New MH pricing

[drice6900]

Anyone notice Chuck has lowered his prices across the board, including the much discussed Dallas Stephens books? Some of the CGC books are actually decently priced, and with the right sale going on...

[DiceX]

Don't worry.

He raises the prices before he puts on a sale.

Usually things cost more when he's running a special than they did at the normal everyday low price.

I checked a couple things. The FF prices are still totally out of whack.

I just checked Amazing Fantasy 15 ($4500 for a Pence copy in Good) and Hulk.. ($7,000 for a Hulk 1 in G condition) and gave up..

I'm still not impressed. He is crazy.

I'll revisit this page tomorrow and we'll see how things shape up. Want o know what will frighten me? Books from that list that have sold

Some of his prices on his Ebay auctions are pretty good, and I'm actually high bidder on some with reserve met!

Really? I've clicked on a ton of his auctions recently and just passed them by assuming that the prices would be beyond what I would want to pay.

[sfilosa]

I did buy one book from them that was a "Reserve not Met" auction and felt that I got a reasonable price. And the shipping charge was below normal.

 

So I have definitely started looking at more of their books.

What's the Chuckie EBay link you guys are using?

I'm halfway through redoing the list I compiled in November. While there are definitely a few books that have seen dramatic reductions in price, what's more amazing are the INCREDIBLE, MIND NUMBING INCREASES. One example-

 

FF#1 Apparent VF-

OS Guide (8.0): $20,675

Unrestored 7.5 GPA: $8816

Old MH Price: $31968

New MH Price:

$46500

Me thinks Chuck has taken the delta in the discounts and added them to the increased cost in others....

 

Can't wait to read the finished list, Rob.

[goldust40]

OMG and WTF. Surely you jest - we're now in the realm of fantasy here.........

[goldust40]

Oh yeah, OS guide for an unrestored 8.0 is $9350, not $20,000. Which means that an unrestored 7.5 would be about $6500 - $7000.

Yeah, I goofed and used the VF/NM price. I don't adjust since there's no sure-fire way to adjust for tweener grades, so I'll just list the $9350.

 

A ton of people have seen that same data since November and no one else has caught that error. Thanks!

[rob_react]

The revised table is up.

 

The skinny? Many prices really are lowered, many remain the same and a few are raised to point of being absurd.

[chrisco37]

Hmmmm.....the Dallas Srtephens collection must be moving like hotcakes to justify the near 2.5x increase in price on the BB #28 in VG. I know it's a major key, but come on!

 

Oh well. At least he dropped the prices on the Wolverine Limited Series.

THIS is why the "Mile High Collection" (aka the Edgar Church Pedigree) took years and years to sell. But unlike that collection, you're not going to look back in five years and say "gee, I wish less of those books had sold."
