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. On the book and I 100% share your perspective. 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: As do pal, as do I! I once bought 4 copies of BB28 at once from Charlie (mylars) -- and those that know him know there is NO negotiation, . have since sold all four, but Charlie's probably upset he didn't still hold them......

I have some books coming back from grading in the next few weeks, but I still do not yet have a 22. I think my SC4's were the best timing on books I have ever had. Thank you again for the 6.0, but also for my BB28 "Bob Smith edition" 6.0! It is another of the gems in my collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin76 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 DC silver is really going to explode and it's starting already. I'm just wondering if they;ll be as popular as the Marvel books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumiho Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) 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. Thanks for the heads up on the other auctions... I kinda have my eye on this one for the last 9 hours..The book looks solid for the grade http://www.ebay.com/itm/311355831454?_trksid=p2055359.m1431.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Edited May 17, 2015 by gumiho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 DC silver is really going to explode and it's starting already. I'm just wondering if they;ll be as popular as the Marvel books Wow, Bob Joey, you guys have some gorgeous books! Acquiring any Marvel SA key, in any grade, is a matter of how fat your wallet is. It may be coming true for DC's as well, but it's difficult to even find key books. But it's also more satisfying when you finally land a grail.

roulette44 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 That's what makes it more fun in my mind. Run of spidey, ff, xmen - biggest limiter is budget. Showcase, JLA, flash (especially in anything about 5.0-6.0) - biggest limiter is finding the books!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
