VERY good advice !
Thanks.
It might make for a good story to tell that I originally bought 500 of them.
Someone, and I dont remember now who it was, in the coin dealer community told me about the movie coming out in 1977 and said that there was a comic book coming out ahead of the movie and that I could probably double my money if if i bought them and sold them when the movie came out.
I ordered 500 through a comic book distributor, and i got a break on the price because of the qty. I paid 24 cents each.
I sold 100 a few weeks later at $3. each.then over the years, whenever a new S/W movie came out, I would sell a few issues. The last time I sold some about 6-8 yrs ago, I got around $13 to $17.
The I put the last hundred in safe storage. Then recently, hearing about the new movie, i decided to check out what that issue was doing on ebay. I think I saw one graded 9,7 sell for 2 grand. I crapped my pants and then went to dig them out of storage.
When I sent them to cgc, I opted for the 5 day express service on , what I considered the best 20 comics. CGC tells me they're shipping them to me on monday. The rest are in for 5-6 weeks.
Fortunately, I dont NEED to sell them. Maybe a few, then leave em in my will among my kids and grandkids.
I've had some good score in my coin business over the years, but this one is probably my best score. (if they grade out as high as i think they will)
