What I am saying is that New Mutants 14 should sell, by anyone, to anyone, for a only few dollars (like any other random, non-key issue of the run), because its current "value" is based on an outright lie that has propagated all over the place.

That just summed up the modern market the last few years.

 

So everyone agrees to start selling New Mutants #14 for $2?
Good? good.

Problem solved.

I think this differentiates today's bubble to that of the 90's. The internet has become a tool to spread ones opinion on a book as "gospel". Aside from vintage keys, I don't see today's prices to be sustainable.

I bought a NM 14 in nice shape for $3.  Thanks for telling people they should sell cheap

And when people realize the truth and it stops selling so well?

You mean like when people realize that X Men 266 is NOT the first appearance of Gambit? Oh wait... people already know that and continue to pay through the nose for an ultra common issue that is a clear 2nd appearance.

UXM 266 is clearly the first full appearance of Gambit.

There is absolutely no argument to be made that NM 14 is the first Magik. It is a complete lie.

He's (somewhat) relevant in 2.5% of the Annual story. If that's not the definition of "brief", I don't know what is.

And your point is what? lol

(What percentage is Darkseid's first app in Jimmy Olsen? .000000000001%? I mean he's in a monitor in 1/25 of a panel in the whole freakin' book.) :roflmao:

emphasis added.

What is your point? SPJO 134 is obviously also a brief appearance, and noted as such by everybody. (shrug)

It doesn't matter that it's "brief". It's not a 1-2 panel cameo, therefore it is his FIRST appearance. Not UXM 266.

Except that JO 134 is priced like the 1st App . . . regardless of any notation.

Since when? It always matters.

And "brief appearance" only matters when you're making love,:roflmao:

There are "cameo" and first appearances. A cameo is a 1-2 panel shot. Anything else is a first appearance. Gambit is in no less than 14 panels in XAnnual and has a speaking part. That is a 1st appearance, not a cameo as CGC has erroneously labeled it. Show me another cameo in which a character appears in 14 panels and I'll concede the point.

First appearances aren't priced. Books are valued based on supply and demand. First appearances are only one factor (albeit a large one) that affect only half of the equation.

How many :censored: times do I have to post this? :facepalm:

No.

He's relevant to one page of a 40-page story. So what if he's (partially) drawn into the background in a few more group shots?

I agree (conditionally) as you both (you and CGC) have it wrong. A "cameo" can never be a 1st Appearance, as a cameo is defined as a unexpected brief appearance of a known person or character. Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon make cameo appearances in comics. Many super-heroes do also, but they (like Reagan and Nixon, and the Beatles for that matter) have already made a first appearance elsewhere. :sumo:
