Figured there would be a barrage late. I survived the bidding war for the one on Comiclink last month so was not as aggressive.

DocGo Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 What grade do you think that is? The 8.5 I saw on ComicLink recently confused me, as I have an 8.5 qualified with one or two color breaking creases while the ComicLink copy had several more. Mine was graded back in 2007 so I’m just wondering how much has changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocGo Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 The 9.8 #1 that was supposedly sold on eBay for a $12k BIN (shortly after the big Heritage $13k sale) is back on eBay. I don’t currently have a GPA subscription but the 9.6 #1 that this same seller had also supposedly sold lingered on GPA for awhile, even after it came back to eBay. I don’t know what’s going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the numbering of his/her 9.8 and 9.6 books with one of them ending in 004, he could have had two each of both grades and didn’t take pics of both.

Greatwhite Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 (edited) https://www.ebay.com/itm/1994-DARK-HORSE-BONE-HAND-PAINTED-FIGURINE-BY-JEFF-SMITH-WITH-SMALL-PRINT-385/303904376811 Not shilling and not selling anything. Just passing along to anyone interested. This is a cool collectable for Bone fans. I bought one when they first came out but threw out the box and the figurine broke due to a pet incident. I have been checking eBay for a decade hoping to acquire one and now suddenly there were three listed for sale. I bought my replacement last week. Happy to have it back.

videoloop Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Those are great! I've got two of them...I did a deal with a guy recently who had one that's signed by Randy Bowen, the sculptor...it was a nice addition to the collection! I've got the Red Dragon and the bookends, as well as the Smiley Bone (he doesn't have a box or a tail..lol..gotta upgrade him!). I'm always on the hunt for the rest of them if anyone has one they want to unload! I wanted to let you guys know that I've started a Bone club on Clubhouse..if you're on there, go join! If you haven't tried the app yet, you should give it a go..it's a totally different experience than other social media platforms. I'll need a couple moderators for the group too...so shoot me a DM (I'm Scotty) if you'd like to be involved. DocGo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuddyBee Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Hey quick question, does anyone know, or know where I can find (at least a rough estimate) how many copies were printed of Bone 1-3 first print respectively? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s probably a good start but impossible to know. I attempted to ask Cartoon Books several years ago about the print runs of the first 11 issues but never got a response. Then again, 99.9% of all print runs are a complete mystery. HuddyBee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ralph Snart Posted March 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2021 Just got this in. Bought a NM copy 18 months ago and was hoping to squeeze out a 9.0 or 9.2. I sent it off to @Rich_Henn for a pressing before grading and he worked this book up to a 9.8. Rich is the $%#&ing man.

Greatwhite Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Ok, in the Spring there was a Bone 1 9.8 listed on eBay for $9999 that did not sell. Now there is a 9.6 listed for the same price and a 9.8 listed for 18,000$. Why the huge jump? Wishful thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocGo Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 That seller on eBay is questionable to me. Both his 9.6 and 9.8 were “sold” last year then were re-listed shortly afterwards with much higher prices. Could be a logical explanation to what happened but it’s all fishy to me. The $13k sale of the CGC 9.8 #1 on Heritage last year is an anomaly so far. Haven’t seen another #1 get to half that figure as of yet but the 8.5s-9.4s are doing very well.
