Marvelfangirl Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Why thank you. I'm working on completeing this small run in 9.0 or better. I'm thinking it will take me a couple of years because of the cost. Love the different covers on this run. I used to have a GL/GA #76 a long time ago,I'm thinking of buying the issue for my personal collection.Hope you complete your set (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Looks like things are heating up for GL back issues from dealer sites as well. Worldwide Comics is now sold out of most of the early issues they had available a couple of weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have already been squeezed as far as they can go based on what I saw from them in San Diego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimik Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Yes. There were a couple of slabbed issues that must have had major corner impact crunches since the pancaking did not totally flatten them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Daddy Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 Why is it whenever I decide on a title it starts to heat up? Why can't they stick with the Avengers being hot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Collect Atom or Aquaman, then. Those titles are deader than doornails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can add Sea Devils, Hawkman, Metal Men, Doom Patrol, Challengers of the Unknown, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, Superboy and a lot of others to the list as well.

etanick Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I am interested in buying a low grade GL #1. What would be a reasonable price for something in the grade of 3 to 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I am not sure right now. You used to be able to land them for below guide in almost every grade below 8.0, but I am not certain now. That being said, with guide at $700 or a smidge higher in VG I would expect someplace between $400 - $600 should do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sea Devils went for very strong prices when Mark Wilson sold some on eBay a couple of years ago, and the prices in the Mound City auction weren`t bad at all. Metal Men, particularly #1, goes for amazingly strong prices given the number of ultra-HG copies in the Census. Top census pre-1963 Jimmy Olsens were routinely going for well over 10X Guide, and sometimes more than 20X Guide, last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comments were based on what I have seen setting up at cons and selling on eBay personally. I have had HG runs of those titles from 2 OO collections that sold below guide even slabbed. I could not even give away the HG Doom Patrol run at 50% of guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
