Thor Odinson-1970 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Thanks for the compliment. I figured now is a good time as any to buy a decent blue-labelled copy of SC#4. In recent years, it hasn't been going up in price in the OSPG anywhere nearly as great as most of the major SA Marvel keys in OS' top 20 list. I've made sure that I acquired all the Marvels first. The only other major SA DC keys I have so far are raw mid-grade copies of B&B#28 (as well as 29 & 30) and JLA#1 which I bought back in the late 1990's at conventions.

Speedy-D Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I think the 4.5 had writing on the cover if I remember correctly. Do you remember how much writing? A little name or something wouldn't bother me too much at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash105 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 It was small and written in the white. It was early last year i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciorac Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 It was small and written in the white. It was early last year i think. doesn't seem like enough to warrant such a drastic price drop. Maybe it was just timing? Or venue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's back up for sale with a Buy It Now of 28.5K The book has been up there for about two weeks. Silvercomics tends to auction the same books in their Ebay store an run the auction at the same time, even though they only have one. I guess if someone who lost the auction bid and did a buy it now in their Ebay store for the same item, it will cause some problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase22gr1959 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 It sold. I am frustrated once again. That`s a really good price for a 8.0. and that's a 40% jump from the last recorded GPA in 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash105 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I thought it was fully valued. The 7.5 just sold for 12.5 in November. The last 8.5 sold for 28K. I think I have been the underbidder on the last three 7.5-8.5 that have sold. I want one but I want to be careful. I don't want to set a GPA record and then not be able to sell the book if I had to.
