Boba Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 second tier books like that or SC #4 do not deserve to be discussed in the SC #22 thread. It is the FF #1 of SA DCs. It's ok, being a DC'er most my life, I'm used to the abuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase22gr1959 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Set up your own SC #23 and SC #24 thread if you want to talk about it.......second tier books like that or SC #4 do not deserve to be discussed in the SC #22 thread. Let's cheer DC's. Keep the focus.......there are just as many crappy DC books as Marvel. All I say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) Somebody just listed this today if anyone needs and upgrade. Showcase 22 CGC 5.0 cream pages. http://cgi.ebay.com/Showcase-22-Oct-1959-CGC-5-0-First-silver-Green-lantern-/190496169112?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5a74dc98 Edited January 30, 2011 by showcase22gr1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I was looking at that. Doesn't it seem high considering the cream pages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 It's an old label. Since it's not light tan/off-white pages, it has a shot for a cream to off-white pages. Nice looking 5.0 according to the scan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Well, it's an auction-style listing, so we'll have to wait and see Interesting that these are starting to come out of hiding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) The last recorded 5.0 sale is on 8/10 for $3K and it definitely will be interesting to see if a record price for a 5.0 will happen with just one bid.

Boba Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Might be a good selling strategy, a red-hot key, scarce in grades higher than 4.5, listed auction-style on ebay with a starting price just outside the edge of reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 This one happen to be price in means. Did you notice his other books are price out of line and very high. He price the SC22 5.0 out of line with the OSPG and happen to be near FMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old label 5.0 with cream just might be a CR/OW 5.5 and a steal at $3600 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old label 5.0 with cream just might be a CR/OW 5.5 and a steal at $3600 Interesting copy, and I hardly see a "cream" designation on SC22. I wonder what happen to the SC22 6.0 lt copy.

Masamune69 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 eBay have discount on auction style item this week end if I remember well. The guy probably list his items higher than he thinks they costs. He have nothing to loose. However I do think the SC22 he is selling will be sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimik Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share Posted January 31, 2011 Based on my experience in resubbing old label books, it will come back as a CR/OW. If the bends/creases on the right side visible in the pics are pressable, then it has a good shot at a 5.5 as well (and on the right day maybe a 6.0)..........

Now only if you can see in hand to make the call. It's a tough call. My other book's a 4.5, OW/W, so it's VERY close. If resubbed and nothing changed, it's only a .5 bump in grade and a drop in PQ. I was really hoping for a 6.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
