A 5.0 sold for $2500?

Does CGC knock off points for that That is sweet. I'm sooooo jealous

6.5's have sold for more (thumbs u Maybe, but they're not on GPA GPA isn't the bible...and can be a very poor way to measure a book's value My In an roundabout sort of a way, that's the point I'm making. I'm being "ironic".

Like the saying goes, If a GPA falls and no ones there to witness it, does it makes a sound?

A GPA high for this 6.5 http://www.comiclink.com/itemdetail.asp?back=%2Fsearch%5Fadv%2Easp%3Fall%3Dy%26TITLE%3D%26TITLEOPT%3DALL%26ISSUE%3D%26Condition%3D%26ConditionTo%3D%26CensusRank%3D%26SearchPageQuality%3D%26Pedigree%3D%26PRICEF%3D%26PRICET%3D%26DESCRIPTION%3D%26DESCRIPTIONOPT%3DALL%26SearchRemarks%3D%26SearchCGC%3D%26EXCLUDE%3D%26CATEGORIES%3D%2D1%26WCATEGORIES%3D%2D1%26SORT%3DNEW%26%5Fwhere%5Fforsale%3Dy%26%5Fwhere%5Fauctions%3Dy%26x%3D23%26y%3D8%26where%5Fforsale%3Dy&id=974853

Nice. This book ought to get some attention.

You hit the nail on the head. I missed one selling on the boards I recall and quickly set my sights to find another copy. The one I have has a sizable date stamp near to the Brave and the Bold pennant, making it unmistakable to anyone who's seen it. I probably should have bought a few, but even at 1/3rd today's FMV it was a lot of cash for me to tie up. But I am glad I got mine. Also snagged a #29 & 30 around the same time. They haven't made anywhere near the gains of the #28. But it's obviously at a different level.

Thanks! That was one of the few times I was actually ahead of the wave

Just looked, that's when I got mine

so what time is the matinee?

Aye carumba

The HOM looks similar. Highest graded.

Cool! My son picked up 4 tickets, I'll have to ask him if he downloaded this digital prequel and check it out. There's a CGC 6.5 copy that just went up on comic link. http://www.comiclink.com/itemdetail.asp?back=%2Fsearch%5Fadv%2Easp%3Fall%3Dy%26TITLE%3D%26TITLEOPT%3DALL%26ISSUE%3D%26Condition%3D%26ConditionTo%3D%26CensusRank%3D%26SearchPageQuality%3D%26Pedigree%3D%26PRICEF%3D%26PRICET%3D%26DESCRIPTION%3D%26DESCRIPTIONOPT%3DALL%26SearchRemarks%3D%26SearchCGC%3D%26EXCLUDE%3D%26CATEGORIES%3D%2D1%26WCATEGORIES%3D%2D1%26SORT%3DNEW%26%5Fwhere%5Fforsale%3Dy%26%5Fwhere%5Fauctions%3Dy%26x%3D32%26y%3D12%26where%5Fforsale%3Dy&id=974158 Never mind, it's SOLD Price: $5,750 I'm kinda suspect about that copy.. Looks like one of collectors comics' spine realignment experiment, but I could be wrong. Nevertheless, the book sold for a nice price Good eye - it does appear to have a reverse-spineroll going on

I think you're probably right. I can't believe what that book is going for already. What do you think of the price paid for that BB28 6.5 - seem like another jump?

People were already buying them up before the news - maybe this isn't news

Sure is. And lately it's become even more of an obsession, and can mean a huge price swing between a CR and a OW (or pray tell a W book) so it really can smack you in the wallet. I wish they would have a more scientific way to determine PQ, or if not, at least be more descriptive. I hear a brittle PQ could be assigned because a corner of a page is brittle. That could sink and entire book.

Wow Gator, how did you managed to accumulate so many BB28 in OW PQ. From my experience and what I have seen out there...the average BB28 PQ are cream/off white pages. I admit, I typically recall most SA dc keys as being cr/ow with ow or better being the minority... I have owned dozens of bb28 over the past few years....it is "strange" that the last 6 copies (and the current 3 I have) are all ow or better... I believe it could be the result of a few factors, maybe a softening of cgc pq stance I see. Maybe they're being a bit generous on the cream side. The OW designation will definitely be a plus. I'm still amazed to hear six copies in OW PQ. So many of my DC keys have cream/off-white pages I'd have a long (and expensive) road upgrading them to get OW pages. Not for nothing, but I've had plenty of cream books come back off-white to not obsess over it that much. Personally I think CGC is too free with the PQ designations. Why is it so inconsistent? Maybe they're finally being less harsher on the PQ for the late 50's to early 60's DC's. I had a few graded recently which had an OW PQ, but white pages are tough to score for these books. It sucks for people who have books that are OW in CR/OW slabs, considering it costs over a hundred bucks to get them regraded and CGC makes no concessions. I had a book that was upgraded on 2 resubs. That's a lot of money spend on slabs to get to the "right" grade. But I digress . . .

If you mean Heritage, yes they do.

I guess that was the price With the BP it's still higher than the highest recent sale of a 5.0 on GPA.

It wasn't long ago a 6.0 was a $1200-1300 book. It's definitely on the move.

Depends on how many B&B 28 fans out there like big fat ugly miswraps. Oh that's right, I can't afford it
