That's what I thought at first. They are on the bag as well in the same spots. I contacted CGC about it. I assume they will reholder for free. 

I'm not too bad with certain scratches on the slab, but that detracts from the book.

I would reholder.

Wish my 8.0 looked as nice as your book though.

 The next auction (Heritage?) in November should give us a more realistic view as to what this book will sell for on the open market. Personally I think it will sell for less than $90k...somewhere in the high 60’s to low 70’s...

I’m also thinking along those lines, $60K-$70k. Happy to see in mid $70s thought👍

have second prints been going up higher recently?  might pick one up soon.

They have definitely gone up. I put one up for BIN a little while ago with a fantasy asking price and it sold right away. That was a while back and they continue to sell like crazy.

Wow, I wonder what’s driving this demand.

Massive, sudden escalation on first prints prices people out so they turn to next best thing. I think second prints are still well underpriced compared to where they will be in a year or two.

So the 9.8 that sold at auction on HA appears to not be in their buy it now section any longer. However if you view the auction itself it shows the previously shown message "owner is actively entertaining offers.." with the previous $117k starting price. To any HA experts, what does this indicate?

There isn’t much to parse from that information.     If you have your settings turned on to ‘considering offers’ (which is the default btw, you have to opt out) then it will show the items you win as ‘entertaining offers’  at a minimum of 30% above what you paid.    Is this case 130% of 90k is 117k

The "other" 9.8 is at auction on Heritage and it's at $25,200 for now (including buyer's premium). In case you've been living underground in the sewers (:bigsmile:) you'll recall that the previous 9.8 sold this summer for a whopping $90,000 also on Heritage. We'll see where this 9.8 ends up but I believe the sale prices will mimic the turtlemania golds of recent yore.  On ebay right now #6/10 is at $41K with 1 day remaining. This past summer #7/10 sold for $58K. I think collectors final bids will be similar in these books and the 9.8's hammer price on Heritage will behave in a similar fashion.

That is strange. The seller must have gotten an offer off ebay and just sold it directly to avoid fees. It happens all the time.

 

The 9.8 is up to $31,200 as I write this.

 

Someone sent this to me, it's a way to view past offers on already-sold items at Heritage. There have been 3 offers recently around the time of and since the 90K sale, 48k, 48k and 67.5k. I'd adjust my guess for the one at auction now as somewhere between 68k and 90k.
