Fella's, it's fine. I suggest we just wait until the Heritage auction and see what happens. I don't know if anybody noticed, but I did make the caveat that they would have have to spend a pretty penny on CGC grading to get to the number I threw out there.

I'm also going on the assumption that Heritage somewhat knows what it is doing in even accepting this collection. Selling off a huge magazine collection like this is extremely labor intensive, and they have to justify any consignment fee/buyers premium they get, with the work they put into it.

I'll be curious how they offer it out. Whether it's as one complete run, which is easier for them but will in no way get anywhere near the figure I mentioned......or will they break it up, use CGC for a couple hundred issues at least (I imagine they would have some sort of a sweetheart deal a normal collector wouldn't have access to) and break up into singles and raw higher grade 50 to 100 piece groups.
