This is a comic book unboxing video where I open up a grail i just traded for. In this video I will show you a trade where I sent $5,500 in comic books to The Geek Aficionado and he send me this grail. This was an awesome trade for both of us. Jimi is going for this series and I am trying to consolidate into another cornerstone level book for my foundational comic book collection. I really hope you enjoy this video and the content here.

Omg! Dr Doom! Other than the original X-Men run, that first appearance of Doom is a personal grail. I'm so jealous!

@leeniren3706 Год назад

I am very proud of what you were doing. The fact that you were treating something that you do not care about no matter what the value is to get something that you do. Care about is fantastic.

@TK_junction Год назад

Congratulations! Not on my grail list but can’t imagine the joy of having a personal grail in hand. Congratulations again!

@davidbooks.and.comics Год назад

Dr. Doom...one of the most awsome villains in comics!!

@jeffstanley6013 Год назад

A big part of my collection is first appearances of villains, so I personally would hang onto and treasure that book. 🙂 Congrats!

@ComicsWithBonics Год назад

Amazing trade Alex! As you know, I’ve transitioned from a run collector to a top 40 collector. I feel we are on similar paths and once books are on the trading block, they get traded or sold pretty quickly since I’ve already set my mind in the next goal. Thanks for the ongoing inspiration! 🙏🤙

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

You inspire me too brother.

@kevinjameson7817 Год назад

Awesome FF book. Can’t wait to see what it turns into.

@Dewfanatic Год назад

That's a lot of roster changes for one video! Glad you showed that off.

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

I know. You speak the truth. I was saying in another comment that once I flirt with getting rid of a book or a stack of books, they are basically dead to me. I had people say, don’t trade those, but I had already written them out of my collection by the time I had the thought of getting rid of them. I feel that I am transitioning from a foundational collector to a corner stone collector. Maybe I’ll explore that in a future video.

@Dewfanatic Год назад

Looking forward to it. There are obvious levels to the collecting game, and it seems you are reaching a new one.

@ComicHaulicsChannel Год назад

The comic boom was nuts lol. Lots of people made money, but many lost HARD.

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Speaking of hard. Have you heard they were able to recreate the vocal cords of Abraham Lincoln to simulate how he would sound.

@biggieshaq Год назад

Looks like afficianados congratulations

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Yep! But it’s already gone. Only had it for about 20 hours.

@cclouse14 Год назад

looking forward to see what grail you're acquiring. I'd take the golden age books over the FF5 personally, but I'm not a big FF fan.

@ComicCollectorGeek Год назад

FF5 peaked out at $10k. The books you traded range in price $300-600 each x12, so about $5k so a fair trade. Really hard to say but the Tara run is really cool and something I'm working on. However, Dr. Doom is possibly the best Marvel villain.

@DavidClark-vu3dw Год назад

Well, I'm eating lasagna right now watching this and what?! You're trading the FF#5?! I assume you've traded it along with some other of your books to get another book to be revealed later. I wish I had some garlic bread right now. 😃

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

First of all lasagna sounds incredible. Second thanks for watching! I actually am doing a 1-1 trade on this next deal. It’s not going to be everyone’s cup of tea though. I’m probably going to get a little grief for it too. I acknowledge that FF5 is a major heavy hitting blue chip key. It’s a grail to a lot of people for sure.

@veggieeats1160 Год назад

Very nice book

@coryduesterhaus7121 Год назад

Man I'd have held on to that one for awhile. Value may not get back up to 10k again for awhile, but with the FF movie coming out, you know Doom is going to be in it. That's going to send that book back up! Has me curious what you traded that for tho!

@Longshanks78 Год назад

Big congrats!

@Coffee_And_Comics Год назад

Nice pickup, even if it's for a brief moment. No idea what you're about to get, but I do like Doom. Love my villains, especially on the covers.

@raleighcomicbookcollector Год назад

Looking forward to seeing what you get in trade 😉

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Haha. Hmmm I wonder.

@brianwyde3829 Год назад

I’m excited to see the book you are ultimately trading to acquire - FF is not my favorite title - so it’s a safe bet I am going to like your acquisition better. I just bought Whiz comics #65 (4.5) ungraded where Captain Marvel beats up 2 bank robbers. True grails are out of my range.

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

That is excellent that you got that Whiz. Honestly, that’s how you do it. As means allow, grab books like that. They have appeal and aren’t the run of the mill fodder you see out there. Build up the collection with those. You might only be able to buy one a month or one every other month; but imagine the collection a year from now. You’ll have a nice stack of really cool books.

@GeekAficionado Год назад

Thanks for putting the offer out there Alex. So stoked for the books to get here to enjoy them. Thank you again for making this so easy.

@thomaspalmer6453 Год назад

That's a great book! However, I wouldn't consider it as a grail book. I would consider the Marvel grails to be AF #15, FF #1, Hulk #1, and maybe X-Men #1. FF #5, Spider-Man #1, Avengers #1, Tales of Suspense #39, and JIM #83 are all keys, but not grails. Still, you have a great book! Congrats!

@Vp-jt3vl Год назад

Wow congrats dude!

@coydogf23 Год назад

I was the $5,040 buyer on the FF5!!!!!!

@pauld_77 Год назад

Great book Alex, looking forward to seeing what you trade it for :) I’d love to trade with my collection but unsure how to go about it, especially with higher value books with people you may not know online . Do you have any advice on trading you could put in a video if possible ? Many thanks 👍

@joshuaalvey Год назад

Although the books you traded were awsome I think that's a great trade

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Thanks I agree. Anytime I can trade multiple books for one of similar value it’s a good day for me.

@joshuaalvey Год назад

@@AlextheComicHoarder yes sir

@zachhinkle7705 Год назад

I can't wait to see what you got, but I can't IMAGINE trading that book lol. But hey, it's called a personal collection for a reason. 😛

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Love your comment. It is so true. When people see what I’m getting they will probably think I am crazy. It’s not really something that is going to have broad appeal. There will be people that will hope this next book isn’t the stopping point.

@dansxmencomics Год назад

Fantastic book, interesting to see it turn into the next book! I love the idea of just offering up a grip of comics to field offers. I’d like to know more about how that all went down!

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Absolutely! Also, for me once I flirt with getting rid of books they basically become dead to me. I had a few people say, “don’t get rid of those.” At that point the thought had already crossed my mind and the books were outcasts in the collection. I’ve almost transitioned from foundational collecting to cornerstone collecting.

@dansxmencomics Год назад

@@AlextheComicHoarder I love it. You have some great mental strategies that have helped you churn your collection into the cream. Correct me if I’m wrong, you posted those books on IG with the price you felt they were worth (as a lot) and asked others to make offers with any big book around the same value? Or were you specific about the book (or kind of book you wanted)? I really wanna try this (at 1/5 the price scale). Thanks for the advice and motivation!

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

@@dansxmencomics yep. That’s pretty much how it went. It got a big collector, a dealer and Jimi’s bloom pumping. They were each trying to figure out how to make it work. It all about being realistic to what you have and how desirable that bait is to someone who has the 1-2 books you want. Is it worth it to them? are you making sure you’re honoring your investments and interests.

@dansxmencomics Год назад

@@AlextheComicHoarder sweet! Thanks, my man! Looking forward to seeing the other side of this trade.

@everettshelmidine9982 Год назад

Either way it’s a cool trade I don’t think you can go wrong with either

@CretanBull Год назад

I'd keep that!

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Yeah. It’s a sweet book. Definitely a major major blue chip key.

@CretanBull Год назад

@@AlextheComicHoarder Easily one of the most important Marvel comics ever! :)

@brute_nm Год назад

I've always wanted to do an NBA-style multi-team trade! Can't wait to see what you end up with 👍

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Haha. That is awesome. I love trading. Let me know if you want to get in on some of that action. I need more DC keys!!!

@jarredsmith9187 Год назад

Great book but I would rather have TMNT#1, X-Men#1, Amazing Fantasy#15 and Batman#1 those are my grails and I think a lot of other people's grails as well.

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Very nice choices. Imagine owning all of those at the same time. That’s basically all you’d need.

@hazeldan1216 Год назад

FF #5 is a pretty awesome book, so if you traded it for something else, I will assume you're getting something I would probably like more than the FF, too, lol. Especially if it's a book that's on your cornerstone keeper list. Can't wait to see it.

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

HazelDan. I hope you’re right. You two have always been very savvy collectors. Going after cornerstone level books. Also, I think the three of us have progressed from the blue chip hunting to the obscure rarities of the hobby. I said it in another comment that I think I’m transitioning from a foundational comic collector into a cornerstone collector. I need to explore more of what that actually looks like for me.

@hazeldan1216 Год назад

Agreed. Me and my wife focused on first tier Silver Age books 15 years ago and got them secured in our collection before getting the 2nd and 3rd tier books. We transitioned to Golden Age grails a couple of years ago. It gets much harder in this stage, for sure. As you well know, it's very difficult to get those without gutting the collection. We think you are doing the right thing. You can probably get another copy of FF 5 down the road if you really want it.

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

@@hazeldan1216 maybe we should do a live show. I always enjoy your content and the love show opinions you all have. You are always the voices of reason.

@hazeldan1216 Год назад

@AlextheComicHoarder Thanks, man. It's easy to be the voice of reason on that stream, lol. Love those guys. Sure, let's do a live video together. It sounds like fun. We've tried to send this a few times now, and our message keeps disappearing. I'm not sure what's going on. I hope they aren't all going through making us look crazy lol.

@FernandoGon814 Год назад

Alex congratulations you broke 10k and yes it’s a grail!

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Thank you so much. I feel like 10k is the max my channel will ever get and I’m blessed and honored to have achieved it. This community is the best.

@kendallkidd20 Год назад

My grail is Avengers #1

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

That is a killer killer book. Do you want me to coach you on your quest to getting that grail?

@whatsinthebox9981 Год назад

Hello all

@whatsinthebox9981 Год назад

So what did you do with the book?

@AlextheComicHoarder Год назад

Instantly traded it for another book. Will get that one later this week.
