Been a while since I have sold here or anywhere really. I did sell other copies of Eternals 1 here about a year or so ago (I have more but only one 9.8). Just bought a piece of original art and need to recoup some cash. eBay ID is xmen94. Been ages since I sold anything there though...all the tax stuff is too complicated! Eternals #1 CGC 9.8 OW/W - $2450 *NEW* Eternals #1 CGC 9.0 OW/W - $230 *NEW* Eternals #1 CGC 8.5 OW/W - $195 Eternals #5 CGC 9.8 White - $675 Dr. Strange #1 CGC 9.6 White - SOLD Conan #61 30 cent CGC 9.4 White - $150 Conan #62 30 cent CGC 9.6 White - SOLD First to “take it” in the thread wins. DM with questions. No probation or HOS. US only please I will pay shipping and insurance via USPS priority mail for orders over $500. Below $500 just add $10 for shipping for up to three books.

I think that covers it. Thanks for looking!

Well...i made the deal. I had to throw a couple other things at it, but it's done. So, while I no longer own an FF5...I do own this.

LOL...ok then. Maybe I hold.

That was me with Eternals #1...20 copies, 3 for a $1. Bought them because I was on a Kirby spree!

Same here...haven't bothered to dig it out and send it in. I think the guy I bought from had a stack of ~50 pristine copies back in the day! but...that was 25 years ago probably.

Just had mine graded and came back 5.5 OW/W. Trying to use this book as part of a deal with a local dealer who has a JIM 83 in the same grade. What do you think the trade value is for the FF5? Could change dramatically in the near term...I just lost my crystal ball. Thoughts?

Well, that worked out

Just got these back. Both for sale if interested. I have the 62 posted in the sale room.

I went for JIM/Thor as well...but figured there was always time to get 83. Nope. But I have all but ~5 issues from 84-200. That is a great run....and they were dirt cheap for so long in the 90s when I was putting the run together. I did complete FF 1-100. My #1 literally has a band-aid on the back cover sealing a rip. But hey...it's complete and it's in the collection!

I started collecting in 1985. Friend of mine in my dorm in college asked if I wanted to go to the comic book store. One of the first books I bought was X-Men 201 or 202...something like that. One thing lead to another and I ended up with the full run 1-350 or something around there. But it was issues 94-141 that I was focused on completing in the early days. What run did you first complete??

At 1672 copies in 9.8 and selling at about $400-$450 a copy, I suspect this can't last. Anyone think there is more room for this book? Sometime in the early 90's I got a couple copies from a guy who had a stack of them at WonderCon in SF. Essentially NM-MT...something like $10 or less. But that was a long time ago.

Not a great photo...but you get the idea. 16 copies...bought them ages go. Sunk some cash for grading, but it will work out in the end. There are a lot of people with a lot of high grade copies. I wonder when will this market saturate?

I would go higher...probably 8.5

3.5-4 IMHO...love that cover...all time classic.

Picked this up today at a local con. Got home and got to wondering if maybe this was trimmed. Impossible to really see in scans, but the edges on the cover right, top and bottom do exhibit some "Marvel chipping". Book also has slight rust and slight rust migration. Main question is...was this trimmed? Either way...first thing I did when I got home was read it. Fun book!

I give you my copy of FF1...not far from the one here!

Tonight on Heritage. https://comics.ha.com/itm/silver-age-1956-1969-/fantastic-four-1-marvel-1961-condition-fr/a/121840-11469.s?ic4=GalleryView-Thumbnail-071515

I don't have that book, but I did find it here: http://pangolinbasement.blogspot.com/2013/12/toth-danger-trail-3-battle-flag-of.html Great site to look at scans of Toth's work.

FF1-100 (but broken up at the moment since I got rid of 2 and 3) this one is lower grade...took about 3-4 years or less. I probably will not complete it with 2 and 3 again...thinking of getting rid of FF5. Conan 1-200 and beyond...still intact X-Men1-400 (I don't have #1 any more though...so 2-400) this one took about 15 years Almost have a complete JIM/Thor run from 83 to 200...but missing 83 and maybe 5 others. I think I was close to a complete Dr. Strange run from ST110 thru the Colan/Brunner series...but I got rid of ST110...so no more. I can't hold on to books when they get too valuable...too many other cool things out there!

CGC 9.6 copy has been sold. CGC 9.4 copy is still available.

Hi...two more copies from my "mini-hoard" of Eternals #1 books. To be clear...these are different copies than the ones I am offering on the "board only" sale area. Eternals #1 CGC 9.4 $190 Buy-it-Now $7.25 USPS Priority shipping Eternals #1 CGC 9.6 $320 Buy-it-Now $7.25 USPS Priority shipping Thanks for looking!

I actually picked this copy up in Mt View, California at Big Guys comics sometime around 2000. It was $300 pre CGC. I didn’t intend on selling, but once a book gets crazy I tend to move on. If only I knew!!

Sold my CGC 9.6 copy for $2850 in the early 2000's. Doh!!

A sample:

Saw this on eBay today and made an offer at $415 against a $499 asking price. How crazy am I?? I love this book...and I know that Toth saw it as one of his masterpieces. Hot Wheels #5 CGC 9.4 Toth once said, "If I hated a -script, I couldn't send it back to the editor. I was capable of doing a "throwaway" job, to just "get it out," not see it anymore! But, if really interested in doing my very best, not repeating myself, not falling back on easy ways out, because this -script warranted better-than-average effort, I'd give 110%." Toth did this entire book...writing, penciling and inking. I'd say he gave 110%. There are 18 graded copies...4 in 9.4 none higher.
