Feb Heritage Auction

612 posts in this topic

I also like the tek #32 Highest graded copy.....cheap at 3k....great book and a steal of a price

 

The Detective #32 CGC 6.5 isn't the highest graded copy. There are two copies at 7.5.

lol Stupid facts getting in the way of hyperbole.

It is at 2400 bucks right now if you pick it up for say 3k, I think it is a good buy...do not think you can compare them, but what is YOUR top 5 after looking over the auction and do you disagee with my other picks BC.

 

Many of these high price secondary keys and titles appear to be falling by the wayside as collectors are focusing in on the primary keys and the primary titles. I believe this trend is going to continue on into the future.

 

On the other hand, some of the really hard to find books that you never see come into the marketplace such as some of the low price early Centaurs are just going right through the roof. A lot of diamonds in the rough here and you just have to be able to find the right one. hm

What about that Planet comics #1 for 3500 + bp. ? Wish i had paid attention last nite.

Guess its time to start focusing on the C-link auction.

 

There's at least one book in that auction that I'd very much like to win.

 

I've picked out about a half a dozen so far. Always seem to do better with C-link anyway. It's like the pre owned luxury car lot, while Heritage is the Bentley dealership. I know where me and my beer budget belongs. :P

Billy collection will have a kick of added value as time goes on......that helps you get though the tough times.
Really? What's been the recent history with new pedigrees or collections offered through Heritage or elsewhere? I think Jive is right on in saying that people go nuts at Heritage and then the books get resold later for a loss in a lot of instances.

lou fine has been saying the same thing, and they're both right.

Quick question - I got some outbid notices an hour ago on books where Internet bidding is closed. And the live session hasn't started yet right? How was someone able to bid? Was it proxy bids that they run next morning or something similar? Thanks!

 

Legacy clients can bid on the internet right up until the auction starts. You gotta spend some bucks to be a Legacy client, though.

 

You oughta know Mr. Moneybags. :baiting:

 

Well, another Heritage Signature auction is going to come and go without me winning anything. Only two of my bids survived last night, and just by the skin of their teeth; they are sure to fall in the Live Bidding event. Guess its time to start focusing on the C-link auction.

 

Thanks, George, for never missing an opportunity to say that.

fair enough. I haven't broken it down to a top five, but I am always interested in what the major supe bat archies and caps go for. I often watch and end up bidding on things I hadn't planned to, just because I see something that is a lot lower than i thought it should be, so i bid even if i have it. over the years i've done well doing that when i later needed/wanted to resell the ones i got in those moments.

If I missed an opportunity, you might begin to think I don't like you. :foryou:
