WTB: Albedo 2 (raw or graded)

Hi fellow UY Fans,

I'm looking to buy a raw copy of Albedo 2 (Usagi's First Appearance). I'd also be interested in trading for a high-grade CGC copy. If you have a 9.6 or 9.8, I could do a grail for grail trade.

Thank you for looking!

Good luck on finding a raw copy. I've been searching for years at shows and comic shops and it seems that everybody slabs them and then places a premium on it.

Yeah...I'd never expect to find one at a convention or shop. That's why I'm hoping I have better luck within a group of collectors.

Have you seen the high-priced copies eBay, right now? Wish I had access to GPA, see what the actually going rate is.

My Albedo 2 is not slabbed, I've never slabbed a comic. But yeah, unslabbed copies don't turn up very often, but I have seen them on eBay.

Just a heads up. There's one on eBay (raw) now that is going for about $750. A couple more days till closing. Good luck.

Congrats! I wish the CBCS 9.6 on eBay wasn't signed. Not having the signature witnessed makes it difficult to even consider. That's why I want a raw copy.

Albedo 2 - CBCS 9.6
