Why wouldn't a variant be a key? It has the same story. 

Because they are manufactured "rarities", just like CGC graded books being manufactured "collectibles" :bigsmile:

I guess you're just joking but being a manufactured rarity doesn't mean anything with regards to something being a key. A variant cover is the same story, just with different cover art. Some are incentives but the majority are not any rarer than the "A" cover.

How many copies of hulk 181 are "just sitting there"? 

What do you think that proves? (shrug)

-J.

If $18k is reasonable, then why is the one listed at $16,500 not selling?  I’m not seeing too many Hulk 181 9.8s on EBay, and I’m certainly not seeing any priced less than the last sale.   Do you already own a 9.8 of this Wolvy variant?

Context-

The ebay copy sold for $17k and the one that's a whole $500 under that is shipping from Australia.  

Also, auctions and buy it nows are two different animals, ie an auction for a 9.8 (that hasn't happened in several months on ebay) will create more of a FOMO than a guy in Australia trying to sell his copy for a tiny fraction less (because he is in Australia) as a buy it now.

Why say it sold for $18K?:makepoint:

 

The 2010 Campbell variant that just sold for 18K on Ebay.

That’s a lot of dough. Probably way too much but who’s willing to do all the math?

I can see that being bought. The effort someone went through to get those everything in high grade would be insane.

It's ASM.   It's not so much about effort as it is about having the money to spend.   I'm thinking the seller is more using this listing as a sort of preview for  upcoming individual auctions.   Someone please go through and do the GPA math.:wishluck:

All of the above are also CGC 9.8.

 

There are 948 cgc comics. 800+ are 9.8. 

 

This is the culmination of over 2 decades of collecting comics and 1 decade of CGC vigorus hunting, personal pressing, person to person trading, and direct to cgc certifying.

 

80% of these were direct submissions to CGC. 20% were acquired by other means.

 

Whew…. Here’s the boring stuff now.



 

Here at Cloud 9 Comics and More, the original since 2004, we strive for 5 stars positive feedback for every transaction. If we have not met this standard in any way contact us and we will make things right. That is a promise!

 

Attention international bidders: we only use the eBay international shipping program which means we cannot combine shipping. This means you WILL be charged import fees,taxes and other charges. Please assume that it will be expensive and do not bid on items if you are not willing to pay theses fees.

 

Attention CGC bidders: All cases are brand New unless otherwise noted. This doesn’t mean that the casings are flawless. As of 2021 cases will have minor flaws (I.E. scuffs,scratches, newton rings) and these flaws are present at the time of encapsulation. There will not be cracks, debris or any serious flaws. If this happens contact us we will make it right. Also some CGC 9.8’s don’t have rear photos. Rest assured that these items are free from flaws. We have fast and free returns in case you are in any way dissatisfied. Yes! That means we take returns on certified comics. We are very confident you will be satisfied with our product.

 

Some Comics may have a sticker on the cover in the photo, these stickers are on the bag and board not the comic unless otherwise stated in the title of the listing.

 

If you have questions about the grade see the title. Please note that wedo not send extra photos of the comics we list. We grade accurately and have an amazing return policy.

 

We answer all questions promptly.

 

We combine shipping generously.

 

Payment must be made within 3 days of purchase. If payment isn't made within that time frame the transaction will be cancelled and a non-payment will be listed on the buyers account. If you can’t make payment in that timeframe we humbly request you postpone bidding or making offers until you are prepared to make payment.

 

Insurance is free on all items or groups of items that total over $200.00.

 

Thank you for your business and keep in mind that if you buy more product I am more willing to negotiate on pricing.

 

If you have questions on high end product that are difficult to answer over the messaging services that ebay provides then you may request our phone number to have that conversation. Just send us a message and we will gladly give you our phone number when appropriate.

 

Once done shopping send us an invoice request (this is an icon found on the desktop version of eEbay) and we will promptly send combined shipping prices for all items on the invoice.

 

Our combined shipping offer is only available for domestic shipments.  If you need combined shipping and you are an international customer please contact us through eBay messaging first.

 

All comics are bagged and boarded!  (This doesn’t include graphic novels and magazines)

 

Thanks for shopping with the original

Cloud 9 Comics and More (since 2004!)
