jreezy

he doesn't often go to Mexico often for cons, so he maybe willing to sketch for fans there, like he did at Paris.

you might try Doug he tends to know about these things... but Campbell's remarks are pretty costly something like $1500 US

 

or try the Signature series thread

 

I've never asked for a sketch personally from him I'd be curious to know how much they are considering his remarks are expensive (at least for me anyway )

 

Yeah, $1,500 would be a little out of the question (maybe), but the sketches in Paris were in the range of 300 EURO.

 

I just don't want to buy something out there, but directly from him, so just asking around. Remarks are nice, but they were indeed expensive and, in my opinion, a sketch is so much better. Still, a remark would be nice if he agrees to.

Really depends on the detail of the sketch. I've seen seen a JSC sketch on blanks sell for as high as $2500. Your price point of $300-$400 range for a JSC sketch will be very difficult, not when some remarks are already selling for $1000

Great pickups guys !

I like how there was one guy (dam60) saying this will be a good book and everyone else being dismissive. It would be cool for him to comment on it, but I don't know if he is on here still?

 

Um excuse me. Not dam60. Me.

Flying donut was a believer of this book from the beginning based on this thread which started in 2003. During this period the book has survived a major united states recession, part of Bush's presidency, Ben Afleck as Batman(barf) and prices are well beyond $500 . 13 years going strong. How many more years before modern haters will give it its due? Another 10 years ? Once it hits 25? I'd love to know to everyone's thoughts.

I'm not aware of any other sites that have it for pre-order for less than $200. not sure if the poster was just sending people on a wild goose chase.

Back from CGC NYCC 2016..

 

 

 

Very happy with the Black Cat 9.6 ..I didnt think it would pass a 9.4

The Black Panther I was hoping would hit a 9.2 but it has a bad scratch on the back cover.

 

 

I estimated these two at around 9.4 or 9.6.. so one of each, not so bad.

 

 

 

 

 

 

These are some duplicate books I had graded and will be for sale in the B/S/T forum.. will post a link tomorrow. They'll be there for a short while and then off to eBay.

 

Also for sale.. not sure what happened with this X-Men 510, its nicer looking then my 9.8 copy. Grader notes say warping/rippling.. I may have it pressed and re-submitted for grading, I dont see any indication why it wouldnt hit a 9.8 other then a few ripples which should easily press out. But if anyone is interested pm me.

 

All in all happy with the grades, one or two graded lower then I expected but in return a few graded higher so cant complain.

 

 

Making America great again

Beautiful!

And it's supposedly already pre-selling for $200.

Yeah, pre order is $200 . Reason why I was asking who the new venom is... so I can decide to pre order or not .

Don't have anything in the ultra rare category as my older books are lower grade, but for difficulty to get another (in spite of being a modern), probably would be this:

 

Wolverine #145 Nabisco CGC 9.8 5xSS, 5 Signatures; Stan Lee, Herb Trimpe, Bill Sienkiewicz, Dexter Vines, Len Wein

 

 

(picture is the sellers from a couple years back, dont have access to my own pictures on my work computer)

Sweet Nabisco CBT!

JSC has a venom 3 variant coming in January. Does anyone know the incentive ratio on this one? Who is the new venom? Are we looking at an MJ or Gwen stacy venom?

Not sure if anyone posted this new list form another site. Updated on 10/16.

 

Don't agree with their ordering and top 10 rankings though.

Okay WTF, that seriously dilutes what we are trying to do here. I want proof of that $3,500 EoS Land variant sale, they've been selling at what $500ish? *mega facepalm*

 

THey don't even record the highest X-23 1 D'O sales price either if they are going by the biggest single sale.

They're talking about the 9.9 sale of the EoSV #2 from over a year ago. It looks like they pretty much base the list off from "highest price ever paid" for a book, regardless of when that was, or whether or not it was an outlier.

 

But yeah, a lot of their sales price data is wrong.

 

ASM 688 Campbell also should have been on that list, along with WD #100 red foil/lucille, etc. It just seems to be "anti-variant" for some reason.

 

-J.

Agreed. It was very strange list, considering it was just updated a couple of weeks ago.

Are people crazy WTF... Book is currently at $1635. Do they see the damage? Insane. I'm out.. I would have overpaid at a thousand but this is just ridiculous.

 

A lot of people just don't care about condition, I sell books full time, I'd say that more people don't care about condition than do.

 

They want it, pure and simple. It's crazy as heck to me, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

 

Jim

totally agree

It finished at $1951.51

 

I contacted the seller earlier, according to him theres nothing else wrong with the book except for that one spot on the cover. The auction was at ~$1900 and dropped to $1635, he said a bidder contacted him to retract his bids.. and then went back up to the $1951.51. His original BIN was $1500 for the book.

 

One thing that stopped me last minute was when I was zooming into the damage it almost looked like there was whiteout spilled on the book.. I started thinking what if that rough spot is not paper missing but something that hardened on top.. it was tough to tell and I didnt have time to message the seller again but he does say in the description that the spot is rough.. if it were just paper missing from a tape pull I would think it would still be somewhat soft, this appeared to look like something hardened.. the last thing you need is the book returning from CGC with a purple label for restoration. Too much damage to risk spending that much money, cover also looked rippled.. too many red flags with this auction.

$1951. I hope the winner at least offered 2k for the 9.6 that is sitting on eBay.

What will 9.8s sell for now 10k

I am willing to trade my 510 sketch 9.8 for 10 Campbell Sketches on blanks

Red flag. Why have the bids private? Let's see if the winner pays for the book.

Agh I want this book so bad! 4K tho

There is a 9.6 on eBay as well. Wonder if that one will press up to 9.8?

Already too much ...book has bad damage top front cover.. looks like it was snagged with a piece of tape or something. It would be a good price if the book were at least in the NM range.

 

Jreezy is bidding it up

3 bids and not one of them is mine. Yet ... I actually wouldn't mind another copy

I'm going under 1k, but who knows? watchcount is at 42.

Cyber- Agreed, looks like a tape snag which breaks my heart

Anyone care to guess where this raw 510 sketch ends at?

So you meant ROI

This should be interesting ...

Don't see these auctioned off very often. Wonder if the seller will actually allow this one to play out.

 

-J.

 

Hah, and a mere 13 years ago people were scoffing at this selling for $500!

 

$500 13 years ago probably equals $1500 today? Wild guess of course.

 

True, assuming an APR of 9%

Inflation rate of 9%? What country do you guys live in?

Exactly. I think some people here just like to hate on modern books. I collect books of all ages BTW.

Going on 13 years and the book has sustained and has gone beyond the $500 mark.

Oh me!?!

 

BEAUTIFUL!!!

Since Alex didn't post Elektra, I'll go aead and do it.

 

 

 

This is a stunning cover. wow
