    Probably don't see this too often. Sign the outside, inside, or both maybe?

    Can I just be an enthusiast? Some comics I buy because I love them, others I buy because it's a good deal and is a book someone else will love.

    Buyers of huge collectibles know others that buy/sell like items. When Joe sells Dave his $100M Picaso, others that know Joe and Dave may have some insight and are thus influenced. It drives value or sets value whether they tell 8 people or 8 billion people.

    Private or public, a transaction is a transaction. Doesn't matter the name attached to the widget. Could be the Hope Diamond, or a Hostess Ho-Ho. And if you swim in any circle where items sell privately, it drives your desires and impressions for similar items that you buy/sell publicly.

    According to GPA, there are 32 copies of AF15 for sale, there may be single pages in that total. That would be CGC graded copies only. Pretty easy to find one and make a deal relative to the GA Mega keys. There is 1 AC1 copy today, one coverless copy of BAT1, 0 copies of CAP1, and 1 copy of TEC27. A solid argument could be made for supply pushing demand.

    Saw a Facebook post that I found interesting. Collectors had focused on a 1-20 run of FF, signed by Stan Lee. Then, they focused on the highest graded copy of each. Years of searching and all that goes with that, until the goal was reached. The post says that they are going up for auction soon on Connect or Clink.

    How many copies of AF15 traded hands last year? The past 5 years? How many copies of AC1, Bat1, Cap1, TEC27 traded hands last year? Very little opportunity for any collector to get one of those GA Mega keys. Comparably, lots of opportunity to score an AF15. For many, those GA books are virtually unobtainable whereas the AF15 could be had for a fraction of the price.

    I was but a casual observer for those beauties. I tried for the pair of DS's, without success.

    Never mind. Now I see it
  21. Chief1332
    Congratulations. How long ago did you acquire this one?
  22. Chief1332
    Nice. The way we all like to find them

    Those experienced and trusted clean and press folk could really be put to the test here. I would think that the notes would say "breaks color" on books in this grade range. Has cgc verbiage changed over the years? I seem to recall that CCS once offered a prescreen on a CGC graded book, to see if it would get a grade bump..??
  24. Chief1332
    Congratulations. I am sure that more than a few of us were trying to win this copy.

    Merry Christmas, to all. And to all a good night.
