    I was including restored in my quote, but yes - unrestored well north of 100K
  3. fishbone
    Entry level, complete Tec 27's (even coverless) would start at $100K (at least) ........

    how about one with no chance of resto removal? ever gonna happen ?
  7. fishbone
    ...........seriously though, when and under what conditions could we, or would we ever, see a $1 million sale for a restored mega-key ? I remember when $317K (was that the number?) was the top price for a blue Action #1, and now there are multiple examples of $1M + sales of unrestored mega GA books. Could it ever happen ?
  8. fishbone
    I think best case scenario for an extensive professional mega-key would be more like 30-ish % of equivalent unrestored ..... but it certainly is a bit of an art trying to put values on restored GA

    I'm not going to say who, but I can confirm as a generality this sort of thing has been offered to me in the past, plus other incentives.

    Golden Age mega-keys can go for much closer (25-30%) to unrestored blue prices .... AF15's blues grow on trees, so thus low hammers on restored

    what did it sell for please ? ..... link is now not active Thanks

    I think the grade took into account the detached cover, so your 1.5 should be worth what a 1.5 should be worth

    Wow ..................................

    The three I posted above cost me a grand total of $17K Canadian (purchased from 2008-2010 and Canadian dollar was pretty close to being on par with USD) ..... so yeah, so glad I pulled the trigger when I did. I did think at the time that the prices were nuts, guess I did alright as it stands today.

    Updated photo of all 3 together and graded … proud papa ….
  19. fishbone
    no doubt

    excellent point .... but I actually feel the "gravy" gets thrown on auctioned key books on here regardless of whether consignor is known or not; it is a favourite pastime of many on these Boards over the years I've noticed

    Just be careful on those stairs please

    he doesn't share which books he has ...... I've called him out on this, and he gave a reasonable answer regarding privacy/risk of robbery/etc., so I don't think we'll get the answer here

    GA grail books ........ 10% to 25% lower than same-graded, O/W copy GA books ....... 50% of same-graded, O/W copy

    trust me, give me AF15's and Hulk 181's all day - couldn't care less about a rug! Plus, I don't need the Dude's problems !
