Sanj Mitra Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Comic went for over $2800 which is a strong price for the book. I took a stab but would not have gone that high. Congrats if it was a boardie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash105 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 2800.00 seems like a big gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciorac Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 2800.00 seems like a big gamble. As long as it isn't restored, it shouldn't be much of a gamble That price is what 3.5s have been selling for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash105 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I guess I just get a little nervous buying non-cgc books that are expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash105 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) OK, does it bug anyone that we have to endure 20-30 days of waiting until the final day of real bidding occurs on these auctions. I get worked up into a lather with all this waiting. But I guess that is the point. Edited February 6, 2011 by Flash105 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as it isn't restored, it shouldn't be much of a gamble That price is what 3.5s have been selling for Last month, in comic link, Two 4.5 sold for around 2800$ . . . and if I recall correctly, they sold pretty quickly. I think there might have been more money to be made if those had been around longer. If there's no restoration on that SC #4, it looks like a 3.5 at least. possibly a 4.0 if the spine is better than it appears in the photos. They are a little blurry to be sure. But IMHO it's possible both buyer and seller did ok @ $2800. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase22gr1959 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 (edited) Last month, the last SC4 3.5 sold on CL for $2300,. Based on that sale and the few 4.5s, for $2800.00 the buyer better hope for a 4.0. All and all, the book at $2800 (if 4.0) is full FMV or at least for now.

And a 3.0 sold for $2600 last month according to GPA. So...the CGC 3.0 and the raw 3.5-4.0 were over FMV and the CGC 3.5 and CGC 4.5's were either FMV or under FMV. With more recent data sales, there would be a more accurate FMV. Edited February 7, 2011 by showcase22gr1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The market is usually made, or not made, by two bidders. Absent two motivated bidders and you get the CL results. Having two motivated bidders, you get last month's sale. Heck, the pre-Robin Tec market exploded at the hands of literally a handful of collectors. Our market is just that fickle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many sales go undocumented on GPA and prices may be higher in certain area and lower in some. The $2800 price for the raw copy, could be one hoping for a 4.5+. I would wait a bit more to find a trend for SC4, but it's not down for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash105 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Well the 7.5 on ebay only sold for 12,601 in Nov. and that was a real nice copy. I think it had OW pages as well and was well centered. I thought it was a bargain. I had a snipe bid that did not get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash105 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Certainly more on CL, probably not much more on Ebay. He needs to wait a year, for me to be ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
