AtlasFan Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Astounding! After a 20+ year search I still need 3, and you snag 'em all in one deal? I, sir, am a wiggley worm, sir. Ah, I see another alumni of good ol' PU is here on the boards....and remember: "A wiggly worm, sir, is the lowest lump of whale blubber in the ocean depth, and nothing is lower than a freshman at Prinstone U..."

RICK STARR Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Anybody catch last weeks Heritage weekly auction? Bunch of slabbed pre-heroes mainly JIM and Strange Tales. I was able to grab the JIM 73 (8.5) but that was it. The Strange Tales just went out of sight. The ST 100 in 9.2 went for over $2000 including buyer's premium. The ST 87 and 88 graded 8.5 each were over graded!! Rounded corners, edge wear, etc. looked more like 7.0-7.5 at best. Anyone pick up anything?

adamstrange Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 The ST 100 in 9.2 went for over $2000 including buyer's premium. Definitely surprising to me, but then there is some competition when you are talking 9.2 and above and all it takes is 2 bidders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasFan Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 ST 100 is very tought to get in HG. I have see a few, but a lot of them have nasty chipping...like my copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously Jay, that book is killer...so it's got 3 binder holes, it's still probably a 9.2/9.4 qualified...I forget, do these get green labels? KILLER KOPY I say!

turtleboy23 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Did anyone see the 9.8 TTA 30 on comiclink for $20,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I think Roy (r1970d) mentioned that he had seen it at a small show in Southern California, though it had already been sold for an undisclosed amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtleboy23 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I was flying home from a national racquetball tournament and missed the end. Only one of my low bids won. It was the ST 91 7.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's correct...someone snatched it up first thing at the Yorba Linda 1-day Con 3 weeks ago...for an undisclosed sum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
