Gator,

 

-What do you think the current FMV is for a complete Action #1 CGC Universal .5?

 

-What do you think the FMV will be in 5 years?

given that a .5 just sold for 110K, and that there were multiple folks willing to pay that,that seems to be floor of FMV...

 

may be worth 10% more or 100% more in 5 years....no one knows

Gator,

 

Cap 1 or All-Star 8?

From what perspective? Importance? Value? Potential value? Personal preference?

 

All of the above. Curious because I personally consider cap to be the #3 most important comic book universe character, but appears my perspective is wrong. WW beats cap out based on the recent sales...Flash and GL might also.

 

How do you figure that? The highest graded AS8 is not comparable to a Cap 1 that is tied for 8th with 4 others.

Rick, are you speaking from a historical perspective? From a demand point of view there are books that would fall into line before tec 38 ( i.e. tec 31) right?

Yes. Historical. Tec 31 has more demand than 3-5 but it's not as "key" per se, imo

UNC or Villanova tonight?

 

UNC has crushed every opponent by 14+ points, whereas Villanova has shot the lights out, except against Kansas.

 

Tonight's game reminds me of 1985 Villanova vs Georgetown. You were only a young GAtor back then.

Yep. Amazing man 26, funny pages 40, amf1/4, star 3, comic pages 3/5, cowboy comics 14, Stars and Stripes 6/5

 

My guess is 5-10 or so of each are likely out there

If that's not the best copy in existence, I would love to see a better one!
