The WD thread in CG is something else.

 

I found it particularly funny when joe_collector turned on rfoiii, but I think they were both on the same "side" of the arguement!

 

lol

 

Additionally, you cannot discuss the importance of one without the other, they are intrinsically linked. Arguing otherwise is ridiculous, tenement to denying the existence of algebra or chemistry.

 

Wow, it looks like Zombie Einstein's crawled out of his crypt and joined the discussion. lol

 

Next up, we won't be able to discuss valuation without eBay, right?

 

Like I said, the print run of a comic book, taken as a single factor, means absolutely nothing to a comic's market value. Absolutely nothing, and that is a verified fact.

 

Only when linked with a myriad of other factors does it even start to have an effect, and in the statement I was quoting, the OP was all over the "low print runs" like by itself, it was the be-all, end-all of "high comic prices. Which it isn't.

Nobody ever responded to the fact that I would take all the WD #1 9.8's over the mid grade Action #1.

 

JoeCollector said anybody that would do so is an insufficiently_thoughtful_person, but as a businessman, I would love to control the entire market :cloud9:

 

546 copies at say $1750 per = $955,500

 

7.5 Action #1 = $1,000,000

 

Give me the WD #1's any freaking day and let's see if any sell for less than 5k a piece :cloud9:

It's not a bad idea. But that's only the universal. To truly corner the market, you'd have to grab the SSs, too.

That's when reprints start going for $500...

 

Plus, a true sign of any limited supply with high demand: COUNTERFEITS!

 

Good point. With 9.8s hitting $2k, I'm surprised counterfeits haven't popped up like they did for other Indy books in the past.
