Skyrocketing Graphic Novel Prices.

As some of you know I pay a great deal to market trends with regards to CGC graded books.

Recently there were very high grade (CGC 9.8) issues of Marvel Graphic Novels selling on E-bay. I was a little curious as to where the prices might settle since I use the info to gauge whether to submit some of my own books for slabbing in order to

take advantage if the prices are trending high.

Below is a list of actual prices realized, some of which seemed to even shock the pants off of yours truly.

#2 Elric The Dreaming City (3 bids) $109.00

#3 Dreadstar (3 bids) $265.00

#4 The New Mutants (12 bids) $536.88 (no surprise on this one).

#15 Raven Banner (3 bids) $134.77 (definite surprise)

#17 Revenge of the Living Monolith (2 bids) $158.05 Wow!

#18 She Hulk (6 bids) $290.00 (big surprise)

#23 Doctor Strange (4 bids) $179.77

#29 Hulk & The Thing (3 bids) $102.50 (thought this would go higher.

NN Avengers the Vault (3 bids) $109.49

NN Wolverine Bloody Choices (57 bids) $332.77 by far biggest surprise due to the number of bids placed on this issue.

Overall I think that this was a huge shot in the arm and motivation for anyone that collects Graphic Novels whether high or mid grade as prices will also rise for reader copies at some point or another.

Thanks for reading,
