Mac Man Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Here is my copy. It is the ugliest copy I have ever seen. I'm just happy that I own though. I plan to get Stan the sign it in the future. Oh... I don't know about that. Take a look at the copy posted right before your's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooter99 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Those are both killer books. It is amazing to think that there are 2 9.8's and 2 9.6's in the census. Plus, there is a decent chance that there are a few more in UHG raw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which at the time was an all-time high? Then he sold it for around 40K? He should have kept it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etanick Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 I believe that copy (his) was on CL and the hammer was around $43k or something close to that. I was bidding until it went over $40k....and yes, he did pay $23k or something close to that from Pedigree back in 2006/2007 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

etanick Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) finally scan posted and looks like a fresh newly slabbed book. gorgeous white copy for you PQ nut....not that I know anything about this book but it wouldn't be a shock that this was press up from a 9 or 9.2 like the Mound copy on CL. http://www.pedigreecomics.com/auction-detail.php?issue_id=36717 throwing out the PQ difference...I really like the Pedigree book more than the CL copy. The slight flaw on the bottom right corner of the CL copy make that copy a tad less appeal to me.....as if I can afford either http://www.comiclink.com/auctions/item.asp?back=%2FAuctions%2Fdefault%2Easp%3F%5FSORT%3DYES%26Focused%3D1%26f1%3Da%2EMaxBid%26ODire1%3DDESC%26f2%3Di%2ETitle%252C%2Bi%2EIssueNumber%26ODire2%3DASC%26f3%3Da%2ENoofbids%26ODire3%3DDESC%23Item%5F885264&id=885264 I think this is the first time EVER that we have 2 9.4 copies up for auction in a few weeks span Edited April 18, 2011 by etanick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtecbot Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Is there a price scale for signed copies yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etanick Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 not that I keep track yet on those since there are so few, many of them are in GPA. One of the main reason I created this list is the lack of CL data in GPA. CL tends to have 1 to 3 copies of X-men up for auction each month so this list helped create a more complete picture for those that either don't have GPA or like to see how CL prices fall in general with GPA.

The CL book has more of that transparent look on the front cover. I wouldn't be surprised if the Ped. book goes for 15-25K more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCJ Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 PQ trumps centering for most collectors? I suppose a patient collector would hold out for both white pages and better centering, though that's a pretty exclusive club, the X-Men 9.4 and above!
