Moderns that are heating up on ebay! 71 71

or people are just plain dumb

Or the seller is a genius and bought out the print run before spreading Terry's article all over the Internet. Now he can supply all the speculators as they sell to each other.

 

A little of both I imagine.

 

Yup, this guy obviously noticed a pattern when he listed sets of 10s & 5s and they were gone within hours of listing. So now it seems that he's trying to make the most while still keeping his price the lowest on the Bay...

This happens on ebay ALL THE TIME with dealers. A few months ago I pointed out a seller that had sets of EOSV#1-5 for 15.00 a set. SHIPPED!

This was when EOSV #2 was going for approximately $15-20 a copy. Needless to say, the seller has sold all his stock within hours.. It went from 15 to 20 to 40.. I think he sold well over a 100 sets..

Just gotta look and youll find them

It has a great Skottie Young cover

 

The cover is definitely catchy. Story any good? The reason I'm asking is because my LCS have one for $100!!

 

Buy the individual comics if you're more interested in the story.

Sets of End Game without the Combo Pack are selling pretty well...I think the Combo pack is just boosted by a popular run of Batman.

Agree. I havent read any of the End Game books, but there seems to be a serious buzz over these. Curious, does the story changes anything or introduces new characters in the Batman continuity?

Another combo pack rarity.. 4 more days to go and already at 42.00

Not really. It's a good Joker story. I just finished 38 and there has been some possible insight into the history of the Joker. Haven't had a chance to crack open 39 yet, so I'm not sure if anything is debunked or if anything new is introduced.

[krighton]

or it could be people want the batman 35 combo cover without paying the combo prices.

I can assure you that a batman 35 combo pack will not last a day on the bay at $20 at this point

I seriously have about 20 of these. I threw away about 10 to save space. Go figure.

[krighton]

I'm too paranoid to throw out any comics.....even garbage I doubt will ever be worth anything.

New Joker origin, so it really changes a lot that has been known about him up to this point.

I like it. I haven't paid attention to how the die-hard batman/joker fans are reacting to it, but it's pretty cool.

[natevegas]

Is the combo pack trying to one up the old Whitman packs?

[larrytrulove]

Speaking of End Game I noticed that on MCS Batman Annual 2 was $3.70 now $6(1st Eric Boeder).. Could this book blow up and can anyone let me know where to find them cheaper online?

Imagine that a speculator's site being duped or collaborating with a seller.

Surely not possible.

 

Yeah I said it.

The website you guys are talking about from what I am told there is a group of people that run it.

Not just one guy behind the wheel like some individual_without_enough_empathy scalper guy.

Any thoughts on futures end #45 & #46?

Arcane Comics wouldn't do that. They've always had a ton of copies of the combo pack issues, but have lately been selling a lot more of them than usual, so they checked the completed sales on eBay and bumped their prices up. Nothing wrong with that, its a good shop.

 

 

But hey look at this:

 

http://comicbookinvest.com/category/market-report/top-10/

 

Last 3 books mentioned in this thread:

 

Batman 35 combo pack. Check.

 

Justice League 1 2nd print combo pack. Check.

 

Batman Annual 2. Check.

 

So lets stop pretending its all a result of a natural increase in demand for these issues.

Only comics that might be natural increase would be GA/SA...everything else is rabid speculation
