  1. the ASM 300 9.8 sold for $3300 which is a bit above last sale and over $200 higher than 90 day.
  2. A little over a week apart. Both with MC but the better PQ actually sold for less. The higher sale was part of the Signature auction.....
  3. As a follow-up to the current status of re-holdering. I sent in an ASM 300 9.8 in a 2nd Gen slab for a re-holder - mailed off about a week before this news broke. My book WAS NOT one of the books listed on the CGC list. Just received the book: - Book retained the 9.8 grade - Book retained the same certification number but with a new grading date of 1/4/2024 - No pictures yet on the CGC site. The one odd thing which may be some CGC internal process - when I clicked through My Submissions on this book it takes me to a totally different certification number that shows the same grading date but with no grade listed. https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/0908826005/ - this is cert on the actual book I just received and matches the original 2nd Gen slab https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/4369276001/ - this is the cert you get when clicking through My Submissions/Submission #.
  4. No….these are Amazing. You haven’t listed Spectacular yet
  5. I'll let you know how it goes in a few days. I sent in an ASM 300 9.8 in a 2nd Gen slab for a re-holder about a week before this news broke. Currently in Grading/QC. No damage to the slab - it is just my OCD can't take having the different generations of slabs (and colors are more vivid with 3rd gen holders in my opinion even with newton rings). I use re-holder service more than grading these days as I convert newly acquired 2nd gen slabs or re-holder 3rd gen slabs to get rid a custom labels (not a fan) - so I am interested in how this process will work.
  6. I don’t think one could say that the scandal has definitively impacted anything. The 194 9.8 sold for 2650 which is right at the 90 day average and where the book has been bouncing around since mid-2023. Depending on the book and platform - it has moved between 2500 and 3000 for six months. the 181 9.4 was 7% off the last sale which was in Oct so that too feels like a general marketplace decline. The 7.5 was soft but the 6.0 was exactly flat to 90 day and 12 month average - it was also the 2nd highest sale across the last nine sold. Given volume that books like ASM 300 and IH 181 trade at - and how likely it is that only a small subset of buyers even know about this topic - I personally don’t think is going to directly affect values that much This board is probably not representative of the knowledge and expertise of the average collector/hobbyist
  7. Dealt with addiction of a close friend the past few years.....it is a whole different level of a problem. Sauce Dog's last post gave me bad memories of the kind of things I saw. Keeping fingers crossed for everyone.
  8. Funny you bring this one up - they had another Aliens #1 in this auction and the listing even touted the “incredible sale” of that $7.5k copy. Swagglehaus has new YT video talking about a drastic overpay on a TEC issue this auction as well Here is the TEC 47 7.0 that went for $19k. Most recent sale was a 6.5 Promise Collection in 2021 that was $2400. Even 7.0 sales have never cracked $2k.
  9. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 9.8 - $155.3k Aug 2023 (ComicConnect) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 9.8 - $131k Aug 2023 (Clink) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 9.8 - $132k Jan 2024 (Heritage)
  10. Big day on Heritage. Three 7-figure sales and nine 6-figure books. Up sales: Supes #1 7.0 (2.34M vs 1.6M), BB #28 (810 vs 750) "Flat-ish": Bat #1 7.0, All-Star #8 9.4, ASM #9 9.8, TMNT #1 9.8 Down: Batman #1 2.0 (102 vs 177), Silver Surfer #1 9.8 (132 vs 222)
