  1. You are incorrect. No sir you are incorrect. Show me where a SA mega key has declined in value since 1980. Instead of sweeping blanket statements...back it up with data. Every year OSPG would increase the price of keys like hulk 1, TOS 39, JIM 83, etc.ive not see I showed earlier that since 2002 Hulk 181 has increased in value. You love to tell people they are wrong but how about some substance behind your posting? You remain incorrect. If you believe I cannot support my statement, I'm ok with that. "You are incorrect" is, however, not a sweeping blanket statement. Ok RMA, I'll just take your word for it since you show no data. As I said, go look at any mega key from the SA in a 1980 price guide and tell me any of those keys has declined in price or a bubble burst on them today. I'll be waiting

  3. Can you be more specific? The 90s was horrible from a modern perspective where all these moderns were climbing in price then boom the bottom dropped But, Silver Age keys have always climbed in price. Go look at a 1980 price guide and see what Hulk 1 was valued at....see what it is today. See what it was in 1990. It has always climbed. Same with TOS 39, JIM 83, AF15, ASM 1....I have not seen a decline in the demand or value of these books. Some years have stayed more steady than others and some have had huge spikes (like AF15 some years ago and Hulk 1 this past year). Hulk 181 and GSXM to me will continue to rise and stay in demand. NM 98...maybe not. Variant of the week....not at all.
  4. For a Bronze age book I won't go as low as 2.0 to see the swing. So I did 9.2, 8.0 and 5.0....all show a nice increase for IH 181. However, it's not as steep an increase in a key book as I would like to see. For me, it's the 5 year swing and % of increase 9.2 shows a steady increase 2015 (2) $3,600Hi $2,950Lo 2014 (22) $3,200Hi $1,937Lo 2013 (41) $2,330Hi $1,795Lo 2012 (29) $2,295Hi $1,500Lo 2011 (23) $1,895Hi $1,308Lo 2010 (24) $2,500Hi $1,098Lo 2009 (22) $1,950Hi $1,300Lo 2008 (20) $2,195Hi $1,235Lo 2007 (34) $1,995Hi $1,100Lo 2006 (20) $1,550Hi $900Lo 2005 (41) $1,725Hi $1,000Lo 2004 (61) $1,600Hi $1,050Lo 2003 (51) $1,725Hi $1,035Lo 2002 (31) $1,550Hi $810Lo An 8.0 shows a rise also 2015 (4) $1,750Hi $1,675Lo 2014 (42) $2,041Hi $850Lo 2013 (29) $1,550Hi $751Lo 2012 (25) $1,170Hi $499Lo 2011 (34) $1,016Hi $580Lo 2010 (32) $1,000Hi $593Lo 2009 (39) $1,043Hi $620Lo 2008 (29) $925Hi $500Lo 2007 (32) $850Hi $461Lo 2006 (37) $847Hi $400Lo 2005 (40) $800Hi $474Lo 2004 (27) $772Hi $490Lo 2003 (46) $949Hi $450Lo 2002 (19) $776Hi $430Lo 5.0 shows a nice increase over time 2015 (1) $900Hi 2014 (15) $965Hi $500Lo 2013 (17) $699Hi $485Lo 2012 (14) $640Hi $348Lo 2011 (12) $435Hi $275Lo 2010 (6) $475Hi $323Lo 2009 (11) $400Hi $250Lo 2008 (13) $337Hi $197Lo 2007 (12) $450Hi $228Lo 2006 (13) $281Hi $188Lo 2005 (11) $275Hi $203Lo 2004 (13) $336Hi $193Lo 2003 (19) $500Hi $188Lo 2002 (5) $291Hi $193Lo
  5. 9.8 of any comic is a bad choice for "sizing the market' on a value. I tend to look at 9.2 as a baseline then I look at 5.0 and then 2.0 to get a real grasp of the market.
  6. Sweet book. Not a strong 9.6 in my opinion.
  7. I enjoyed the episode last night because it showed how desperate they are. It showed how low and on the edge they all are right now and the fragile state they are in. It had some boring moments but I still liked it
  8. I agree with this! I don't think your comic link thread was a glowing endorsement...
  9. I will own that. There goes my money
  10. I'm really glad I saw this thread. I have a stack of books ready to go to CGC and I planned on using CCS for some of the books. Forget that now.
  11. There are a ton of Harvey file copies being auctioned off at Pedigree and ending this week.
  12. Sold a couple of books to David and was a pleasure. I'd do business with him again anytime. All the best
  13. I got Moljnoir the other day. The hammer is amazing!
  14. What about theft Oak? I feel better paying the premium knowing my collection is financially protected. I use ColllectInsure and thankfully have had no reason for a claim and I hope it stays that way. I use standard protection like a house alarm, stored above the floor, in a cool dry place, etc but having the insurance certainly makes me feel better
