I could watch this over and over!!! OMG 😆🤣😂 Epic grail and such a great story now that it is in your hands. Congrats on that! And the new cam looks great!!! 💪🏼💯🔥
Like you I got it at the peak so it hurts seeing values go down. Luckily I got a pressable copy and got a small grade bump 3.0 to 3.5. Also it's a SS Stan Lee signature which makes this copy stand out. I have no idea how long I will keep the book. It's my personal grail. I have sold almost all of my graded books in the last 10 months but this is a keeper for the time being. It was my ultimate goal. I don't know if I will buy big books anymore, I think the money will be used for other things in my life. I will continue being a fan of the comics and movies but posters will do for my wall decoration. I will have some graded books but collect for the art and not the big investment books. Great video btw !
BIG CONGRATS on your new book! Nice to see another fellow Minnesota collector on youtube, you and Deerunk comics are only other two im aware of. Have a great day
I regret ever being in position to get rid of a raw!! Maybe 5.5 I didn't know how that goes it was beautiful in my eyes but it presented well it was a four on its worst day
Huge congrats my friend. It’s a stunning book, no matter the grade. I purchased a 2.0 about a month ago, totally agree with all your tips, good luck getting a deal on this book 😂
Just joined and just started collecting graded comics, been collecting other stuff for years, especially funko pops, hense the name 🤩🤩🤩 fantastic comic 🤩🤩
AF #15 is the best comic you can get for many many reasons one of which being when it comes to long term investment this is the #1 comic for that.It is also the #1 Marvel comic and maybe even the #1 comic there is it for sure is the most talked about.With that really BIG sale of that high grade AF #15 it really helped out even the low grade ones as it brought even more attention to this AMAZING book.Great pick up buddy congrats on having the best comic in the world.Hope all is well your way take care and excelsior.
Yes, the big sale helped this one. I'm sure it's gone up. So, I'm just glad I got it when I did. It's a big book and obviously it fun to have. But it really represents all of the hard work (from my entire life) to be able to get it. Thanks for watching. I appreciate the support.
your being nice but thats pretty bad that they sent it to the wrong person // i had a problem with Hero restoration where they sent my x-men 1 to the wrong address and tried to blame it on cgc // never had any address problems with cgc // i was so on the case that i was able to redirect it at fed ex in my town in Canada ...good thing i wasnt passive about the transaction
@@SleepynComics yes but only because i was watching the transaction like a hawk and called fed ex and got them to hold it when it arrived ...i had them press a 2.5 up to a 3.0 blue
Awesome video. I used to buy from elite too. I returned a book to a sneaky seller on Instagram. I assume he lied about it to them and they blocked me. Didn't even ask my side. Ali is a great guy. 😃
Great video and advice mate. Thats crazy that a FF1 showed up instead 🤯 I dont see myself ever getting involved with these big boy books unless I win the lottery 😂
Nice video and great comic book. I have a few old ones. But a ASM 1966 #34 signed by Stan Lee 1.8 cgc ss, but still that's my personal grail. I could never afford that one any time soon
Thank you. Yes, it definitely gives you a sense of accomplishment. I’ll probably try to grab some other Silver grails, I doubt I’ll upgrade. But guess you never know.
I picked it because of the presentation. I saw multiple 2.0 and 2.5s that had large chunks of the cover missing. In the .5 and 1.0 you had even half of the cover missing. This one was best looking and I feel like CBCS is catching up to CGC. I need to get a new CBCS case.
This guy really thinks Amazing Fantasy #15 from 1962 is a RELATIVELY RARE COMIC ?? Relative to a new comic maybe but the fact is that there are MANY THOUSANDS of copies of Amazing Fantasy #15 in existence. Most are in the hands of collectors and investors and many are still in the hands of the people who bought them off the newsstand in 1962 when they were kids. It's actually VERY common, like all comics published after 1960 or so. VERY expensive, but very common ( compared to golden age comics ).
Great 👌 vidd .. great comic I really sniffed the panties of a amazing spider man 1 ...got bait n switched by slime ball dealer..but ya it's Easy man to be outwitted especially when we got love and heart behind purchase and some only have greed!!$$$
Ha. "Sniffed" that made me lol. Sorry to hear it was a bad deal. I think I was on the verge of some bad ones too. I can't say I got lucky, but I was definitely pretty cautious. I hope you get one. You can always DM me over on Instagram. I'd be happy to help out with anything.
@@SleepynComics well look I was meeting this sleeve in the drugstore parking lot where I got spawn one 497 Batman and everyone classic from 89 on up and I'll spending thousands with this guy and I wasn't nitpicking on nothing I wasn't been in over and taken it but I was paying damn near top of the mark they're supposed to be a 181 and I don't need to say no more I know you know what that is and a Spider-Man one I mean I had them in hand but he had to send them in to be graded we had predetermined price with the acknowledgment that at the grade came back exceptionally higher I'd have to pay more all the sudden by the way this is about a year and a half ago all of a sudden the market just started blowing up the return times on gradients were a lot longer if you remember than they were supposed to be next thing I know I'm buying all kinds of other stuff because I wanted it but thinking we had this other deal done he sold them for record prices never even gave me a chance to match nothing just sold them underneath me

Thx! Yeah, so crazy to get this book.
I’ve never bought a slabbed comic. It’s great hearing your perspective on the buying process.

That's the grab of a lifetime, congrat's on the book!
Thank you. I agree
BIG CONGRATS on your new book! Nice to see another fellow Minnesota collector on youtube, you and Deerunk comics are only other two im aware of. Have a great day
Thanks man. I appreciate the support. Great to meet other MN collectors.
Congrats on acquiring your grail! Beautiful book! FF 1 would be a huge get as well. Its really the book that started it all.
Thank you. Yes, it was huge get. FF1 is on the list, although FF5 is one I would probably get before it.
I regret ever being in position to get rid of a raw!! Maybe 5.5 I didn't know how that goes it was beautiful in my eyes but it presented well it was a four on its worst day

Amazing book! Thanks for the tips. Congrats on the grail!
Thank you. So happy to add it to my collection.
Thanks for sharing. I am not sure I will put that kind of money on a book.
Happy that you got the AF15 finally.
Awesome intro haha
Congratulations and welcome to the Amazing Fantasy 15 club. I got my CGC 1.5 in 2009 (my second slab).
Wow, in 2009. What a great investment. I bet the last couple years have made you smile.
Glad I found your channel..it's good!
Nice hat Go Twins!
Great information thanks for sharing! The face and feeling of the dude who opened up your AF15 OMG! 😂

Thank you! Yes, I’m always trying to learn. Mostly from my mistakes, lol.

That is amazing. Incredible pick ip
Thank you!
Can't believe this kind of mistake happened with such expensive books!! 😲
Dude! Epic! I was honestly waiting for the video to break like Spineticks did Saturday.
Ha! I hope I didn’t break anything. Spine Ticks is awesome, I was humbled to be invited on.
Great tips. This was a valuable video.
your being nice but thats pretty bad that they sent it to the wrong person // i had a problem with Hero restoration where they sent my x-men 1 to the wrong address and tried to blame it on cgc // never had any address problems with cgc // i was so on the case that i was able to redirect it at fed ex in my town in Canada ...good thing i wasnt passive about the transaction
Wow, that’s sounds stressful. You got the book?
@@SleepynComics yes but only because i was watching the transaction like a hawk and called fed ex and got them to hold it when it arrived ...i had them press a 2.5 up to a 3.0 blue
Congrats! That's my grail as well which I hope to own one day!
Thank you. Yes, I’m super pumped to add it to my collection.
Awesome video. I used to buy from elite too. I returned a book to a sneaky seller on Instagram. I assume he lied about it to them and they blocked me. Didn't even ask my side. Ali is a great guy. 😃
What's next potential big grails?
Just found your channel. Immediate sub. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Thank you. I hope to continue to bring interesting/fun content. I appreciate the support.
Great video and advice mate. Thats crazy that a FF1 showed up instead 🤯 I dont see myself ever getting involved with these big boy books unless I win the lottery 😂
Yes, it was a shocker. Fun to get this grail, thx for the support.
Hella goals congrats
Thank you !
I’ll never forget when you got this
That is a grail of mine. Maybe 2023 or or 2024. I think I may trade some comics in plus cash if I do. What do you think?
I’m so glad a got one. It’s an incredible piece of comic history
WOW an AF 15 that is so cool
Congrats!
Thank you. I appreciate the support. It's a big one.
Nice video and great comic book. I have a few old ones. But a ASM 1966 #34 signed by Stan Lee 1.8 cgc ss, but still that's my personal grail. I could never afford that one any time soon
Thank you. Any early SpiderMan signed by Stan is incredible. Wow, that sounds like a keeper.
@@SleepynComics the video is on my youtube. its was the best one I have got so far. saving it for my kids (5 son, 3 daughter)
I just watched it. Very Nice! Good placement on the sig too.
@@SleepynComics thank you sir. I hope one day I can get more
You got the NFT version?
Yes, physical and NFT versions. Thanks
How did the price you pay for AF15 hold up a year later? Might make a good video.
Great idea. It definitely dropped. If I had to guess it’s probably down about 50%
A restored 9.4 came up on ebay the other week. Madness money.
Yes, the prices can get seriously crazy. That’s why I had to start at the bottom. It got too steep for me.
Incredible!!!
Thanks man!
What an awesome comic to own! Doesn't get better than that! Well, unless you eventually get a higher grade.
Thank you. Yes, it definitely gives you a sense of accomplishment. I’ll probably try to grab some other Silver grails, I doubt I’ll upgrade. But guess you never know.
Why a CBCS copy? I'm curious
I picked it because of the presentation. I saw multiple 2.0 and 2.5s that had large chunks of the cover missing. In the .5 and 1.0 you had even half of the cover missing. This one was best looking and I feel like CBCS is catching up to CGC. I need to get a new CBCS case.
Is there any comic on VeVe of the same value with selling my Todd Mac for?
Not sure. Probably Marvel Comics 1
So how has your value gone up for the AF15?
It’s gone up. Not sure, maybe 50%
@@SleepynComics I bought a 2.0 and 5.0 restored but I think i want to eventually trade them for one higher grade AF15.
@@toasty-toast Wow! That’s awesome.
Frame? I will never put that comic in a wall, very risky to lights, humidity from the wall and more. Stored in a cardboard box in a dark room!
Beautiful book my dream one day
Thx man. I appreciate the support.
Congrats on owing the greatest silver age book 👍
Thank you. Yes, I must agree. I was pumped to add it to my collection.
Wow, congrats.
Thank you. I was excited to add it to my collection, fun to share.

I have that comic. Just got it today but I’m looking to sell it. Hit me up if you’re looking to buy.
the"market"is saturated w/"peons"that try to buy one at a lower price&send it to"you"at a higher price,hence stall...

My town for twenty years has zero lcbs!!!💩💩🤔🤔
Oh man. That sounds painful. Yes, sadly there are some shady people. I wish you luck.
LOL WHY WOULD YOU RECOMMEND A BUSINESS THAT FUCKS UP A HUGEEE COMIC EXCHANGE LIKE THAT?
I agree. It was very unpleasant. But they really helped out and it wasn’t EliteComic11 fault. It turned out ok, but it was painful.
remove the background music
I agree. I used it for a couple vids and took it out.
Congrats!
