Cyclops Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Marvel Preview #7 is heating up: http://www.ebay.com/csc/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=marvel+preview+7&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc I picked up a couple of copies a few months ago for 7 bucks a piece. Needless to say, they won't be mine for much longer. Personally I couldn't care less for Rocket Raccoon.

PeterPark Posted December 27, 2012 Author Share Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) Is it me or is marvel premiere 47 cooling? marvel premiere or dc presents...was marvel premiere 47 ever hot...? **EDIT** Wow!

the blob Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) X Men # 141 & 142 are showing as going up in value significantly on GPA and I've had several enquiries from people looking for copies. at shows in the mid-80s dealers had huge stacks of these at every table. heavily speculated on books. with that said, they still wanted $3-$5 a pop for them even back then, which was real money in 1985. just makes me wonder if quantity will eventually swamp demand. then again, ASM 300 and FF 48 had nice movie run-ups.

the blob Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Anyone notice any movement on the Marvel Presents books from 3 on? Criminey, I had tons and tons of these and for a year have been sticking them in every ebay grab bag bronze lot I sell. In the past had problems getting $1 a pop for those books sold in sets. I guess I gave up on them too soon! Of course, i have plenty left... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not for a while. LoDK had the same issue with the 11-15 storyline that was the basis for the movie. Sets sold easy for $50 for quite a while before demanded slowed down.

It's common as dirt, Rocket Raccoon isn't what I would call a major character and it's not even his first appearance. Edit: In fact, I literally just got one in the mail Edited December 28, 2012 by Halo65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troydivision1 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Now we just need CGC to change their labels to reflect that MP7 is Rocket's first appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the lodk blip lasted for about 5 seconds (ok, not actually, but it felt like it). i ran out and pulled a bunch of those from dollar boxes around brooklyn within days of reading (here) they were "hot" only to see the prices had taken a huge dive. maybe they popped up again later.

the blob Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 the marvdel preview 7 has a gorgeous cover...the hulk 271 is ugly as dirt. i have tons of hulks from that era, but no 271, probably because the cover looked so lame i never bothered buying it out of the 25 cent box.

HouseofComics.Com Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Great idea for a thread! Marvel Premiere 47 was always kind of a surprisingly expensive book in guide anyway, so that might've helped it settle in pretty high. I'm not sure if Daredevil 111 is getting enough credit--seems like a cooler character that will be in a cooler movie than most of the other newly hot books. Surprising that DC Comics Presents 47 does that well! Why would it sell for so much more than the Masters of the Universe miniseries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would it sell for so much more than the Masters of the Universe miniseries? It's a first app, and it is in quasi-continuity, being a Superman team-up and all.

Do people give extra $$ for a licensed property being in quasi-continuity? I guess I always thought the Masters of the Universe 1st app was the bonus preview insert ala the Teen Titans one from DCP 26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonker Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 DCCP 47 came out about 4 months earlier than the MotU preview that appeared in a handful of comics cover-dated November 1982 (Detective 520, for example). #47 seems to be a genuine sleeper. I first was surprised over its eBay going price a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HouseofComics.Com Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Thanks, I was going to look it up but figured I'd check back in here first. Good to know. I see Overstreet has it broken out nicely now--has anyone noticed that the guide does seem to be catching up to some stuff and at least breaking out books that should be? I've been seeing this for a few things lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Days Of Future Past actually sold for decent money before the movie was announced and now it's gone into movie hype levels. Even if it drops back to previous value, it's no disaster for anyone trying to sell them (unless they paid silly speculation prices). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
