Thanks. Sad to see it go but felt it was the right time to sell.

Totally. I think you did great! You could buy a nice silver-age key with the 2k.

 

Love the series...I jumped onboard right after the 1st trade came out. The #1 was tough to grab even then. It's always the first book I read whenever it hits the stand!

Yes, it definitely was since there is about to be 2 more 9.9 in the census that are SS books. That book is losing its LONG title run as the best WD #1 in existence.

 

I LOVE the series but when I see 2K I think that's a 1.5/1.8 Amazing Fantasy #15 or a 2.0/2.5 HULK #1.

 

Great sale for you!!!

Egg-zactly! I'm no modern-hater, but these kind of sales always baffle me.

 

But I've got nothin' but love for the seller. If you can grab the coin, then go get 'em!

When I see 2K, I think a 9.2 Cerebus #1 - but, hey, to each his own

 

Btw, correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't both 9.9 SS copies of WD #1 owned by 1st-and-keys (one of which just sold)?

[Evil Uncle]

Nice job on that sale.

I find it more difficult to find a nice copy of WD #2 then #1.

Thanks again guys, but I only owned the blue label copy that just sold, the other two SS copies are not mine. I purchased it shortly after the series came out for 12 bucks on ebay. I just lucked out on the grade.

166.67% profit margin... can't beat that!

[Lebowski]

Move the decimal point two places to the right.

[Boozad]

ca.n't beat that

[Bosco685]

Actually, he is right.

 

The formula would be (Realized Sales-Investment/Investment) and this gives you the final realized multiple above or below your investment.

 

When I did it Excel had a percentage error, which is what you probably saw where it showed four figures before the decimal versus three.

What?

What?

He realized a 166% increase in his investment, but when you do this in Excel and change the field to a %, Excel initially will experience an error and show 16,567%, which would mean he had to sell a book for $20K to achieve this.

 

Gotta love Microsoft solutions.

He actually received 166.66X his initial investment. I'm no statistician, but, that is not the same as a 166.66% increase.

You round up and 165.67% is 166%. $2,000 - $12/$12 = 165.67%

 

But you are right - you are no statistician (or basic math expert).

[Lebowski]

I dunno, dude...

Well, considering a 166.66% increase would have meant that he sold it for around 32 bucks, I think I get it well enough.

Just had to bust your onions a little since you are oh so good at dishing it out.
