kimik Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 My question re: GL #7 is how high it might go next year closer to the movie. The price on that eBay 3.0 is a shocker, but it might be a better barometer of wider market appeal than Clink or any of the other auction sites. This issue has always been a tough book to find in any shape, and we could see a nice run up again next year closer to the movie. Right now the action on it seems similar to Showcase #22 in that the speculators and longtime collectors that have been sitting on the fence are now snagging a copy before the real hype hits. I will pizz myself laughing if 3.0s hit $500 next year, but it does not seem as far fetched of an idea now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, Ebay has a wider audience, and books can be sold more quickly. There are quite a bit of GL fans right now to support the prices. GL 7 will no doubt do well when the GL movie releases, but for the long term, SC22 is a better book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that SC #22 is the better book, but GL #7 can be had for much cheaper due to lack of widespread awareness and represents a better flipping opportunity than SC #22 right now. The lack of awareness on SC #22 ended last August/September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
