The guy sold it to me for 12 quid, not knowing how much it's REALLY worth, I've checked it out and it isn't a re-printing, it is an original.
That reminds me of the news story about that guy who got an original Declaration of Independance for a few bucks.

How the blazes could he have sold it for £12?! Such a rare and popular issue would be worth much more! I've never read it, let alone seen it anywhere. Ben, I hope you preserve that issue, it's priceless.

Although I do have a rare Shadowcat bust on my shelf, one of only 2500 in existance.
