All the Archie's are going nuts. 

I got several of them, including the pricey 53.

Nice buys.  Not much flying under the radar these days.

I got most of the ones I wanted on eBay tonight (5 out of 6 Archie's I went for) but no matter what insanely high bid I put on one of them I can never win it.  I have always known it was a monster in the making and it just keeps getting higher and higher. B & V 40- 6.0  runner-up at $768  

AAUGH!! 

I forgot to watch that one at the end.  Just as well since I wasn't going that high ... although maybe I should have since my copy came back recently with LT pages.

What grade did you get?

Good question.  I was disheartened by the pq and stuck it in a box so I didn't have to look at the darn thing.  I think the grade was decent -- 5.0 or 6.0 maybe?   I'll have to dig it out and check.

No matter how hard I try this is the best I've been able to do.

I was watching all those too.  Advantage buyer on the B & V 10 for sure and that 40 is getting out of sight. The Archie 53 went for 4x gpa.  

When I saw the unboxing video I knew it was going to explode. Was thinking a boardie would get it

Picked this up on a thread here last week. Came in yesterday. I definitely like it. 

 

That copy looks like it has a lot of gloss on it.  I had a copy but it was not even close as glossy.

When I saw how high that BV40 went for I immediately did a search and 10 minutes later picked up this beater thru a buyitnow for $74.  It's got problems but I had to have one before they're impossible to get.

Way to kick a guy when he's down fellas! I've been focusing on my Archie run and neglecting the other titles and now it seems that I am getting priced out of some issues. That never used to happen with Archie titles...no one used to want them!

I think you did the right thing. Mine is probably 4.5. I have been going after a high or even mid grade copy for 2 years and made strong bids. Never enough.

Picked up four books this evening from tonight's sellmycomics lot. I did lose out on a fifth in the last second. Still, pretty pleased.

Sorry, here you go. Would love to have these in higher grade, but all 4 of these were missing from my collection (and when you have as few holes as my collection does, it's rare to knock off four at once).

*pics are from eBay so best I have for now.

All WHITE pagers too!! Nice.

My copies should be in by the end of the week and I will scan and post too.

Everybody was kung fu fighting.  I ponied up for two tasty items myself.
