  10. Cap #1 has come a long way, but something caught my eye, in the upcoming Ha Signature auction this week, the Cap 1 3.5 CGC unrestored with writing on the cover has a reserve of $85,000/$101,5785 plus shipping and insurance. For years on this forum, I have recommended this book as the best GA key buy out there. What lies in the future....well it is STILL underpriced..I am not going to say that the CGC 3.5 is gonna be $203K in 5 years, but there is still room to grow. Which brings to the issue of price point of levels in GA collecting...the old floor in the 1970's was 1k, in the 80's 10K, then 25K...I see more resistance at over 100K for a average copy of a GA Key. and why set the reserve at 101.5K ?What are your thoughts of GA price points today?... where are the cutoff's in terms of number of buyers or market? is it the same number of buyers than 70's/80's and 90's with just more money to spend or inflation of our currency . Also, Ha's new sellers ploy to get new "whale " clients involved buy creating a special auction for items which exceed $10,000 and above...must they to sustain uptick in GA pricing by creating elite auction. Any thoughts appreciated..thanks
  11. better than nothing in the i70's we had nothing, it is great today with all of the wonderful books that have come out....I agree the reader copy is superior to the reprint
  12. a lot of collectors have "reading copies of there slabs, or at least the reprints which can be had on Planet comics
  13. interesting, I know that Doc Savage was a factor in Superman, especially the house ad that appeared saying the words superman......
  14. super artist, some originals are available sometime at Ha.com....
  15. stock market is gonna go up and down...GA market goes only one way ....UP, get out of stocks as they made a minor recovery today and are gonna crash this year and stay in OA or choice CGC unrestored GA
