This is just a thread to show my elation about the events that transpired for me on Saturday. So, Invincible is my favorite series, easily. I have both compendiums, TPB 18, plus issues 100-onward. The one comic I've always wanted for my collection is an Invincible #1 but it is very difficult to find and it is usually at least $200, more like $300+ for a NM copy. I found one on eBay that I was trying to bid on, it was a CGC 9.8 for $330. I had some comics I wanted to sell (around 200 comics) to try and get the money but I knew I wouldn't be able to make enough for it. I went to a local LCS to sell them to add to my Invincible 1 fund and she asked me how much I wanted. I said I was trying to get an Invincible 1 and I was hoping for around $300... which I knew my comics weren't worth. She looked through them and said that there wasn't $300 in there but she looked at me and said, "did you say Invincible #1?" My eyes got huge as she walked behind the counter and pulled out an Invincible #1, signed by Robert Kirkman. It isn't CGC so the signature isn't certified but after checking ebay, it fits his other signatures that are certified. It's probably around a 9.0 in quality which is very good for a #1. After trading my comics, I only paid $25. I got a 9.0, signed copy of an Invincible #1 for $125!!!! (It is a true #1, not the stupid Larry's Limited crap, in case you were wondering). I had a stupid grin on my face all Saturday and I still can't believe I got it for that incredible price. I am going to get it graded as soon as I can but it is sitting right now so I can see it every time I go into my room.
