Or ...... most silver age semi key and key books have increased in price.

Picked this up a while ago. Thanks Bob!

Got this here on the boards.

I get that ! Now with the price creeping its probably hard as well.

What are you waiting for?

This is spot on ! TTA #35 is way undervalued going forward. I agree, I agree ! ! ! TTA #27 Is great but it is a prototype book.

I say: FF #1 7.0 Hulk #1 6.0- 7.0 T.O.S #39 8.0 AMS #1 7.0 I think all of these are going to keep going up, if money is the game. They are also awesome to look at ! Or a 7.0 AF #15 but that's eggs in one basket... Or early batman books ..... Or... buy the bronze top keys in 9.8 ( also awesome to look at.) #realworldproblems good luck !

Congrats ! what key books do you already have?

Great books.........AGAIN

WOW. I don't think any of those are worth much. I did not realize the extent of his fraud.

It will close as 2 will rise.

Ill take the GR #7

I can see where you could assume your theory from. I am starting to think your constant gloom is to try to keep the prices down . Follow the money ! its not just nostalgic old comic book people buying into comics , far from it ! The collectible pool of buyers is growing to include, international buyers, art buyers, general collectable buyers, Disney collectors, pop culture heads and many more ! I believe you are truly underselling this genre of collectibles. There have been many public examples of kids in their 20's buying golden age books, I think it took a very long time for the comic market to become more main stream and respectable and I think that time is almost here. In my opinion this market is not going down in 10, 20 or even 30 years I think it will be the opposite. I do believe like any market there will be big dips and big hills but things will average out. There is a lot of money in this world and American pop culture comic book characters are now very worldly ! I think we will be looking back and saying FXXK ! I should have grabbed another copy of that book ! 20 or 30 years from now they are going to revive all these marvel movies in 6D and live interactive movie technology, and a Hulk #1 is going to be 150 grand for a mid grade. Golden age comics are so rare and demand is very high right now and high grade silver and bronze age classic books are relatively rare compared to demand. Modern variant collectors will get crushed.

I agree and wonder the same things. I don't think there is evidence that the pence books where printed first . I do think it will turn and pence copes will be more valuable because of rarity.

I guess its time to list some. Whats a 9.6 going for?

Great heads up ! saved $100 bucks.

It seems like a lot of silver age comic books are making fresh new highs , I don't know what exactly is going on, but it is getting really expensive to buy many books. Its so hard not to recognize these prices or value. I don't think prices are going to go in the opposite direction. The demand is real and the supply is not infinite. I am excited and bummed at the same time. I have definitely been priced out of many books I really wanted to add to my collection, I fear I will never own them at this point. Who knows !

I am no pro but 7.0 Tops. The staples are shot with see thru holes? tanning and general defects I agree That 8.0 is a real stretch.

$76,000 for an 8.0 A Hulk #1 sitting at $62,000 for a 7.5 yup silver keys are playing AF 15 catch -up... WOW GPA is so out of date on silver keys ..

I would take it easy. I think they will get back to you. The fact that they do not have the damage issue mentioned in the grader notes is a huge tell (it would definitely be listed). If CGC somehow is responsible they will 100 percent Stand behind the mistake. I also think that the presser you used is a stand up guy as well. My opinion.

I think that UK Pence copies are the VARIANT TO OWN. I think its coming. I love the 35 cent variant keys and even some Canadian and Newstands but come on!!! The UK edition was a victim of horrible understanding and false knowledge. If it is ever really validated that these books went on the press first, holy cow ! All these guys spending insane cash on low print run variants and modern gimmick variants are missing the boat. The Uk pence Thread on these boards is a wealth of knowledge. My opinion.

I think that Hulk #181 has real demand and real appreciation. We would need a huge comic book crash for this book to really come back down. At that point there will be lots of books to choose from. If this market stays healthy, the ship has left the port and will continue to climb. Hulk #181 is a top book to own especially in 9.6-9.8 I don't think it will be cheaper so buy one if you want one. 10,200 CGC copies and only 100 9.8 copies it would take a lot to kill that demand for a top book of a character soon to be fully owned by Disney. Just an opinion.
