cool

We bid mid 70s estimating it was a low to mid 80s book Closed at 81222 I believe

this book was basically a 1.0/1.5 with covers taped back to book...it went for about what was expected for the "book" (thumbs u

mj at his worse better than me at my best

It's funny but we were joking about that sat night.... Haven't seen gators look this bad in 20 yrs it seems Given that my last "stellar" game was 9 years ago and I was in my late 30s just felt good to have a game like that closing in on 50 yrs old

Early centaur could be considered down right strong in demand these days, as evidenced by several recent auctions.

Holy Smokes. How many 3s? 5/7 on 3's and 15/17 on 2s....was just one of those games... my best game ever was 2006...17/20 on 3's for 51 pts... 15/17 on 2s. Wow - that is an incredible percentage for that many shots. So, were the vast majority of your shots pull up jumpers or post up? of course he was playing against 8 year olds..... We lost 116-80. Played the "best" and undefeated team (several former college players). Just had one of those games Sounds like you might need to do some serious recruiting before next season. We usually win (last week we won 76-42). Sometimes you are distant second and nothing you can do

Springfield. Maggie's still a baby bc it's an animated TV show

Ok. For all you old guys like me. Dropped 45 PTs sat night in next to final rec league bball game 2nd most points I've ever scored in any game!

My personal copy is a lowly 8.0. But I believe I have enough copies to get us to 20

guess my cgc 4.0 needs to be repriced

Fantastic! Never owned one of those, but always wanted to. i had the lost valley copies years ago. Only a 1.5 I believe but cool book

Definitely a colorful book

I did manage to buy 13 copies so far this year...but need MORE!

What's driving up the price? I happily got my 8.5 just before the spike. Demand for the book does not slow. A good example of this is our own Gator reported selling 100 copies of the book in 2014. While it is a very common book it is very liquid and sells. Why does the price go up? You bought an 8.5 at for arguement's sake lets say you purchased it for 1600.00. Do you want to sell it for that? No. You will sell it for a profit and you can get it. Sellers wanting to make money on the book are getting it year after year. only 96 copies... so close...going for 100 in 2015!

I will bring some spare centaurs

probably 4k is approx FMv

nit if we are lucky

what should I bring?

Only 5c... The doctor is in

These days 35 has surpassed 28 both in demand and price.

Movies can certainly bring new interest to a character but I don't believe the masses are suddenly compelled to spend 5 figs on a golden age book. There is plenty of source material available online for free, or 2-3 fig more recent books if they want to procure or speculate. I believe the increase in awareness hits existing collectors that often times have overlooked a particular issue and ignites new demand. As we know it doesn't take much new demand relative to low supply to have a dramatic upward price pressure I partially agree, and would value your input on this thought - I believe that, yes, GA collectors start to value the book more as it comes into their awareness as an overlooked book - BUT I also believe that when a movie is announced dealers become aware that GA collectors will be more aware of the book, and that puts notable demand on books with very low supply. That's why I think movies make a big impact on prices. anything that creates new demand or interest generally translates into higher prices... that said, when there are only 2 or 3 or 4 copies of a particular "movie" book available in the marketplace, the pricing is more a result of existing collector demand now focusing on what is probably a previously undervalued issue, rather than the actual "movie" driving the price... perfect example is All Star 8...about 3 years ago (before any movie announcement, but amidst of all the record GA key sales), I starting quietly buying all the AS 8's I could ...and in 2 years , I could only accumulate 9 copies...there just aren't enough to go around...I started getting big premiums to previous prices, again, long before any movie announcement or speculation... maybe the movie interest helped fuel the fire, but it didn't drive it
