Beige Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Keep em Simon (thumbs u Panzerfaust will bottom out before Nwm It won't - not a hope in hell - #8 and #9 will ensure a bold secondart market, not to mention a TV show being strongly persued. NWM has a different coloured cover - thats it. However I am selling the PP#1's I have at hand. As soon as the others return from CGC they will be sold as well. I love the book - reaaly do - but with what I get for say 8 #1's - that buys me a beautiful 9.0 - 9.2 DD #1 Thats my only point - in 3 yrs time - a DD #1 will still have value - who knows about PP? I hope it does for everyones sake. NWM - the value won't hold for 3 months! Extra 'con' variants,Larry variant, Pink,Yellow and Black variants etc etc - there will be 10 variants out soon,differentiated by colour only. I wish no-one any financial loss but to be forking out $300 on a variant that Stephenson has said he's giving away 200/500 and the legal one that was 350/850 is nuts! 550/1350 were given away and will all be sold for what the lucky recipients can get - $100 - $80 - $40 - $15? If you miss getting on before pre-sales,don't jump on at the top of the small completionists surge. but an honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I like pie Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I just read the first line. It will PP prices are based on speculation of something greater than/outside the book itself. If that flops, watch the dominoes tumble. I sold my two #1 slabs for $500/ea and glad to have the weight off my shoulder. Still enjoy the book though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beige Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 We agree to disagree. Neither of us will influence it. Diarise this for 3 months time - one of us will look silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I like pie Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I just prefer to lean on a book that has value based on the book alone. Nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beige Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Then you have contradicted yourself mate. NWM is pure "Emperors new clothes" material - 3 issues, made famous on here for multi-coloured variants! Nobody not connected with these boards are buying them - no-one! This is all ES hype driven BS and I'm sorry to say too many Lemmings jumped off the cliffs. PP has a surging print Run - over 12K now for #10, thats a solid NON-BOARD growth. You seem to be unable to grasp the difference. PP is a fine story on its own, and has grown accordingly. NWM is not as yet, but may do. But no-one is going to pay $3000 for 10 differrent coloured covers. You will either have 15 (or whatever) books going for a fortune, or 15 for a huge loss. Either way,I don't care as I saw through the haze of BS and bought none. Can we leave this now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I like pie Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I'm not talking about variants or market value of the books. Everyone knows you're not a fan of variants and promptly bash the book if it has any. Thank goodness NWM doesn't have any phantom covers PP is not really a story of its own. If PP tries to become mainstream media, I believe it will flop because it will always be compared to other media versions of the character. That's a lot to overcome.

CallMeSang Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I strongly agree with you andy70. Earlier in the thread I was ALL in for NWM. After e.s. jumped into the conversation the frenzy took off like a rocket that fueled my suspicions. Well, my suspicions materialized when all the colored variants started to hit the market. Several pages ago, I said enough was enough and I went ahead to dump almost all of my "hoard" of NWM and am glad to have liquidated. What did I get out of it? A 9.8 secret wars 8, 9.6 asm 57, 9.6 asm 252, 9.8 x-men 140 All of these books WILL have value in the near future as well as the long term.
