Showcase #22 Club 14 14

[kimik]

You should all sell now before it is too late! ( in the hopes that flooding the market will drive down prices with the movie hype gone and I can pick up a keeper 7.0 copy for $4 - $5 K).

 

Rich or I would bid ONE more dollar than you...

 

I am always happy to get outbid when prices are dropping.

 

As Confucius says: It is better to pick up the knife from the floor after it has cut off the fingers of the person trying to catch it on the way down.

I just don't see a 7.0 (even a soft eye appeal) in the $4-5K ever again...unless sold for less than FMV. SC22 in 7.0 (upper HG) is where the prices jump tremendously. The last recorded 7.0 was in late 2010 for $9K. At $4-5k.. buy like mad. A BB28 in 7.0 recently sold for $6500...and SC22 7.0 is worth more.

showcase22gr1959, I have to say, even though SC22 is not on my personal want list, I admire your research efforts.

[Submariner]

Yes! I agree that its quite admirable the work you put in to keep this info out and help transparency.

[showcase22gr1959]

Thanks guys. This list started in summer of 2009 and still going.....

[Submariner]

Kudos showcase22gr1959!

 

 

Cant wait for page 500!!!

 

But please dont pull a Dc and start it back at 1

I'm waiting for the list to be long enough to fill one whole page.

Right at the beginning of the big speculative run up. (thumbs u

 

It will be interesting to see how things trend if you keep the list going for another year or two. My guess is a pull back like some of the Marvel movie-related SA keys, but probably not too bad overall.

[Flash105]

But that pullback should be a signal to buy for any collector who has been waiting.

Somebody should do a graph.

Or collectors that played the run up and are looking to get back in. (thumbs u

[ComicConnoisseur]

Btw showcase 22 doesnt need a movie for it to accrue in value or to sell!

Its a silver key with a great cover and origin story.

 

 

I liked the movie found it entertaining especially in 3D!

 

Much better than dd, ff1 and 2 and ghost rider. I own dd1 and ff1. Not reaaly into bronze though. Did not like those movies.

 

Oh yeah! if Green lantern doesnt make a profit... I ll put my money where my mouth is and buy any naysayers tickets to Green Lantern 2: rise of the sinestro corps!

Looks like GL will barely catch DD at the boxoffice saleswise,but will fail to catch both FF and even Ghost Rider at the boxoffice saleswise which to me is shocking.

 

From Boxoficemojo:

"Green Lantern's downward spiral worsened, and the superhero movie's now dimming faster than Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. It plummeted 64 percent to an estimated $6.5 million, falling behind the older Super 8, which made an estimated $7.8 million. In 18 days, Green Lantern has grossed $103.7 million or just a bit more than what Transformers: Dark of the Moon did in its first three days. Super 8 stood at $110.1 million in 25 days."

At least there is a nice GPA graph. Maybe I'll do a SC22 graph in the future.

HA! This is excellent! Thank you for the link (thumbs u I am a huge Green Lantern fan and the movie COULD have been such a hit. It was ok to watch, mainly out of interest and curiosity but I couldn't watch it again. It just hurts too much seeing how they killed a perfect concept. Anyway, that dude is on the spot with everything that went wrong.
