Record GPA low on Green LANTERN #89 CGC w/ White Pages.

 

I love being bent over. :facepalm:

 

Said that I lost money on a book in 9.8 grade. :eyeroll:

LMAO

 

Nice to see you around Jim. Got any bids in play this time? hm

 

I have a few books I sincerely hope to not win :)

 

Hopefully my bids are low enough!

 

Glad you chuckled, as soon as I posted it I didn't know if it was to "risqué". I do have my eye on one piece of Original Art.

 

Jim

 

Bah I know you too well for that. Besides I waived my right to be offended at anything when, completely unprompted, I started making dikk jokes :)

 

Good luck on the auction, hope you win!

Anyone looked at how much The Walking Dead #1 CGC 9.8 is going for? :ohnoez:

 

Not seeing your point. It is only at $1345? (shrug)

But for a Modern book? (shrug)

 

Last one sold for $1750 a couple times now.

that's pretty wild for a modern
I know,right?

 

I can understand buying a Silver or Bronze age book for that price.

 

But a Modern age book?

 

Unless it's Wolverine #145 Nabisco variant or Batman #608 RRP in CGC 9.8,I'm not willing to spend that much for a Modern age book 2c

Post 1966 Silver and Bronze is tanking fast in HG.

 

Every month the auctions are keeping the downward swing going on most books.

 

I now believe 100% there is too much material in the market every month. People don't have time to refuel their comic budget.

It is what it is. WD is the hottest modern book out now and perhaps ever. Like others have said, people who do not know anything about comics started to buy comic book or trade paperbacks just to read all about TWD. Because of that, I can justify the high prices the book is selling for.

I really think this is 100% the reason for bad individual sales. Pretty much every single collector i know on here except for maybe 1 or 2 with seemingly endless $$$ is perpetually either reloading from a just finished auction or waiting on an upcoming auction. Good lord, the biggest best SA MArvel auction in history was just 1 month ago! :ohnoez:

Well at least one book that just ended went for a ton more than what I thought it would end at and it is a 1966 book.

 

Guess it makes up for the GPA low GL #89.

Instead of being surprised at the prices now, maybe we should have been even more shocked by the prices from a few years ago.

 

Personally, I've been kind of enjoying the prices lately:

I agree. I am still paying for my Heritage wins and here we are again. That said, Flash 165 9.6 went for 170.00 and 169 9.6 which is a tough book to find in NM and above went for 246.00. Those are way past sales.

 

While the Tec 31 went for insane money was anyone surprised that a 9.0 28 only went for 10.3 K. That seems like a deal when you compare it to Action 2 and the money it brings. Was anything up with the book or do we really hate NBCPRT (non-bat-cover-pre-robin-tecs) that much?

Of course if you are a buyer. lol

 

However, I maybe now can be able to up my grading threshold standards on my Spider-man run now since alot of 9.4/9.6's are selling for much less currently. hm
