Strong sale for a 3.5 on Heritage. Glad to see this book picking back up

Thanks at time I was just happy to get in and own one before prices really skyrocketed

I'm surprised no one is talking about the AF15 cgc blue 5.5 C/OW that went for $72K today at HA.  The 90-day was 40,650 (2 books) and most recent was 40,500 in December (per GPA).  That was an increase of $31,500 or roughly 78% month-to-month!  It did include very cool comments/signatures by a "Steve Ditko" and "Stan Lee" on splash page.    But still, that was a very strong price for non-SS 5.5, heck even an SS 5.5 book!   Wonder if a trend.  

I guess someone really wanted that Ditko sig

I can't imagine having the necessary capital to purchase that kind of book.  Talk about disposable income...  I'll happily stick to my 3.5.

 

same here

Here's my upgrade from my AF #15 CGC 0.5. I got this from Collectors Comics (https://collectorscomics.com/#/). I probably paid over FMV, but not by much. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Colors pop on that book.  Congrats!

wonder if pq or bc or interior is issue?

slight staining in back cover.  wonder if that dinged the grade. Seems like a good resubmit book.

That comic link AF15 is a beauty.  Presents very well for a 4.0

An Amazing Fantasy 15 CGC 6.0 OW/W is being auctioned off tonight at HA:

https://comics.ha.com/itm/silver-age-1956-1969-/superhero/amazing-fantasy-15-marvel-1962-cgc-fn-60-off-white-to-white-pages/a/7236-92218.s?ic2=mytracked-lotspage-lotlinks-12202013&tab=MyTrackedLots-101116

Along with a 5.5 and 5.0.  Seems like blue 6.0s rarely come up for sale, compared to other grades.   Anyway, the bidding is looking solid so far, with likely a bit more to go, for this nice-presenting book for the grade. 

Outside the slight miswrap, presents very well.

2.5 wouldve had a shot at 3.0 but tear in back

Wow that was a few scary weeks of waiting  I salute you. I couldn’t do it 

As a potential buyer on Ebay you have every right to retract your bid as long as it is before 12 hour ending time.  Ebay just asks you to state a reason.  Clearly this book is not slightly restored as there is a major trim job.  That is enough justification.   No need to sit through and take lumps.  This is a large purchase and you should be satisfied with it.  Just my 2 cents

 well I am in too deep...  Maybe if someone comes along and bids higher...

If you are bidding on Ebay you can retract your bid with more than 12 hours left for bidding.  Not sure about other auction sites

Damn these stories and the new CGC reholder disclaimer where you have to agree to cgc not being liable for any reholder damage to a book are what keeps me from submitting my AF15 3.5 and X-men 1 4.0 from being reholdered to a newer holder

Thanks for the feedback.  

I believe I started this thread posting about CGC having a disclaimer for reholdering that you have to agree to that takes liability away from them for any potential damage that may occur for the reholdering.  I was thinking of reholdering my AF15 cgc 3.5 to have the new Spidey city label, but def not now.  Not worth the risk

I have CIS and they do not cover insurance if CGC is reholdering. I asked. They only cover shipping phase with signature. That’s what’s keeping me from changing my AF15 second generation holder
