Sale of a 6.0 went for 27k on eBay.  Not sure the sale is legit, but it is a nice presenting copy with white pages and no marvel chipping.  Interested to see if it sticks in GPA.

Looks violently undergraded !!

Yeah sure not a single Asian (no Canadians either I must be unique) is into superheroes give me a break. Even if a small percentage of people in China get into collecting comics that is still a huge amount of people and again that is one single nation. You just like seen the world crumble. You seem to get a high out of it or maybe you make money off of it.

Like Alfred said about the Joker....''some people just like to see the world burn''. You are so limited in your analysis it's unbelievable. As if you know what every single human is doing just based on a few stats that you provide and throw at us. And based on what others have said here you have been like this for years must be a real joy to be around in real life.

Your so called ''thesis'' would not stand the test even in the worst of universities (the links you try to make have not been proven at all they are just your simple theory....nothing more nothing less). You put so many people in the same basket with just a few variables it is ridiculous. And the worst is it is dogma to you and you want us to buy into it.

You may be a educated man but these things you take for certainties without doing a real profound examination (I don't think it would be even possible since people have changes of heart every single day in what they do as far as hobbies go) of the whole comic book world and what that world realize on to survive simply has no base value whatsoever.

It's like me telling say Gator how the market is doing and not doing at conventions or other such venues where he sells books at. It would be only a so called ''calculated'' guess at best versus his real life experience on the floor (face to face) with collectors for so many years. It would make no sens at all if I did that and certainly would not be dogma to be followed blindly. Reality wins over such theories any day of the week.

Thanks ... the book definitely appreciates the kind words.  It was starting to develop a complex about its green boxes.

Its a gorgious 9.0.

congrats ...

What do you think is going on with the greens on your copy?  Was it just a color strike without much blue in it?

Bleached by sunlight ... ?

No complete copy of Tec 27 can be had now for less than 250k now. Raw, restored, whatever. Think I'm wrong? Find one for less. Not happening. Edit: I think a blue label 1.0 fetches 250k now, as does  a lower grade (say 3.0)extensively restored copy. New jumping on point for the book is 250k any way you slice it.

Extensive 4.5 = 250 K.

holy S-hit !

If you move into the proximity of this book, you gonna get your wallet raped.

This book is dangerous.

Stan is a walking insult of King Jack Kirby.

Ahhhh the greatest comic book of all-time!! Would love to own that CGC 2.5!!

Amen to that ...!

Could the 6.0 offering turn out to hurt the final hammer of the 2.5 ?

If a 6.0 went for 575K in 2010.

what do you expect a 6.0 copy to do in 2018?

double ...?

When was the last time a high(er) universal grade like that  came up for auction ?

Many many moons ago.  Seems like people are sitting on their copies.

I think Bill Stout inked part of the issue. I saw a copy where he signed that spot on the cover. 

Looks like a good spot for a signature. Wonder if there are any Kirby signed ones out there.... I read this series last year along with Kamandi and Sandman. Long live the King!

Yes he was truly the King!

Personally I would recommend getting a blue label within your budget , as opposed to a purple or green label. Just be patient and keep an eye on auctions and conventions. If you have your heart set on a 9 ( or so) perhaps search for an upgraded copy and get it graded yourself to save on the initial cost.

Thanks for the advice. Will definitely consider this.

At a glance, looks like it's still trending up strongly across all grades.

I desire a HG copy of this book:   9.0ish. But no way Im gonna dish out 2500 smackers for a universal 9.0.

im wondering: is restored the Way to Go on this book?

Just to add, there's a couple sales on CLINK (which don't report to GPA) that are at 2202 and 2379. There was also an offer on one for 2550.

9.0 Are climbing.

Agendas and wishes, as long as the character is an icon i think it will be a book people want. When I was a kid I could have bought a Spiderman #1 for $100  or so but that was crazy thinking. The book was way out of my range, looking back I think what a fool I was. I think the same thing about books now, if I was a twenty year old I would buy a few and at 65 be real glad I did. Just think about all the books lost this year alone, fires, flood's and other issues. I have a 9.2 that I hope one of my great grand kids will look at as a family treasure to pass along.

Is there any evidence at All of books lost to flooding?
