In today's market, what something sold for last year is not relevant now. Old sales, like old threads on this forum, are great for identifying books that used to be all the rage...and could be again. 10 and 15 year old discussions on this forum have proven to be invaluable.

Where is Hero for Hire or Marvel Premiere prices compared to pre show. And yes I do know they are silver books, they are used as examples only. I have a couple of nice Logan Run #6 CGC 9.2, I expect they will go up in price soon only to drop a week after the movie than to slowly go up. It is like the stock market and gambling had a baby. Fun and frustrating. That's exactly the formula. That's why a book two months ago may no longer be relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't cite anything sold last year, I was talking about apparent increased activity in views and watches on a book (in the last week) that has never really held much market interest (except those of old enough to have bought it contemporaneous with the movie).

Grib Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Any word on how Black Panther #1 is selling? With the movie going strong I would think the book is heating up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very well based on the recent sales in GPA. Some grades seem to have doubled after the movie (at least from a last sale price). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooter99 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Why is Worlds Finest 198 fetch over $1,000 in 9.6+? Black cover and only few ultra high grade copies? 3rd flash/superman race doesn't seem to be that big of a deal, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
