    Am I seeing things or did Comic Connect fetch $8100 for a 9.2 in their auction just now ending? At this point I know I should NOT be surprised by what this book does anymore, but wow.

    Read Bob Storms had recently picked this one up (in the ask the blazin one forum) so I wouldn’t leave him alone until he let me take it off his hands!

    Continuing the #31 discussion, I saw Minh had a gorgeous 9.2 listed for sale earlier this week and I thought his ask of $2400 was a fair price so I was surprised at the hammer on that 9.2 as well. I am the owner of a previous Voldy 9.0 that was resubbed to CGC and came back a 7.5 (), so in the coming months, hopefully at SDCC I'll be able to find a nice upgrade for #31 and find a nice mid-grade copy of #2. Love the ASM red covers (2, 31, 50)!

    From what I know there are no requirements for CGC and their graders when it comes to graders notes. In fact, I rarely check them as 99% of the time (for me anyway), it's a waste of time given the vagueness of most of their notes, if there are any. I guess this is in accordance with their policy on not to publish their grading standards.

    I was hoping 8.5, but thought 8.0 on a bad day. I was really caught off-guard by the 7.5. Oh well...at least I can now say I have a NICE 7.5! Here are the ASM 31 notes: Company X: tiny spine stress breaks color tanning top interior cover wear bottom spine breaks color CGC: Light crease left bottom of front cover breaks color Moderate tanning top of interior cover Hard to say what they punished so heavily. Is tanning a big CGC negative? The lower left hand crease was my guess, but CGC calls it "light". And apologies, as I know this is the Gold forum.

    Killer in the fact that it was such a big drop. I did feel it was overgraded as a 9.0 so I was not disappointed in the drop, but the severity of the drop.

    I subbed 3 X books to CGC. X ASM 31 9.0 came back CGC 7.5 X Hulk 2 4.5 came back CGC 4.5 X Hulk 4 6.0 came back CGC 5.0 I kept the X labels before I sent them to CGC. That ASM was a killer

    Awesome pick ups on both books. I’m just seeing this thread...otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to resist that Adventure. What a classic cover!
  15. grube09
    If you didn’t get me started on Golden Age I’d be all over these. Really nice looking early Hulk’s!!
