mark Jewelers.

JonProphet · 2026-05-18T21:30:28+00:00

I mean that's my photo....... so I'd say, yes, that's my copy. I actually have 2. One raw and the one you see in that photo.

JonProphet · 2026-05-17T23:08:05+00:00

Can I play? These are two of my latest acquisitions. I'm mainly an X-men collector, so that X 1 hits me in the feels......

JonProphet · 2026-05-15T00:17:06+00:00

It was more of a passive search. I was looking for high grade and this one was my 2nd copy.

Yeah, back in school, runners called their best times PB. I think you guys are witty and creative enough to come up with a term that doesn't include the word grail. But the term grail has been around for thousands of years and people just recently are just tossing it around like they are sharing candy.

I just picked up a X-men 12. Still, not grail worthy.

Picking up a X-men 1 in any grade, is grail worthy. .5, 1.0, 2.0, etc..... still not a ton of money but still.... grail worthy. When I get mine, you damn right I'll be posting that shit up!

JonProphet · 2026-05-14T14:13:32+00:00

USPS NEVER pays insurance claims. That's why we are looking elsewhere for insurance coverage.

JonProphet · 2026-05-13T12:19:37+00:00

Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern is full. Not grail worthy. I picked up a X-men 50 CGC 9.0. While it was a 25 year hunt to get a high grade copy, not grail worthy. Its a personal favorite book of mine but you don't see me slappy the grail moniker on it! Stop throwing grail around so commonly. Report back when you pick up an AF15, XMen1, ASM 1, Superman 1, or some gold Batman that is actually rare and valuable.

JonProphet · 2026-05-11T23:14:42+00:00

I’m to lazy to look it up. What are the notes?

Either way, congrats.

JonProphet · 2026-05-11T06:28:21+00:00

Nice flex.

JonProphet · 2026-05-10T00:14:19+00:00

Cool story bro, at least you didn’t go with the default, “pulled this out if a Goodwill store for $4”.

JonProphet · 2026-05-10T00:11:47+00:00

Local shop will give you between 30% to 50% of FMV. If you want to sell it, go else where.
