Still trying to find it in stores but no one seems to carry this or even heard of it ..

 

Impossible to find. Check the children section if you have one.

Found a #1 but it was in VF+ (VF/NM on a fuzzy day) and several #2. Are the #2 worth picking up???

Picked up 4 #1's and 3 # 2's today at Midtown Comics, couldn't believe I was that lucky.

Number 2 had a very small print run from what I have heard its in the 1500-2000 range. If the series gets legs it is going to be key

[ranx]

I printed my name on my printer....twice...only two in existence...seriously rare....I would consider an offer of a million dollars...

 

( I'm not spamming the board )

Harbinger #1 CGC 9.8 @ $405 & 21 bids.

New Mutants #87 CGC 9.8 @ $170 & 12 bids.

Deadpool #1 (1997) CGC 9.8 @ $150 & 3 bids.

 

Time to submit my Harbinger??!!??

 

Not at all.

 

VH1 books are at the bottom cycle in their valuations, pretty much all across-the-board. There was an overwhelming sentiment the relaunch would increase demand and value for the originals, the opposite happened.

 

 

Hmmmm.

 

So say that mine is a 9.8 (no clue if it is), raw it's what, like $50-$80?

 

Wouldn't it be worth it for the $200 price jump, or more??

 

Or are you saying "that's it", as in, that $200-$400 price is going to go down significantly?

 

Well there's been a lot of discussion that with the 'softening' in grading of Harbinger 1 over the years, a 9.8 is a bit more common. Not to sound like a , but under these old standards with CGC it is very unlikely your book would grade 9.8. Check the census, that's why the first few copies sold for over 2k. Then it churned down in and around $1,000, eventually sliding to $500, before now settling where it is now, around $400 mark. It has never hit $200 (aside from maybe one fluke sale).

 

I would agree that at $400 or so, it's not that bad of a purchase (I personally don't collect slabs), it more than likely won't go much lower, the floor is in - but the upside is very limited as well.

Super unlikely it will get back to $1k. But I digress; I've already beaten this subject to death on the VF boards.

 

If there's a thread on moderns that are cooling off (good time to buy), throw a dart at most VH1 books, and even some of the HTF Acclaims.

 

No, my question came down to if it was a good idea to get my raw copy graded if it has 9.8 potential.

 

At these prices, I wouldn't bother, unless you want it for your collection. My point earlier was that before CGC loosened their grading standards, Harbinger 1 was a book almost impossible to get in 9.8, mostly due to common defects on each copy. Even very adept graders subbed many books they thought were 9.8, only to come back 9.4-9.6. If you want the answer of a broader audience, go to the VF forums...there's a specific thread following just sales of Harby 1 9.8 (up to about 50 pages in length).

 

Okay, so then, if I understand correctly:

 

-Raw's go for ~$50

 

-CGC 9.8 goes for ~$250

 

-Grading standards are looser now (i.e. better chance of getting a 9.8).

 

-Grading costs+shipping ~$40

 

-Prices are reasonably stable, and aren't going to go a lot lower

 

 

Isn't it a no brainer to get it graded???

Love it when I order books and then forgot I order them.

Got a package in the mail today from an order several weeks ago.

All of these for under $1 piece in nice NM. It only happens for me like once a year.

GREAT story.

Skyward has a few more listings than yesterday, but prices are still going up. $45 for #1 and #2 (#2 came out yesterday).

 

Did you guys smoke out some sellers with the Skyward chatter??

I can't find it either. The hunt is on!

 

Same boat, can't find it anywhere...frustrated.

 

What's the deal with this anyway? Why the heat?

 

And I saw the article at Bleeding Cool with pages. It's supposed to be all ages, but seems like the girl is drawn/presented very early 90's/J .Scott-ish.

Not that it's not kid-friendly or I wouldn't let a kid read it, but isn't that geared more to teens?

[Dukes40]

I know this isn't the perfect place to drop this....but it had me

 

Look at this horrible custom action figure of Amanda Waller:

Looks like Mike Tyson's lovechild!

 

 

Man, I buy customs now and then. There's some really amazing ones, that can fetch $250 or more........and then there's the bad ones, worse than the one you posted, where I just can't believe someone would THINK someone else would want it.

[Dukes40]

There is no heat because the above books are all garbage.

Another 'burning hot' book for 3 days, and then it will go 'poof' like all the others.
