    I told you, premium for the label that will probably be “Rare” in that buyer’s eyes lol

    $6500 it ended at

    The other one with the plain ol' label is up to $4100 with a week left

    I'd almost consider selling both my copies for $13,000....almost

    I can see someone paying a premium for the label, but not 1k.  If custom labels start adding that kind of premium, the end is nigh.

    Remember we were talking about the next phase of collecting :roflmao:

    I mean it all started with collecting a piece of paper, now people want to pay more for the paper attached to the paper

    Beats the :censored: outta me!

    The auctions end 7 days apart. They should NOT be the same price. Anyone want to bet that the second does not close a $1000 lower than the first? Every single duplicate book in the CL auction will show the same thing if the close is 7 days apart.

    Naw

    That custom label 1 was $4300 with a week out

    The good news is that Amazing Spider-Man #300 is the most submitted comic book in the history of CGC.  There are lots and lots of copies.

    Another bit of good news is that Amazing Spider-Man #300 has seen a price increase recently, and what goes up usually comes down... maybe not all the way back down... but part way.

    Amazing Spider-Man #300 is 33 years old this year, and a very popular comic.

    Incredible Hulk #181 is another very popular comic, so let's turn back the clock to when Incredible Hulk #181 was 33 years old... 2007.

    The price for a CGC 9.8 was $18,000... here's the chart below.

    hulk181_98prices.thumb.png.7e60289bb2505a2be04c8f9cc8d84a63.png

    You could have waited until 2008, when Incredible Hulk #181 was 34 years old and paid more than $18,000.

    You would have waited until 2010 through 2016, and paid less than $18,000.

    If you're in the market today, they're $45,000, and $18,000 would be a bargain.

    Amazing Spider-Man #300 might follow the same pattern, it might not... but if you're planning to hold onto the book for 14 years, all of today's prices might look like a bargain.

    (No matter what, if you are spending $1,000+ on comic books, you should pay for a GPAnalysis.com subscription... spend $10 to save hundreds.)

    Or just ask your friends to look it up for you

    Outside of the movies, its not that difficult to figure out where the popularity and money goes regarding comics publishing.  Keeping it simple, we have three universes of titles:

    1. Spider-verse

    2. Venom-verse

    3. Bat-verse

    Will ASM 300 decrease in value?  It already did, just prior to covid and once again in Dec 2020/Jan 2021, but recovered quickly both times.  Will it drop again?  Probably, but most likely for a short window of opportunity in its path ever upwards.

    The problem with Professor X is that he (generally, there are of course exceptions) is never a "POV" character -- he is treated as an enigma, always somewhat outside the very group he founded.  At times he has been a borderline adversary to the X-Men -- or at least, someone they can't fully trust to give them the whole truth about things.  He's obviously much more than a pure supporting character (Jarvis to the Avengers or Agatha Harkness to the FF) but he's also not quite firmly among the protagonists.

    He is like an Xmen group home staff or Xmen psychologist, someone who uses information to their advantage as a weapon against people. Definitely can't be trusted! And Definitely not the friend the Xmen need. Apocalypse had tge Xmens best interests at heart

    I'd do both trades though I would try to leave out that FF 48 if possible and throw in some cash instead.

    Trade has already made, and sadly the FF 48 is gone, but I can buy another one eventually :sorry:

    My thought as well. When you have 3 books valued over 10k each, it is hard to get excited over a 250 dollar book anymore.

    That's exactly how I feel now that I have the X-Men, I don't even want to buy anything less then 10k

    What is considered a grail or a big key issue whats what,is giant size x men 1 considered a grail or a big key,

    Silver Age grails in my opinion

    Fantastic Four 1

    Amazing Fantasy 15

    X-men 1

    Hulk 1

    Tales of Suspense 39

    Journey into Mystery 83

    I'm probably missing something but GSXM IH 181 those are massive keys

    The first trade proposal I could go either way at the moment. I may lean no however only because I have a feeling Galactus is coming to the MCU and a movie theater near you in the form of a Secret wars trilogy. It should be noted that GSXM label could potentially hinder it if you want to put it on the market. 

    The second proposal is no. Didn't you have another ASM300 9.8 anyway?

    I did have another ASM 300, but two is better then one:roflmao: ...I guess. No in all seriousness I was just hunting around, and it came about so I made the trade. When you say the GSXM label might hinder resale, how much do you figure?
