dem1138 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 The Tec #27 CGC 5.5 Rockford copy is now a new company 6.0. Wonder why the current owner got it regraded by the other company. Thought they wouldn't get a CGC bump? Anyway, interesting news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjeanius Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Well, there's a 7.5 (Billy Wright) that sold on HA awhile back. Also curious about the Billy Wright 7.0 that sold on HA the same year (since only one 7.0 is currently on the census, and we know Bunky has a 7.0). Maybe the 7.0 was re-subbed and got a bump to 7.5?

Johnny545 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Gotcha, I saw the Billy Wright, but would assume CC would note that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeanius Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Actually - looks like the Tec 29 7.0 and 7.5 Wright copies on HA are the same book. So...one lucky buyer bought the 7.0 for $83,650 in Feb 2012 - then that buyer pressed/resubbed the book to a 7.5, which he then sold for $65,725 in Nov 2012. This would explain the lack of a second 7.0 on the census. All in all, the seller lost over $33k in less than 8 months. That's a bitter pill to swallow! Even better: Looks like the same buyer played the same game with Tec 28 from the same Feb 2012 auction, with similar results: Bought an 8.0 Wright Tec 28 in Feb 2012 for $44,812.50 - sold the same book in May 2012 as an 8.5 @ $38,837.50...for a net loss of roughly $15k.

Gotham Kid Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 The Billy Wright books took a bath second time on the auction block. Most, if not all of them. Speaking for the detectives in the collection. 45 is another example ( HA archives) I've been trying to tell a certain boardie with the BW 43 that.
