Popular Post travizb Posted January 17 Popular Post Share Posted January 17 I unknowingly picked up a double cover of the 1984 #1 Transformers newsstand. It recently came back a 9.6 OW/W from CGC. I don't see any sales (ebay/gocollect) or population information on this type of error variant. Any thoughts here to how to value this or where I can go to get a rough value? Thanks for the feedback! trademarkcomics, BuraddoRun, Chaz G. and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm aware that gpaanalysis keeps track of multiple cover sales, but idk how often this book has had them or if paying a gpaanalysis subscription for the one book would be worth it. It is the only place that can look back far enough with details that "I'm aware of!". Maybe someone with a paid subscription will come along to help out? littledoom and travizb 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts here to how to value this or where I can go to get a rough value? Thanks for the feedback! Popular book. NO double covers on GPA with plenty of sales records over the past 20+ years. Newsstand...double cover...you can name your price. I've sold lots of double covers. My general rule of thumb for pricing is 2x going value in grade if there are any other double cover sales on GPA in any grade. If it's possibly one of a kind, 3x+ going price in grade. If it's a popular book 4x would be the least I would place it for sale with best offer. So 9.6s go for $400. I would put it up for no less than $1500. My list price for this would probably be $2999 and would take 2000. 9.8 newsstands go for $3000 and there are way more than ONE 9.8 newsstand out there. Just be prepared to wait a while to sell it. Someone out there will want it and have the money(maybe me if it's up long enough). Otherwise put it in your "vault" and cherish it!!! This is an absolutely AWESOME book!

Wow -- I wasn't expecting that type of premium. This is great. I might just have to put this in my time capsule.

Popular Post trademarkcomics Posted January 23 Popular Post Share Posted January 23 Well, I finally found my favorite issue with a double cover and newsstand(as it was when I bought it from my local convenience store in 1983!) SO... that means my 9.8 direct has been moved to my business inventory! Just put it on today!

But there are no signs of damage in and around the staple so I believe it was never inserted(since what kid carefully cuts the insert out just to get to the tattz?).

Two watchers on it. One is Cosmic Spidey and #2 is probably the owner of the other 9.8 double cover. cosmic-spider-man and BlowUpTheMoon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
