GoldenPRGuy Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Is it just me or do listings like this p--s you off? Archie 4 One picture, no details, no feedback, and a need to specifically call out the fact that it's not a scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadzukes Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) CC Archie 1 1.8 went for $25,500!!! What a price. It even had a little CT and glue on the cover. 33 bids but I don't know if it was just 2 guys duking it out at the end? Archie is still going strong.

gadzukes Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) Full Raw Archie collection sold tonight on ebay. Archie 1 is 1.5-1.8 went for $12,100 (great price, the winner must be ecstatic) http://www.ebay.com/itm/Archie-Comics-1-1942-MLJ-Golden-Age-Classic-sku-81051-/371597516888?hash=item5684f02058:g:BZAAAOSwy5ZXCxn0&autorefresh=true Archie 2 in about 3.0 went for $2650 Archie 3 in about 2.5 went for $860 Archie 4 in about 1.8 went for $555 Archie 5 in about 3.5 went for $761 Archie 6 in about 3.0 went for $482 Archie 7 in about 3.0 went for $482 Archie 8 in about 2.0 (I love this cover) went for $561 Archie 9 in about 2.0 went for $456 Archie 10 in about 5.0 went for $483 Archie 11 in about 2.0 went for $180 Archie 12 in about 5.0 went for $322 Archie 13 in about 1.0 went for $180 Archie 14 in about 4.0 went for $153 Archie 15 in about 3.0 went for $104 Archie 16 in about 6.0 went for $225 (I won this one... I hope it grades out as a 7.0) Archie 17 in about 5.0 went for $210 Archie 18 in about 1.0 went for $53 Archie 19 in about 3.5 went for $99 Archie 20 in about 4.0 went for $94 and Archie 50 in about 1.5 went for $208 These were SO much fun to watch finish. I bid on almost all of them, but the only one I won was Archie 16. I was the under bidder on a handful. I would have bid on #1 but I just didn't have the resources right now. I think #1 went low.

ThothAmon Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I won a few of them. Some of the early books with detached covers seemed like they went for very strong prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman_fan Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 ComicConnect has a 6.5 blue label Archie #1 coming up in their next auction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadzukes Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 I won a few of them. Some of the early books with detached covers seemed like they went for very strong prices. I agree, lots of strong prices, but then the #1 went kind of low I thought. I was expecting $15k-$16k on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenPRGuy Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Late to the party as usual ... been moving into our new home and I am spoon-ing exhausted! I was watching these end the other night and did consider throwing in a last minute bid on the A1, but I thought, "Andrew, you already have 2, who needs 3?" Todd ... haha Anyway, while I agree the A1 went a little low (and I think that was due to the lack of detail and images in the auction), I actually thought the other prices were a bit soft. The A2 was ok, but the rest just seemed a little light for me. Am I the only one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadzukes Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 Less than a month ago the CC Archie 1 CGC 1.8 went for $25,500. That one even had glue on the cover. I pegged this #1 as a 1.5-1.8 so $12,100 seems really low low low. Of course that CC Archie seemed high high high. I want a do over so I can pick up this ebay copy.

Sqeggs Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I suppose the guy who won the CC auction was no longer in the market for a copy in this grade range. So perhaps the price fell to what the third highest bidder in the CC auction was willing to pay. Or maybe many collectors who are purchasing five-figure books don't frequent the eBay listings much, but concentrate on the offerings from the auction houses. In other words: yanevahknow!

You're right. I own 3 Archie 1s so I don't feel the need to bid on them any more. The CC winner probably doesn't feel the need right now. It's a smaller pool of bidders so I guess the price stays lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, there is always an assumption that a new high for a popular book is suddenly the bench mark, but it always doesn't work that way. Sometimes people just overpay because they want the book NOW.
