Moderns that are heating up on ebay! 71 71

[fastballspecial]

Add me to those who sold too early.

 

Had four that I sold for $50.00 each. Now it's too painful to watch what they sell for.

[Beamer]

Yup. Sold mine for $50 years ago.

[kimik]

Am I missing something here?

 

http://www.ebay.com/itm/THE-AMAZING-SPIDER-MAN-375-NM-1st-Print-VENOM-Gold-Foil-Cover-Double-Size-/201394774361?hash=item2ee4106159

 

One of my favorite "epitome of the '90s" books but I thought it was a $3 to $5 book.

 

It is a 3-5 dollar book, I have asked about this book before as some sales have seemed suspicious in the past.

 

It is an easy $10 sale at shows, sometimes $15. It has two things even casual comic fans like - Venom and foil.

 

Why do your posts always make it seem like Alberta (or just Edmonton?) is entirely populated by drooling who somehow have money?

 

The thing you have to take into consideration is the fact that most of the LCS do not have these books. Venom and Carnage are strong characters and sell well at shows. Like we had posted a couple of years ago, ASM #361 was a good seller at $40 - $60 locally even though they were still $15 books everywhere else. Heck, I threw out a Venom Lethal Protector set at a smaller show this spring and had it sell for $60 right away.

 

As Brian/500Club stated, it will be interesting to see how the market is this fall with the pullback in oil prices and layoffs in the E&P and services sectors. At the Calgary Expo in April one of the local collectors that was good for a few big books each year had to unload his collection due to a job loss.

 

 

[Still Only 35c]

Not sure if heating up just yet, but just sold a Darth Vader 3 via full $15 BIN out of nowhere.

 

 

Perhaps a possible Aphra Star Wars Movie casting announcement on the horizon ( as previously suggested here)?

[UltraMaximus]

Sold one of those at the store for $20.00. Being there are multiple prints, I would guess the 1st print is still cooking a little.

GO GO GO

 

 

Thanks. I bought them all.

 

NOOOO, I just wanted 1!

 

What's the significance of that book, other than it being the second comic appearance of Phil Coulson?

 

Coulson is undervalued in my opinion. Security Measures is an impossible find. Personally I would want this too, I think it is the only reprinting of security measures:

Undervalued why? After a handful of movie appearances and 44 episodes of a tv series, maybe people just don't care about him.

[Amadeus Arkham]

Neat character, but I would prefer they leave him dead.

[ebtorres]

He's not dead.

I thought it would be nice to get his signature on one of the photo covers until I realized he wants $80 for one. Next....

He's not dead.

He's dead to me! .....drumroll

[krighton]

Coulson is boring.. are there any 'rabid' Coulson fans? I'd rather collect appearances of Elroy Jetson.

[UltraMaximus]

at Elroy, but S.H.I.E.L.D. Is a great book , and as long as the 616 (or whatever mainstream Marvel universe is next), makes him as awesome as he was written to be, he stays.

Battle Scars #1 For the WIN BTW.

 

His death/revival also broke into the Kree connection for the MCU as to why he is alive. Season 3 will have Lash, 1st appearance is Inhuman #1 btw, so expect some more heat on That and Mighty Avengers #13 for the 1st Appearance of the Secret Warriors.

 

It had a lot of world building to do on ABC, now established and good stuff is coming.

$15 was low for awhile there, was it not? What's the norm now? Sorry cell phone.

[Aweandlorder]

Strange Fruit #1 1:30 about to close at 40.00 +

[IntoAnother]

I finally went in a Five Below that was convenient today. I want my Five Minutes back.

[Aweandlorder]

Oh did you know...?

Love Coulson. Only non-sports bobblehead I ever bought.
