yecul Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 That seems like a strong price, but then again, it's a high demand early Tec. I mean, what would sound more "reasonable", 3k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bat-Man Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 4K in my opinion is a pretty fair, even low price, if it's complete - for that Tec 31 Gator is offering. A CGC .5 Tec 31 missing a back cover and missing a bunch of the front cover sold for $3,400 in 2008. http://www.comicspriceguide.com/blog/post/2008/11/13/Detective-Comics-31-CGC-5-Brings-243400.aspx I think 4K is the bottom floor on the Tec 31 nowadays.

It probably is worth every penny he will ask. Don't mind me guys, I'm just a grumpy old fart that likes his GA cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even then you could actually afford secondary keys without having to choose between a mid grade book and a nice new car. A lot of the cool books have gotten totally out of reach today for someone who is only interested in collecting (actually keeping books for longer than 1 - 10 months). Thank you for sustaining that world, Ciorac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
