im small potatoes

 

but thank you.

 

as for the Blue CGC 2b, there is a 9.8 on eBay right now. i have yet to see a 9.6 for sale since i started collecting them over the summer.

[retrothecollector]

I see it!!!!

 

3 Questions.

 

1.Even though it says second printing, it's still technically a first print right?

2. Just like the black label and white label #1?

3. Which one would be worth more Nov. or Feb.?

[ThoseBackPages]

no, its the second printing.

There are usually less second printings for a comic then firsts.

that being said, first prints will always be "worth" more due to more demand.

 

[The Walking Dead]

Feb. cover date is a second printing as far as I knew.

[retrothecollector]

Looks like that one on ebay is the more expensive one.

[alaskanwonder]

Feb. cover date is a second printing as far as I knew.

 

The Feb. printing is definitely a second print. I have both the first and second printings of Walking Dead #2, and you can clearly tell the difference by looking at the cover.

 

The only books you cannot tell a difference between are the 2nd prints of Walking Dead 7 & 8. The covers are the same, the printing months are also identical. The only way to differentiate a 1st from a 2nd printing is to look inside the front cover for the print run which will read either 1st or 2nd.

Well thank god I understand that info....

 

So the question of the day is.....

Is that one on ebay worth that price, knowing that it's a second print?

, it's about $168 too high for me. I wouldn't pay more than $400 for a second printing. I think first prints are selling in the 7-8 hundred range.

[retrothecollector]

What would a raw "second print" cost? And so the WD#2 weekly is the third printing?

I got a #2 9.6 SS Moore & Kirkman for $400.....So a blue label 9.8 would be $700-$800?.....Do you think I got a good deal? I think so.....Your thoughts

It's all subjective really. I would tell you a raw #2 second print would cost around $100-150 in pristine condition but there are others who will tell you a different amount.

Ryan, do not bother with the Weekly's

[retrothecollector]

Ryan, do not bother with the Weekly's

 

I know man. But, this is what happened, I really wanted a raw copy of Wd 1 weekly, just because I wanted it for my collection. They are jacking up prices of that book on the bay. I couldn't find one for less than $75. So I bought that lot of WD weekly 1-4. I will sell 2-4 and make some money back. I just wanted #1, just because. I'm somewhat of an impatient man.

[ThoseBackPages]

i hear you. but you've gotta be SOMEWHAT patient. believe me, i know what your talking about.

Yeah that's a sweet deal!

[ThoseBackPages]

if i were ever to pick up a yellow label, it would have to be:

 

#1 - 6: signed by RK/TM/CR/

 

7 - 24: signed by RK/TM/CR/CA

 

#25 on signed by RK/CA/CR

 

if a book is going to be signed, it should be signed by everyone that worked on it.
