So what do you think the Action#1 CGC1.8 will go for in next CC auction??

[G.A.tor]

 

Just when I thought we might get a break from Action 1 prediction threads.....

 

What else were you planning to do over the next month or so, take part in real life stuff ??

 

No doubt, but I was actually hoping to read something here about comics other than price guessing on Action 1 threads.

 

But, as they say, your mileage may vary...

 

come on big boy, put your guestimate in

[fishbone]

Anyone know the history on this one?? Gator?? Stephen??

[Dark Knight]

It's also interesting to note on the label how it is light tan to offwhite pages. I always think that the range of page quality would be the next step above the outer portion of the page.. Like cream - offwhite or offwhite - white. I've never seen cream - white pages.

only that S said it was a OO issue

[showcase4]

Something I never understood (and it pertains to this copies PQ )

 

How can there be "Cream to Off-White" and "Light Tan to Off-White"

Wouldn't "Light Tan to Cream" make more sense???

I posted the same question a minute before yours

[fishbone]

Dark Knight and Showcase-4 -- great minds think alike, but this is ridiculous....

[G.A.tor]

if the edges are light tan, and then the books gets progressively better, as in the middle of the book is ow, then you note it as such...lt tan to ow...

[buttock]

PQ describes the spectrum seen on a book. If the edges are tan and the center is white, you can get a "tan to white", theoretically. "Cream to off white" does not imply a single quality, but rather a spectrum.

 

That being said, this copy is not pretty and has iffy paper. If the copy on Clink (much much greater appeal) brought $80K, then I'd put this one at $60-70K.

Why do we only see "brittle" or "slightly brittle" from CGC .. what about "brittle to OW" ??

Maybe the pages are sorta like a Twinkie.Golden Tan on the outside[edges] and white in the middle [of the pages] that would explain it.

ahhhhh, I see

Dan is always right, so I go with his prediction also

Where were you when I started the Action 1 6.0 price thread?

we have long discussed that same thing... I have had an otherwise Ow paged book that was just slightly brittle at the spine on a few wraps... I would like to see a better notation used by cgc on Pq , especially when it comes to degrees (like you can have a book that is slightly brittle on all corners, versus one that is only slightly brittle on one wrap)... falls into the slight, vs Mod vs Ext "catch all" notation too

yeah, but he posted his response after I posted mine, so he probably just copied me in his more educated voice

I voted, but I'd already said something like $325 or $350K in the other thread.
