Between Heritage and Sparklecity auctions closing on Sundays, it looks like it I want to actually sell my under-copies of my books that I should allow my auctions to end on Saturday...

 

Too many auctions are closing on Sundays these days to remain competitive.

There is a grade 5 Batman 11 in the profiles-in-history auction at the end of July..

Thank you... I actually like the looks of that 5.0. It is on my radar.

 

It would be on mine, too, but the rust on the staples has migrated to the cover, so I'll pass.

 

Didn't notice that... Thanks for pointing out.

I briefly looked for it in the catalog and was pleased it did not have the foxing that the 6.5 copy had.

I can't argue against the insanity, but here's some other hammer prices on ASMs in 9.9 from this year:

 

#239 3,501 (ComicLink)

#275 1,351 (ComicLink)

#298 1,532 (ComicLink)

#300 6,101 :insane: (ComicLink)

#312 825 (eBay)

#319 1,226 (eBay)

#323 1,136 (eBay)

Well here is where the debate starts...

I paid $60 for a copy of Amazing Spider-man 303 in a 9.8 earlier this year. Is a 9.9 of that copy really worth about $800-1000 more?

I don't understand how ASM 252 in 9.9 is more valuable than Secret Wars 8 in 10???

 

Secret Wars 8 came out 7 months after Amazing Spider-man 252 allowing readers six months to realize how cool the black costume was?

 

Many more were saved?

How about an ASM #252 at CGC 9.8 for about $250. There are quite a few on eBay right now at this price. Is a 9.9 really worth $5,400 more? :screwy:

Apparently it was worth it to the buyer. :whistle: But why not buy an AF #15 instead? Ah well, shan't hate on those uber-HG Spidey collectors. To each his/her own.

I don't understand why anyone would pay more than $10 to $20 for either. :sorry:

I don't deny it.

 

I've been scanning books all weekend, and I'm a little rummy.

I agree with you on that point

 

However, I am still trying to figure out the exponential curve on a 9.8 to a 9.9 in relation to a 9.0 to a 9.2 or a 9.6 to a 9.8.

Don't try to figure it out. At least not in relation to logic. :lol: I just observe this stuff from afar. Too rich for my blood.
