    what just happened.
  2. SuperBird
    Nice copy of a tough book for a good price. If I didn't have one, I'd grab it fast.
  3. SuperBird
    As a bidder I know I hate it. It's confusing to have different rules for different books in the same auction.
  4. SuperBird
    Howabout: I collect cheap books. I invest in a collection of pricey ones?
  5. SuperBird
    Math. I hate it. lol.
  6. SuperBird
    Obviously one could be both. I would say that if the amount of money you have into comics is financially meaningless to you, then you're a collector. Otherwise, an investor.
  7. SuperBird
    Yeah, all at once. I want to send them off with a bang.
  8. SuperBird
    It's high, but the question becomes "will my books do 10% better on HA than Comicconnect (who would chanrge 10%, IIRC)? to which I think the answer is "yes"?
  9. SuperBird
    FWIW they offered to waive the seller's fee for me, but not the 20% buyer's fee. (I'm selling Action 15-63, slabbed)
  10. SuperBird
    Yeah, it was always the plan to sell them when my daughter went to college.
  11. SuperBird
    It's pretty obvious what I'm consigning, as it's basically all I own.
  12. SuperBird
    Well if that's the case then the choice is simple.
  13. SuperBird
    thanks for the response: as for the 10%, I assume that's on top of the 20% buyer's premium? (in which case, in total, that's the 30% I am referring to)

    After 15 years on here I feel like I should know this answer, but which is the best (most profitable) venue for auctioning GA books these days, Heritage vs. Comic Connect vs. Clink vs. eBay? I know Heritage typically has the highest sale prices, but they also seem to take the highest % in fees.
  15. SuperBird
    I highly doubt he has more copies (aside from I guess a few for himself), as he appears to have come upon some hard times the last few years, and would likely have sold them?

    It's one of a kind, and that cover is an all-time classic. 1st prints pop up once in a while on eBay, but it's definitely scarce.
  17. SuperBird
    Meanwhile!
  18. SuperBird
    Virtually everything "sells" for more on Heritage!

    Albedo 2 in 7.5 last sold for $5160. had been going for more for at least 5 years or so, IIRC. Over the very long haul, it was less expensive than Cerebus 1 up until perhaps 5 years ago, then overtook it, now is back lower.
  20. SuperBird
    He listed it as a BIN.
  21. SuperBird
    Cerebus 1 in 7.5 and 8.5 is going for more than Albedo in the equivalent grades. Not sure what the last Cerebus 1 9.0 sold for, but IIRC it was through the boards and higher than the Albedo 9.0 @ 10,450
  22. SuperBird
    In context: a CGC 9.0 counterfeit just auctioned for $365 or something, and a board-owned CGC 8.0 (non-counterfeit) has been unable to sell through multiple venues for $5k.
  23. SuperBird
    I picked it up for the Zritt cover (and the hype). Good start. Will definitely get the TPB when they release one to see where it goes.
  24. SuperBird
    Batman 11, Action Comics 58, Superman 14.
  25. SuperBird
    Cool books! I collect them as well.
