https://www.ebay.com/itm/Scout-1-CGC-9-8-White-Pages-Eclipse-Comics-1985-/383446697984?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&nma=true&si=ekkkUw%2BT6iKMKuKobfGwWX14GJw%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc

Scout #1 CGC 9.6 advertised 9.8 in listing. $75.00

So I was tracking this and thought about bidding when it was less than $20.00.I just now noticed it says 9.8 in the listing.I was looking at the pic of the slab.I paid less than that for my real 9.8 a few months back and was wondering if Scout is catching on,is this an outlier  or did someone not notice the label?

Congrats!  Just imagine if it had been a newsstand. :kidaround:

What's the story on the Eightball #1?  Not many Copper Age books floating around at $5K. hm

Was there really a sale at 5k?  I tried finding a NM+ 1st print for months in anticipation of a signing.  I did not realize it, but there are a number of printings on par with JTHM, and I never did track down a high grade 1st print. I think @mschmidt had one UHG 1st print #1 that is now a SS 9.6.

It's just an asking price.  Probably something to draw to his other books.  I doubt it is worth that much but who knows.  The seller also has a regular price CGC 8.5 Iron Fist 14 priced at $2995 that is probably used to draw towards his other books.

No sales for $5K on the CGC 9.8 Eightball #1.  GPA has a single sale at $1,000 in July 2019.  That's why I was asking @Kevin76 about the $5K asking price.

Starslayer 10 and Grim Jack getting some love.

Great series

Yes, I just sold a Starslayer 9 & 10 (with #10 being a lower grade copy) along with a Grimjack #26 (early colour TMNT). It wasn’t exactly a record price, but they’re moving.

I sold the Eightball 1 9.8 months ago for $750 off eBay,  I put 5K on the asking price because I didn't want to take the book down right away and I know on one would pay it. and since eBay does investigate as to why someone has taken down their listing and they check the email messages to see if you've sold it offline and they'd issue a warning/suspension, so to avoid that, leave the item up with a stupid price no one would pay.

So I should list my (2) 9.9s and all of the 9.8s I used to own (at outrageous prices) just to draw viewers for my other books?  :insane:

Is there something going on with Thundercats? I have a handful of watchers on a few (probably unimportant) issues that have been available for probably a few years.
