So, based on what was said earlier by HugeRosen, then this little book is only worth $500.00 :blahblah:

 

I have submitted about 60 books thus far to CGC and 57 9.8s, 2 9.9s, and now this little baby.... (worship)

But the ironic part is that this little 3 book lot is only going to bring in 1k, supposedly, wow, what a shame, hm:screwy::frustrated::roflmao:

Not sure if he thinks he could get 50k, but he would get more than 1k. You think there is only 1 hulk44. (tsk)

DIdn't you hear? A 10.0 of a brand-new modern book is always worth at least $7,500 :ohnoez:

Haha...no matter how much the 10 would get in a live auction, I would be tempted to keep it in my PC, unless I was offered a price that would be stupid not to accept.

Ugh, again, I hope this guy gets thousands and thousands for this book. It only increases the value of my stack. But to your point, yes, there is only 1 hulk44.

 

There have been 3 #2 9.9's for sale so far. Sold for $200, $200, and $250. Has there been any movement up in price for Revival since then? No.

 

I'm sure he's excited which we all would be if I got a box from CGC with a 10.0. I'm not trying to rain on a parade. But when someone asks what it's worth and I give an opinion and get countered with a $7,500 sale example of a #1 SS, instead of looking at past sales of the exact same grade and issue, that's just nonsense.

Does Revival have a better printing process then the other Image books? Is this an unusual number of mint/gem copies for one title?

 

The cover-stock that Image has been using for a while now is very high quality in general - it's pretty much just the luck of the draw whether the books are going to roll off the printing press with the small bindery tears that usually keep them out of 9.9 and 10.0.

 

Revival lucked out in that regard - but this also means that where there's one 9.9/10.0 copy, there will be more. Which is why overpaying for the first "mint" or "gem mint" copy that gets put up for sale is always going to be a losing proposition.

I never once alluded to the notion of me possibly getting a minimum of 50k, so your assumption is far fetched! The three sales of the 9.9 were within a few minutes, so they are not an adequate gauge of proper sales. Let's just say, for your amusement, we use your analogy of $250.00 as that is four times the normal sales rate of a 9.8, so the 10.0 would be a minimum of 1k based on the 4x sales of the 9.9s, which were only BIN's and not straight auction. Now if we use the analogy of the #1 sales; it would be different. The #1 sales hover around 100, and the 9.9s averaged around 900, so that is 9X's the sales of the 9.8s, and the 10 SS sold for $7,400, which is 7Xs the sales of the 9.9s.

 

So now let's take that formula and apply it to the #2 10.0. 9.8s sell for 50.00 on average, so the 9.9 would sell for $450.00 (ideally), and then the 10.0, should sell for $3,100 (based on that formula of course).

 

Did I miss something, HugeRosen? 2c:baiting:

 

Simple math goes far in anticipation of sales...as does logic, what a thought, HugeRosen!!!!

a lesson is needed here in math or economics....

 

If a single person paid both the inflated 9.9 and the inflated 10 price. How does this relate to your book?

 

Then tell the CGC board again how much it costs to submit books to CGC....

If your entire math equation wasn't based on the purchase history of one person, it'd still be wrong considering you are using pricing of #1's, not #2's. And the ACTUAL sales of #2 you are tossing out the window as 'not an adequate gauge of proper sales' while using the 4 sales of #1 9.9's and the 7500 sale of #1 10.0 like they are an accurate number.

 

So to answer your question of "did I miss something, HugeRosen?" My answer is yes, you are missing a lot. :facepalm:

your doctorate (if its real), clearly isnt in math or economics....

Then tell the CGC board again how much it costs to submit books to CGC....

 

What are you talking about? Do elaborate, or are you going to edit your comment yet again? What does the term inflated have anything to do with what we are talking about now? The proper term would be going rate; not inflated rate.

 

I am actually pursing a doctorate, so learn to read properly before assuming as I recently finished my 2nd master's degree and am pursuing my doctorate simountaneously (sorry for the big word).

 

BTW, it is also so cute that you have a want list in your signature line. Maybe one day you will aspire to fulfill that list, since it is not a tough list at all...

 

Oh yeah...this was in my common box that I forgot I had, interested?
