peewee22 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 this thread keeps on going! No doubt SH22 is a hot commodity right now. As for current and future values, IMO there is still room to expand price wise. This book has been cheap for too long compared to other DC and Marvel keys. But I caution against too much price appreciation, and of it happening too fast. SHould the movie collapse, it reverts to just another minor characters first appearance (minor compared to the pantheon of already worldwide media superstars Bat SUpe SPidey XMen FF Hulk IronMan etc). and then theres the DC price ceiling. Only a 9.4 or maybe a 9.2 will crack the "truly extraordinary" price levels possible for this book. But there ought to be money to be made (even on paper for true collectors) as this undervalued key finally catches up to its comparable DC keys (Flash 105, BB28, SH4, etc? I agree with aman (to a cetain extent). The Mound copy sale will give us a good indication of where 22s are headed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually was thinking about this for a while...I just wanted to be fair and let everyone have a chance. As of today, the list will only contain CGC 6.0 and above copies only, since this is the only way to verify it's a 6.0 or higher (not trying to say it's not a 6.0+). Get your copies graded and if it score a 6.0 and above, we will include it here. ---Updated list 9/05/09 ---- Top high grade sales and holders of CGC Showcase 22: 9.0 Heritage auction ow 9.0 ComicLink auction ow 8.5 Nicolas Cage Heritage auction crm/ow 8.5 Doc Joe from threads crm/ow 8.0 Mound City crm/ow (4th copy not in CGC census yet) 8.0 Metropolis Comics private sale 8.0 Private collector crm/ow 7.5 Peewee from threads ow/w 7.5 Palamas from threads crm/ow 7.0 SilverRich from threads crm/ow 7.0 Heritage auction crm/ow 7.0 ComicLink crm/ow 7.0 ComicLink lt/ow 6.5 ComicLink ow/w 6.5 ComicLink ow 6.5 ComicLink crm/ow 6.0 Showcase22gr1959 from thread white 6.0 M.

If someone wanted to keep another list of potential raw copies out there there's nothing wrong with that either. I'm not sure mine would get a 6.0...I've always considered it a 5ish book with a shot at 6.0. Only one way to find out, but I currently have no plans to have it graded.
