yeah ive been looking at gpa for the last few days and prices for restored in the 2.5-3.0 are everywhere....when i get there ill be looking around when i have time and arent at the booth ...of couse ill get some advice from mrbedrock...( who has a copy just WAY out of my league )

 

 

is bedrock going to be there

I should have 3 of 4 copies, but no cheap ones

...

I think most restored copies will cost you 2K more, just because of the restoration cost added onto the low grade comic cost...

you might be able to find a decent low grade in the sub 2K range... especially at heroes

 

That is a very good point. My two reader copies are likely in that price range, but restoration costs would make them more expensive in higher grades. I guess the best deal on a restored copy is for one that approaches 9.0 but began much lower.

 

I wish you well in finding one c-mack. This points out that I have to decide whether spending more to restore one will help at all to sell it. Night,

if you are willing to spend 2200-2300 you can get an unrestored 1.5 with no chips that might present well

By chance were you listening to that? They didn't receive any new bids when they asked, and after a pause they declared it closed at $3500 I believe. Well I had a bid in, one and two increments higher than that. So my page changed to show me as the winner at my $3750 bid and they closed bidding for it. Then after a pause someone stopped the auctioneer from going to the next one and opened the bidding again. Oh well, those last few higher bidders almost got caught sleeping. I almost got it for about $4500. What were they doing there?

I watched it...seems like they got in late bids 2x after it had closed

Screwy, and the blue 5.0 went for $7000 IIRC, plus 18%. I was on the phone with eBay at the time about the four man fraud team. eBay is friendly these days, but they don't work hard enough to stop the crooks.

Check out this HA.com page while it is new. The item page for the AF15 9.0 shows today's sale, and the initial sale of the same book at a different price. In the current auction similar items, of the three AF15's, two sold today and this one has two different selling prices. Very odd system, HA is about the best, but...
