divad Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I can see the 9.8 census being triple what it is now five years from now I can see this happening within 6 months . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BD-Punisher Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Let's see. Today is 10/28/13 and BA#12 census says there are 104 books in CGC 9.8 (none higher), 91 books in CGC 9.6 and 297 total books graded. I personally doubt it. The CGC process is not that fast and I (for one) do not believe there will be as many 9.8's found and graded as some on the boards do. Time will tell who is right and who is wrong. It will also be interesting to see how market prices do for this book between now and the next summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I have no question it will do well in the short term. I just think it will come back to earth afterwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me if you don't see a long term supply response you are drinking something (pass the bottle ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronty Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 when to pop reports go down? im guessing never. But they don't always triple within some point from 6 months to 5 years out do they? Reading is fundamental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThoseBackPages Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 RIF! nice yes, they will only increase, just as the 9.8's will go up, there will be 9.9's eventually. bet on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valiantman Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 when do pop reports go down? im guessing never. Universal blue label numbers have been known to drop when the Signature Series numbers go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BD-Punisher Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 CGC 9.8 on eBay is at $700 (23 bids) with 4d+ to go! Still think it will end at $900+. just not that many 9.8's out there AND for sale. http://www.ebay.com/itm/251367119727?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkdrawer Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Universal Blue 9.8s dropped from 98 to 97 copies. Now even more rarer than before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BD-Punisher Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 How does the Census drop for 9.8's? Does CGC know when someone breaks open a slab? Someone who is smarter than me, please help explain this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanfingh Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Probably a crack, sign, and resubmit. How anyone can do that with the kind of money in play is beyond me. CGC loves those dudes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
