What's the LEAST amount of money you've paid for a slab?

55 posts in this topic

Yeah it's probably a ''I was hoping for a 9.8 and got a 9.4'' so here, I don't want it. The money lost on that is probably made up by the gain of others that were 9.8s.

 

One person's junk is another person's treasure.

Oh baby, I stole this BATO #1 last night :headbang:

 

Won this on ebay for only $16 plus postage.

 

This is the least I ever paid for a 9.8 that was going into my permanent collection. I only collect pre-1984 but had to have a copy of the first BATO issue.

99 cents plus $8 shipping

 

I bought that book mainly as a grading exemplar. The early BA book inside was probably worth $3-$5 raw.

 

Hence few other people were willing to spend $8.99 total for a mid-grade $3-$5 book just because it was in plastic, but I had other motives.

99 cents. Then I had to pay $7 shipping, so $7.99 if you're gonna be technical. :grin:

Yeah, me too... though most of the "el cheapo" slabs I buy to flip. :shy:

 

Some of my better-buys:

 

Amazing Spider-Man #182, 7.5 for $.99

Human Fly #1, 8.0 (for comparison sake only, of course) for $.99

Deathstroke #1, 9.0 for $1.99

Demon #5 (Kirby, B.A.), 8.5 for $4.81

Wierd Adventure Comics #432, 7.0 for $4.82

Defenders #19, 8.5 for $5

Amazing Spider-Man #175, 8.0 for $6.49

Human Fly #19 (Winnipeg), 9.6 for $7.50

DC 1st Issue Special #10, 9.4 for $9

Star Wars #46 (to relive one of the original 3 SW issues I had as a youngin'), 9.4 for $11

Kull the Conqueror #2, 9.2 for $12

 

I've scored many other "obscure" titles off CL in the $7-$14 range too... works for ME! (thumbs u

 

Cool topic... so, what else? :popcorn:

I picked up an X-men #1 gatefold cover in 9.8 for $9.99 and a Spider-man #9, Todd Mcfarlane issue in 9.8 for $5

 

Does the NIC Cage books I stole at his party count as free?
