    yeas  but all the new price points all of a sudden are still a bit bewildering. Look at X-Men already falling off crazy highs in grades  147K in 8.0 with newer sales far less.  Daredevil feels like irrational exuberance over rumors that hes arriving in the MCU movies soon.  And that DD1 prices haven't budged in many years.

    that's because X1 is not part of the Marvel trinity (FF1, Hulk1, AF15) and was overhyped

    The market is as the masses believe despite the prophets' posits and the profiteers' posturing's.  As long as there are 2 high-rollers in the final seconds of any auction pushing each other up and up and up :ohnoez: (and assuming no shill bidders and scams) the sky is the limit on certain holy grails.  In the end AF15 was always the Action #1 of the SA and in time only a very small fraction of comic collectors will be able to afford even a lowly point 5.  Plus when I see collectors dishing out 1k plus for an incredibly common 2005 key in CGC 9.8 - a book I intuitively feel is worth perhaps 1/10th of that - I think these grail prices make more and more sense.  Lamenters and lamentations aside - this particular key-gravy train has indeed left the station for good IMO ----- hence the crazy prices on raggedy ugly copies.  My 2-cents. :preach:

    I agree with almost everything, except the slander for YOUNG AVENGERS #1 :). that book is considered the modern GSX1 for a reason. just you wait for the team to assemble in the MCU.
