Shaolingoat Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Put this up in General, but figured I should list it here as well. Picked this one up at the LCS last month, and got it back in hand this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaolingoat Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Thanks all. The funny thing is, going after a copy wasn't one of my immediate collecting goals, but sometimes that weekly LCS trip surprises you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKA Rick Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 For an X-Men #1... Is $2,100 for a CGC 3.0 a good price? http://www.comiclink.com/Auctions/item.asp?back=%2FComicTrack%2FAuctions%2Fbids%2Easp&id=1139505 I'm trying to figure out what's the sweet spot for buying an X-Men #1 with a budget under $3,500 to be patient and what to look for. I'm in no rush to buy the book. In one breath, I don't mind a Stan Lee CGC Signature Series since he's the creator and writer of the book, and for that I'd be willing to get a low grade but also not pay a premium more than the $100 or so he charges to sign books and the fees for CGC certification, so to me his autograph adds about $150 in value. I also a not sure what the lowest grade you can get while still having a book with front cover aesthetics and won't fall apart if you crack the CGC case. I feel that a 3.0 is that level. I also think maybe my ceiling is a CGC 5.0 as far as my budget goes. And, I wonder where's the best place to buy the book if you're patient hunting, whether its: AUCTIONS: ComicLink ComicConnect Heritage eBay Or straight retail LCS Convention Online-Dealer I know a lot of folks go off of the CGC historical precedent of sales, which I think is actually a good barometer of how low and high as well as recent, books have sold for I don't buy into price guides or what owners are asking as their sales prices to be proper gauges of valuation.

jason4 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 A 3.0 is a nice comic. That's the same thing I wanted and got a couple years ago. I think between 1800 and 2000 would be good for that grade. Ebay auction bid at the last minute and hope for the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
