sclemons Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 There was some discussion earlier on how much Saga RRPs would be selling for post C2E2. Here are the copies that I have seen sell today on ebay: $40 $75 $80 $80 $95 (although it clearly had significant bending on the backside of the comic) $125 $150 Looks like it pays to be patient.

krighton Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 They have been averaging $100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddymagoo Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I got hold of two of the Saga RRP in the UK for £25 ($39 each) What does RRP stand for anyway? I have also bought some Fiona Staples Saga art which I'll try and post later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilAsh Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Nice!! I thought her art was all digital though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate, Staples has done all the art for Saga on computer as far as I am aware - so unless you are talking about a sketch I'd be a bit worried...

jjeanius Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I keep trolling eBay hoping for a reasonably priced RRP...and I keep missing them. This is terribly frustrating! And now the price fix is in, as there seems to be a united front to try to make it a $135 book...when the sales thus far have not supported that price.

I'm doing the same thing and I keep missing the lower priced ones too. I had a shot at one over the weekend, but I took too long reading the description, trying to get a sense of the grade, and somebody beat me to the Buy-it-Now.

MadGenius Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 So...in the last 3 minutes, 2 NM copies sold for $119.99 each and 1 VF copy sold for $89.99. WOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sclemons Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 A VF copy with a bent corner just sold for $90... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadGenius Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 I can't argue with the prices on the NM sales, but $90 for a VF copy with a bent corner seems excessive. Personally, I'd rather pay the extra $10-45 for a higher grade copy, but that's me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeanius Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 or just pay $8 to press the VF to NM... ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadGenius Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 or just pay $8 to press the VF to NM... ;-) Yeah, but that's a big gamble. If you're going to pay money to press, you're probably looking to get a 9.8 at the end. If that bend breaks any color, you're screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
