Beige Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Blue label 9.8 of #1 are around $90-100 on ebay now Where do you think this will be in 6 months Jr? $120? $150? I'm not sure where the ceiling is on this one. I just know I wish I had bought more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mangbus Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I have my set of 1 - 8 and the ghost (plus whatever comes out between now and then) and I plan on slabbing them onsite at MegaCon this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure where the ceiling is on this one. I just know I wish I had bought more! If there wasn't so many on the census plus the multiple prints, I would say an easy $150. I think it depends if the word of mouth continues to spread and the story keeps strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don't think the number on the census will keep it under $150 for long with as much love as the series is getting. It'll definitely hit resistance at some point because of the print run, but $150 seems very realistic to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure where the ceiling is on this one. I just know I wish I had bought more! auction (not BIN) on one just closed at 133.65 + shipping, and there are about 3 BIN $150s out there. I think $150 is very likely this month, considering the last auction before the 133 sold for 123, last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miso Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 So, this just popped up on the bay. I think the BIN is out of whack for a raw. And it appears to have a bend going through the whole book at the top left corner. What would you guys pay for it? http://www.ebay.com/itm/SAGA-1-RRP-Diamond-Retailer-SS-Brian-K-Vaughan-Fiona-Staples-Image-/281046226036?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item416fa91474 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going to spend multi-hundreds on a RAW MODERN, I would be messaging the buyer directly and demanding a dozen high res pictures, zoomed in, of every side, corner, angle, and spine, plus forcing him to give it a numerical, in his opinion grade. If they arent willing to spend 10-15 minutes making a $200 dollar plus sale, on a book that came out this year, they are hiding stuff and trying to dump the book.

I bought 15 copies of that book raw over the past year and got 13 9.8s and 2 9.6s. If one had been any worse it would have gone right back to the seller. Don't be afraid of being the one who sends the books to CGC. You'll spend less in the long run. That said, the copy shown obviously already has the price tag of a high grade CGC book and has visible damage. Not sure why you'd even give it a second glance.

I said, if you are going to pay $200+ for a raw book, make sure the seller does (or is willing to) properly document it for you to judge accurately.

miso Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Just to clarify I wouldn't buy it at the price the seller has listed. I was more asking what you guys would pay for it given the visible damage or if you would even give it a second look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
