G.A.tor Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 So does anyone anticipate SC#22 ever being worth as much as SC#4 Any thoughts it is already worth more in some circles... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted April 21, 2011 Author Share Posted April 21, 2011 Do you guys think Green Lantern #1 is going to bump up from the movie hype as well? SC22 was a little out of my price range but I was able to get a fair copy of GL 1 off of eBay last month for $300. It's my first Silver Age key, so I'm pretty thrilled with it. GL #1 has definitely benefited from the movie hype. The funny thing about GL #1 is that the supply of 7.0+ copies that was there 2 - 3 years ago has dried up just like the other SA DC keys. I am beginning to wonder whether I should go ahead with my planned sale of my last copy (7.0) closer to the movie or hold on to it a bit longer.

I don't know if they are more scarce, but the market is not the strongest right now so fewer copies are trading hands. SC #22 was in the same boat just a couple of years ago........

Dark Knight Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I think Showcase #4 will bounce back soon seeing that there are not many copies out in the market. The reason why we are seeing all these SC #22's is because of the movie hype. I also think the movie has something to do with the increases in price as it is with any other superhero movie.

showcase22gr1959 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 (edited) Actually...with all these superheroes movies...yeah, top SA keys all have been doing quite well. This holds well for the whole SA market. Let's hope for the success of the GL movie and will lead to more DC movies. SA Key Marvels are much more plentiful than SA DC keys, so DC has the highest potential appreciation. A bunch of non-comic collectors I know saw the new trailer and are very excited to check it out. I would not under estimate the power the ring. Edited April 22, 2011 by showcase22gr1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to admit...SC4 has been the laggard, but is picking up steam. Scarce in supply doesn't always quantify demand. Price point per grade recorded sales, SC4 is still the most valuable SA DC, followed by SC22 and BB28. Demand wise would be SC22 and close followed by BB28 and then SC4.

I'm sure if the price is too good...bye bye to your GL1 Edited April 22, 2011 by showcase22gr1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeddieMercede Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 It's only a matter of time until the next DC book picks up a bit of steam after BB 28. Whether it involves movie hype or whatever many of the early DC Silver Keys are still underpriced compared to their counterparts. Once the flippers/speculators get involved all the fun begins for those who seem to revel in hyping up books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, i am sure SC#4 would bounce back with stronger sale prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think it was only about 2+ years ago that a SC#22 could be had for around guide (or even less). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree to this order of demand, and maybe its just me but it seems that BB#28 isn't real close to SC#22. Or am i wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
