NinjaSealed Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 2 cents..... Wait for one at auction, you can get a better deal than that. maybe....maybe not... I can hear the collective groans of the people who were hoping to score one of the many copies at auction right now as they read you saying this. Several to choose from in the next month. The 5.5 at HA, a 4.0 and 6.5 at CL and a higher grade but toasty looking 7.5 at CC. I really like the 3.5 comics4less has ending on ebay this weekend. Solid looking book for the grade.

kimik Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 So just an update: The CGC 4.5 i was offered to is no longer available. Somebody beat me to it and snagged it for $5750 Very nice! It will be interesting to see where it settles out at. There is still a decent amount of time before the Justice League movies hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peewee22 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Most undervalued book around. Iconic cover. Best looking cover on a SA book (yes, including AF15). I just love 28s. Bomber-bob probably has the best looking copy around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I still think SC 22 is the most undervalued key right now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bomber-bob probably has the best looking copy around. Thank you ! If you only look at labels, my book is a 7.5 . However, if you look at the book, it is a very fresh looking copy with White Pages. Very clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With your sig line, it doesn't appear that you have trouble acquiring books... SC22 is really affordable right now in mid/high grade (5.0-7.5) if you go looking.

Bomber-Bob Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Wow! This makes my copy look like a dirty paper towel... Seriously, you dealers have an unfair advantage in the collecting game. Nice book! Thanks. FYI, I'm not a dealer, not even close. I got this book probably 20+ years ago. It came from a collection in Canada. I got quite a few books from this collection and most have similar characteristics. Technically they didn't grade uber high but very fresh with White Pages. Sometimes it pays to be a long time buy and hold collector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one... was just a bit too much... hehehe But ok ..maybe it's good I don't have it. I might just be staring at it all day long... and having it with me everywhere.

This is my favorite cover of all time and your copy is frickin pristine! Hard to believe it is only a 7.5! It is also my favorite cover. I really also like AF15. And FF1 is also good and iconic imo. And then I had another more undervalued book than those three that I really really like the cover to too: Showcase 34! But yeah... If I had to absolutely pick one it would be BB28.

roulette44 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Someone said this earlier but the range on realized prices is a little wider on DC mega keys since they're far rarer than the marvels, and there's more disagreement on their value. Likely having sold more bb28s than anyone in the last 3 years, I think GPA data is funny - it's definitely a cross section of much lower sales than what really happens. But I'm also the one who asked for more GPA reporting......and took a betting on that one. my favorite copy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a mainly DC collector, this is an unfortunate truth of the hobby. I always pay over GPA on nicely presenting DC mega keys (can safely make the same statement when I am selling them as well). :shrug: Edited May 17, 2015 by rfoiii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
