    I heartily agree that newsstands look better to my eye. But 90 day GPA on 9.8s are $2895 on 4 Directs sold and $2724 on 5 Newsstands sold. GPA hasn’t been tracking newsstands all that long on this one (since mid 2022 I think) but in general the market does not seem to care - at least not yet. I did go back and study GPA numbers a bit more. Sales do not necessarily reflect census but it would appear that there are more newsstands in 9.2/9.0 and below and fewer newsstands in the higher grades. That being said, it’s still not like an ASM 300 were it is probably closer to 1:50 ratio in favor of direct. Just looking at prior 12 months sales on GPA for 194 the ratio is 1:1.4 on 9.8s in favor of direct. Extrapolating that with census counts - it means there might be around 315 direct copies and 210 newsstand for the 9.8. Which makes sense because both copies seem to be available all the time. Again, compare that to ASM 300 at a 1:50 and it would mean only 30 newsstand copies in 9.8 vs 1437 direct. Hence the 3x-4x premium those copies generate
