goldust40 Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 A comic is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Anyway, no. Hollywood1892 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan510 Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 I would be surprised if someone paid that much for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solm4st3r Posted December 23, 2010 Author Share Posted December 23, 2010 Sucks! I was going to bid on it, but it over my $100 budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scavas Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 (edited) I would be surprised if someone paid that much for it. There are still deep pocket collectors out there that want to be #1. What if two of them see it and start a bidding war. Kinda like the Spiderman 9.8 on ebay that only had 4 copies and past sales around 300 and they bid it up to almost 3k.

KryptoSpidey Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 no. but best of luck to the consignor. I'm going to take a wild guess,but by looking at the scan,i'd say that it would come back no higher than a 9.8 if re-subbed,which no-one would ever do.But,i'm just saying...i've seen nicer looking 9.8's. Pretty sure i thought the same thing when i saw the Cap 100's in 9.9,and Ironman #1 in 9.9..they looked weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The book has long been rumored to have been damaged in the slab. That rounded corner looks like the damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldust40 Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Not sure, although the old label does make me think so, that I saw that book about a decade ago at SD. The price then was $60K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solm4st3r Posted December 23, 2010 Author Share Posted December 23, 2010 Its funny to think that thousands of dollars can ride of a grade. If it was resubbed and got a 9.8, or the owner somehow dropped the case and damaged the book slightly, the book could lose so much value. I rather stick to my 8.0 copy, even if I was rich.

rob_react Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Just went on sale on Comiclink for $150k. HERE. Is a 9.9 really worth that much? I think a solid copy (not one that has SCS) would be worth maybe half that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockMyAmadeus Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Even as a 9.8 sitting in a 9.9 case, it still, tops, worth only abut $50,000, with the shrinking value of the 9.8s. But, hey, people can dream. I thought this was funny: "this singular example is definitively the most significant single comic book graded by CGC published in the last 35 years. " Someone better buy Comiclink a calendar....Hulk #181 was published 36+ years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
