Rick has just offered his 6.5 on the sales thread.

 

Curious to see when it´ll sell.........hm

not so much a 'when" but at what price... I like Richard's 7K value, though :)

 

Everyone with a SC#22 does. Whatever the grade is :D

 

Prices seem to stay strong, even on low-low grades. If yours sells around that money, it´ll continue lifting the price into new heights.

best offer so far is $5K...so we can "assume" that is the floor to perceived value of the copy hm

 

hm This means SC#22 is at least at the same price level as AS#1.........even quite higher and if yours sells at 7k........even a lot higher.. :cloud9:

 

There are over 1500 graded copies of AS#1 and 246 graded SC22, so SC22 is more scarce. 142 collectors and investors can own a AS#1 above 6.5 and only 22 collectors and investors will be able to with SC22. It's really a supply and demand issue here with SC22. As I have mention before, the Mound City copy will set a major tone for high grade SC22. 2c

AS #1 (of course, AF #15 is a much better comparable) has been in high demand for 30+ years, SC 22 has been in high demand for two months.

high demand, yes, recently it has exploded...but, there has always been good demand for "high grade" (just not very many examples out there to create a reg. market)...

I think this has always held back DC Silver age to some degree. There are just not enough copies of HG keys for the most part to ever get the market excited about the books.

I thought it would go higher.......

 

Seems like a very, very good price, compared to other recent sales.

At least we do know Comic Link gets better prices on 3.0's. As I have thought...there is not a lot of upside in the short term for copies under 4.0. hm

We are also likely seeing an initial plateau after most collectors who have wanted a copy for a while now went out and grabbed one. It will be interesting to see how prices hold as more copies enter the market.

With the weak US dollar and interests from overseas collectors and investors, take this opportunity to add a position for the long term if it pulls back a little. ;)

Are you sure they went for those prices? After all they were all sold to one boardy and via PM. He might have gotten the books for a better price (shrug)

I'm also very surprised of the the low grade copies available in the market recently and there is still an insatiable demand for this book...really unbelievable. There are non-believers out there about the popularity of SC22, so the sell figures will speak for itself.
