youmechooz Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) Can i Join? I think this is a 1 or maybe a .5 due to excessive tape. Might get it CGC'd at the NYCC for fun. Got a reprint to read anyway Never thought I'd own this but I outbid someone on ebay 4 years ago by just 5 dollars and got it for 505. Gotta be worth more now. saw the pills on the floor, thought you were house of comics Edited August 10, 2013 by youmechoose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaja-mon12 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 congrats man, I guess you wwent for the hulk over the SC4?! Thanks! And besides that Investment Comics article here were my other reasons: My reasons were: 1. I just don't have faith in WB/DC when it comes to doing a live action Flash movie. They will have only released 1 movie in 2.5 years with MOS being the last, and then there is no guarantee a Flash movie will drop in 2016. 2. Hulk is a Taurus like me! We are both born in the month of May, so I feel a connection with the character just like Batman (Taurus also). 3. I don't feel Flash will ever rise to the marketability or popularity of the Hulk. Besides Spidey, the Hulk is Marvels next most popular character. 4. Even though the Showcase #4 is the rarer book in high grade, IH #1 is still rare in a high grade in its own right. And there being only 4 pedigree IH #1's kind of makes up for that. 5. This is currently the 2nd most valuable SA book on the market, right behind AF #15. Showcase #4 may be 4th or 5th. 6. The majority of my collection is DC, so I wanted to add the mega key Marvel comic book to my collection to give it some diversity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're trying to make a private deal on a book that hasn't had a recorded sale in grade for X amount of years but all of the grades under it are trending upward. I think it's safe to say if the asking price is close to its outdated recorded sale, it's undervalued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I misunderstood your point about undervaluing because it came directly after your citation of GPA comics without any other explanation. My bad. As for you explanation of GPA undervaluing, I wouldn't call the comic undervalued, I would just say that GPA idoesn't hav enough data to show the current value of the comic.
