Sqeggs Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Not one of my favorite Bakers, but I think I'm gradually being pulled into getting all of his St John covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still very happy with the grade on this one considering what I got it for. SWEET! Congrats on the grade! szucchini 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for me thinking I had a shot at it for under $8K. I'm sticking with my copy. I can't imagine it going higher. But you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I was the lucky fellow who sold a 5.0 in December 2015 for $1,818. I bought it raw for $1,750 and after pressing and grading fees and ComicConnect's commission, I lost money on it. Tough to lose money on an SS 4 in recent years, but I managed it!

I got plans for Saturday night around here, so looks like the Sunday show is the day I’d be going. At this point, I’m torn and a bit unsure about making the trek.
