PLOD! Not bad though

 

I still can't beleive the AF#15 sold for $122k

[sfilosa]

Do you think that's too much or too little?

 

If this book had been Unrestored it probably would sell for between $15-20K.

 

So the seller got less than 10% of the value.

 

But in this case, I believe the price to be somewhat justified.

 

Based on the information provided (and that pieces were added), it's quite possible that this book would grade no higher than a VF (if unrestored). Obviously, I don't know that for a fact, but I'm guessing here. In that case the seller got around 60-70% of the books market value.

 

Not great (it would have been better not to restore the book), but not unreasonable.

Is that the scan on the TRC, or has the resto fallen off

[g-man]

i think it is a great price especially if the seller decides to crack it and sell it on ebay for 3x the price. Of course i am not advocating this practice but it does happen.

Beautiful book in spite of the PLOD.

For "Slight Professional Restoration" it sure has had several things done to the comic! Still a nice comic to have. I am sure the Buyer is happy!

[blowout]

A great example of a very nice looking book with only a small amount of restoration at a great price. Bargains really can be had if you are willing to accept the restoration work.

[supapimp]

so far not so good, looking like a bad flip....well 1 1/2 more days to go till we find out.

[comicmankev]

Did you actually think that it would re-sell?

[supapimp]

it's not mine, i didn't buy it. i think the seller is flipping it a little to soon.

Agreed!! That must have just straddled the line between slight and moderate.

[comicmankev]

Definately too soon, and I didnt think it was yours, just used the wrong words

[sfilosa]

It doesn't appear that $1,500.00 is a steal (unless the person does the unethical thing you mentioned).

 

It didn't even get a bid on eBay for $1,600.00.

 

I wonder if the buyer didn't pay attention to the ComicLink listing and thought it was unrestored.

 

Considering they are very close to flipping the book for a loss (after eBay and PayPal fees).

sold on ebay for $1500 so once again a bad flip at its finest.....when will these people learn? Should I teach a class?
