It's a CGC 9.2 signed by Eastman.  Also have a 3rd print that's coming in this week also, lol thankfully I didn't pay the crazy prices they're going for now.

Something seems off about all  these rocketing prices on these . Same thing is happening with Miles Morales books and modern Knull variants . It’s not healthy growth imo. As much as I want to believe comic collecting is healthy asa hobby I feel like money being poured in will fizzle out . These raw copies in second and third print selling for multiple thousands over night is ridiculous .

There are a lot of comics, mostly keys, that have followed this path. AF 15, Hulk 1, top pre-code horror covers, some move speculation issues, etc. They explode seemingly overnight, then pull back 10-20%, then plateau in price for years.

Could someone explain to me what this guy is selling? Is it essentially a modern reprint of the infamous gold edition version, and worth like $5-$10 lol. Or is it legitimately worth around what he's asking? https://www.ebay.com/itm/174191436059?ul_noapp=true

@LDarkseid1  I can provide all the details and background about this if you want to post this again over in the Official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles thread.  Just so we stay on topic here in this thread with TMNT #1. :smile:

Very true, and not that you implied this but just to point out, the pull back wasn’t overnight. Didn’t happen for many years with AF15, and as I recall happened about 2 years or so after the initial explosion with Hulk 1. Not sure about the pre-code horrors. So definitely won’t deny it may or likely will happen at some point, but won’t be for a while. The supply is just soo super low on the 1st and 2nd print to so that should play a role.

Just curious, if anyone has an idea what the right price to pay for a blue label 9.2 copy in today's crazy new prices.

Thanks in advance,

Old_Dano

 

I don't have any recent, crazy town, prices for 9.2's but using 9.0's as your guide the last two sales were $14,995 just on 7/29/20 and $14,375 on 5/20/20.  I think old-dano's target of 20K is a good starting point. But don't take less than 16 or 17, imho.
