How much $ would a CGC 9.8 copy of Action Comics #1 sell for?

[Mr 9.8]

I know some near mint copies have sold at close to a million dollars so I was wondering [font:Arial Black] IF [/font] a CGC 9.8 copy of Action#1 were slabbed and put up for sale how much could it sell for? & who would buy it? My guess is that in this economy at best it would sell for 2 millon. (& yes I'm board)

So many hypothetical situations.....so little time......

Was it hypothetically pressed?

Don't you be givin' no Loch Ness monster no tree-fiddy!!

[bronzilla]

Moot question but fun to think about

 

SOMEONE would pay over 5 mil easy

[RockMyAmadeus]

It's like asking what someone would pay for an MS70 1804 $1....

9.8 wouldnt matter in the final analysis. there arent 4 copies above 9.0 in existence to create a price ramp.

In the current climate....a 9.8 W of Action 1 is 10 million easy.

why? the best copy will still be the best copy even if its a 9.2. Sure paying extra for a 9.8 would ensure a better copy would NEVER come along... but for an extra 5-6 million? Thats a lot to blow for an eventuality that will never happen, except in this fictional universe where a 9.8 exists! : )

[thedude]

isn't the Allentown TEC #27 rumored to be a 9.6? so anything is possible I guess.

My guess, what would it take for these few pages of kiddy pictures bound, slabbed and auctioned to transcend the hobby to get to the actual money men who pay 50 mill for a piece of art?

 

The pool is limited as it is, the material is not taken seriously to those who have the limitless bankrolls, relative to the prized pieces in the Met. What combination of event would need to take place to make the best comic book a star attraction in the world of fine art?

 

Why is the single best comic a 1 or 2 mill object, while a Jackson Pollock # 5 is a 150 mill, and looks like a canvas with a thousand layersof silly string on it, imho?

You summed it all up right there. It's not a 9.2. It's not a 9.4. It's not a 9.6.

 

It's a CGC 9.8

 

The chance that a better copy would EVER surface = zero

 

 

Sky's the limit.
