Now I've got a dog in this fight!
That was me, and $400 was indeed paid.
However there are a few other factors.
1) That included shipping to Australia
2) The book was very harshly graded indeed, after sending off for a press its passed a 9.8 pre-screen
3) It also included 6 x Saga #1 NM+ raw, one of which I just sold 9.8 slabbed for $150 approx.
So if you want to consider this sale, factor in $400 for a 9.8 Chew #1 + 6 x Saga #1 9.8's (one of which has banked me back $150) plus shipping.
The seller too,has to be commended, for being awesome to work with.
I also may have a flair for rubbing people up the wrong way,but I am not stupid regarding modern comics.
Let the record state that my current inventory when all are returned from CGC (sometime in 2018 apparently ) will show.

I learnt all this info off this forum and found the knowledge of Jim,Jeff,Krighton,Huge (Mr 9.4) Rosen etc etc pivotal to all this.
Special thanks go to Giggling Monkey who steered me the right way from day one.
You have to do your own research though - hence my pre-purchase of Bedlam #1 x 50 copies, and the mad search for Zombies vs Robots, but when blokes like C-Ya and CGCworld speak its wise to listen.
C-Ya can be a patronising so and so at times but he has always been helpful and upfront
If you doubt his word,go look at his ebay page - you don't turn over what, $200,000 Jeff? without knowing your mess.
Apologies for such a positive post but my team made the Grand Final (AFL) yesterday and I find myself still rather 'refreshed'
I will be back to my usual annoying self soon (thumbs u
I learned to listen to those guys early .
That's a nice set right there. I wanna get all of my chew collection slabbed once I get the money
