What grade do you think is your Blip 1 CPV?

Any chance you have Key Canadian Price Variants in 9.8?

Very true ! Speaking of Canadian Price Variants, ComicLink has some incredible keys in the present auction (May). I'm looking at a few myself to bid on.

It's been my experience over the last number of years that Key CPV's in higher grades are VERY sought out by a strong and growing number of collectors in both Canada and the USA. The problem is finding these keys in higher grades at reasonable prices. Most CPV books I see across the country are not keys in really high grades. Many collectors are still not aware of them, hence interest will grow with awareness.

Hi Folks, the newly updated 2022 CANADIAN PRICE VARIANT GUIDE is out. Some new features were added this year (ex., top 20 Canadian Price Variant magazines, etc...) https://www.cpvpriceguide.com/

One sold on ComicLink yesterday (#188 in 9.8 CPV) congrats if you won. The current ComicLink auction has some very nice Canadian Price Variants ending each night this week, up to including next Tuesday (Some really good ones ending tonight) Prices are all over the place with many below FMV.

Reach out to Ben, he's looking for the missing images from Canadian Price Variant collectors and many have already helped out willingly. Yes, the guide is constantly expanding with books, images, articles, etc...

Hi David, the images for a few of the books on your list can be found on www.cpvpriceguide.com

CGC Changes their labels from " Edition" to " Price Variant" for Australian, Canadian and Pence books starting tomorrow ....fantastic news !!! Two Thumbs up to STEVE and everyone else who helped contribute towards this positive change over the years !!! https://rarecomics.wordpress.com/2019/05/05/applause-to-cgc-now-labeling-type-1as-as-canadian-price-variant-australian-price-variant-and-uk-price-variant/

You should reach out to Ben at www.rarecomics.wordpress.com , he's putting together images for all the Marvel and DC Canadian Price Variants. You guys could share images and help one another. What are you planning on doing with the images?

Subby1938: Definitely agree that key books are hard to find, particularly in high grades. *(Batman 357 is a 75c Price Variant)

I'm in the same boat, it states GRADED as of today. Is there any way that at this stage I might see it ONLY on the CGC census but NOT on my online submission form?

Please add me as well.

I agree with Finecollector who described it just perfectly . Although, your best bet would be to personally meet up with collectors in Montreal and Laval.

SILVERXSURFER, I just sent you a PM. I'd be interested if you're selling. PM me when you can

Andy, you bring up an important topic! It has happened a few times where a seller tells me " sorry I do not ship to Canada...only the USA" . I never understood that logic since it takes less than a minute for me to fill out a form and ship to a fellow brother in the USA.
