Still waiting on a book from over a year ago.

So you whine about this being a bad spec book but now youre whining cuz I sold too early? Make up your mind about what you would like to complain about.

I sold mine for $650 usd and paid 189$. So yes, it was a great book to speculate on. Math is hard

Oh you think thats ALL I have? 🤣😂🤣😂

Actually, I have 3 copies of Final Crisis 7. Thats not exactly nothing. 😂🤣😂🤣😂

have you seen the price jump today? it has sold for 400 and has listings of up to 500 now.

I'd buy every single issue of Hell Arisen 3 I could. Punchline is getting an HBO Max show, super low print run (11k) and is "diverse". Get it get it get it! Take those gains from that book and buy bigger books. Rinse, repeat.

This is correct. The last 9.8 went for $189 USD two days ago. I predict this will double by the time spring rolls around when Calvin is reintroduced. Once it becomes a movie a 9.8 will fetch well over 1k.

The first Black Superman. If you know anything about comics is that they are forcing diversity down our throats. As a speculator I'd say load up on all of the black versions of mainstream characters in case they pull a miles morales and go up in value like crazy. Sure the movies might suck, nobody really wants to see this but it'll drive the prices up and that's all that matters.

It looks like Final Crisis 7 is Calvin Ellis' first appearance after all no matter what the Cgc says.

You came here and completely missed the topic of the dicussion. Now my time has been wasted. In case you missed the subject line I will repost it. Which issue is his first appearance?

I'd rather go for a bigger gain. I look at books at this level as penny stocks. The potential for a 5 or 10x is greather than a higher value book.

Then I shall be the greatest of the great fools! Anyway, black Superman will be the next one to pop off so the prices are still very low for this character. As of yesterday I counted only 72 graded copies of Final Crisis 7, Action 9 has maybe 90 graded.

I'm going to ask key collector. CGC isn't the authority on anything no more than you or I are. Not to say that Key collector is either, but I've already bought a 9.8 graded copy and now need Final Crisis 7 to be the one!

The fact that he was or wasn't superman shouldn't matter. Look at Tim Fox, first appearance is Batman 313 and he wasn't Batman at all in that one. Sometimes I really really hate this industry.

Final Crisis 7 is the first appearance of Calvin Ellis, aka black superman. Why does Action comics 9 say first full appearance on the slab when it is his 2nd appearance? Is this going to be 1st Gambit debate all over again where a few people get to decide which book is the key?

I recently dropped off a book at my lcs to be graded. My question pertains to spinde split and how it will affect a grade if at all. It peels off the spine near the center. Sorry for the low res cell phone pics and I dont have any more photos of it. There is also some corner blunting top and bottom, again not sure if thats a manufacturer defect or from shipping. Here are a few photos.

Thanks. Hoping to get it to a 9.4.

I hope my bend presses out. Im taking it to a different shop in a few months and hope they can repair this. So pisssed about this

Thats what I think too. Which leads me to believe it didnt get damaged until it was at the cgc being encapsulated. I would have pressed it first and would never submit it looking like this. The CGC said I can send it back to get fixed. Does that mean theyll press the book to fix the bent corner or just reslab it as this case is scuffed and scratched? Im not sure if they will assume responsibility for this. Maybe id be better off getting it pressed and resubmitted through a different lcs.

Thanks for the insight. My lcs opted not to press it which was odd to me considering its in the nm range. Agreed on not being able to prove the damage, its a bit upsetting as the damage came after I sent it in. I might go to another shop and have them press and resubmit. In the near future im going to buy a press and submit myself so it doesnt happen again.

slab is also scuffed and scratched badly

I went to a local comic shop and submitted through them. When I picked up the book today I noticed this corner damage, which wasn't there before when I dropped it off at the store. Has anyone seen this type of damage and know what could cause it? 2nd photo is the best one I have of it before it was sent off. Id also like to note that the grader notes do not mention anything about the corner damage, and there are 2 small light scuffs on the front of the case.
