G.A.tor Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I think this will just be the beginning of SC 22 to come out... if you think about it, a couple of months ago I was getting $1500 for 5.0's (where they previously were selling in the 750 range), and since then, 4.0's are getting 1750 +...so, that fact that there are a LOT of copies (albeit mainly lower grade) out there... many more will surface at the pace they are pricing!@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I hope you do not either. A well deserved fetch for a well deserved book. To me, it set a new 5 figure plateau for non-9.0 22s, and deservingly so. I love the book.

Well done peewee and detective27kid!. That's a record price for a 7.5. I really think a 7.5 should have been selling at least nm guide before all the movie hype. Also, SC22 is an undervalue silver age DC key for quite some time and is finally being noticed by both collectors and in investors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 I am so happy right now that I have 2 SC#22 in mid and higher grade Congratulations for being a holder of two high grade copies. If all the collectors hold their high grade copies, supply will be very scarce and prices will need to rise until more supplies surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 Hey 22 lovers....there is a 5.5 CGC Universal on ebay RIGHT NOW !! Looks like a gorgeous copy....let the war begin! And it's not mine. Linky... http://cgi.ebay.com/Showcase-22-1st-app-Green-Lantern-DC-1959-CGC-5-5_W0QQitemZ200378585447QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2ea77e9167&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 I have a SC 22 at cgc now that might be in the 5.5 range...will be watching this one closely! But remember, if it is only CR/OW page quality then it is worth half of the price of an OW copy when you list the price for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was holding off on all of the 5.0s in that price range last year waiting for a FN and then happened to miss the couple of nicer copies that were auctioned.

I passed since I had already snagged a 5.0 from Brian/foolkiller that week, but my gut instinct was screaming to buy it. Good thing I was rational and passed.

dikran Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Maybe I won't go after this 5.5 and actually pull a Costanza and do the opposite of what my gut is telling me... I gotta learn to just be patient for once and hopefully the market will start getting saturated with decent copies. At least I have my low grade copy to keep me satisfied for now.
