mysterio Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 There must have been a mass power outage for this book to fall to me for the ridiculous lowball bid I had on it. I guess this makes up for one of those other times things didn't bounce my way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RICK STARR Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Awful quiet here. Is everyone still shell-shocked, like I am, over the prices after the HA and LINK auctions.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korvac Saga Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Awful quiet here. Is everyone still shell-shocked, like I am, over the prices after the HA and LINK auctions.... A combination of a poor economy + monthly Clink auctions have lead directly to such a dismal showing. The market just can't absorb these hundreds of books every month at the prices they've previously commanded. Also having all 3 auctions end in the SAME freakin' week didn't help either. And consignors are plenty pissed about it all, particularly at Clink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korvac Saga Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Back to the books: this book was part of a 3 collector deal that sent another prehero, cash + a slab to be named later to the participating parties. Another upgrade: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosland Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I thought the pre-hero prices were quite good at HA and LINK. I certainly lost some due to under-bidding (and won some too...). There were some exceptional offerings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marvel_runs Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I've been too busy to post any new books on here for quite a while, but have enjoyed the books that othes have posted recently. I got some books back from CGC this week. Seems like they graded this batch pretty strictly. My flash went out on my camera and I've been too busy to get a new one, so sorry for the less than stellar pics. These are all keepers. Three were upgrades and two were gap fillers. At some point (if/when I get a break), I plan to post my undercopies in the FS thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korvac Saga Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Great books, Pete!! (thumbs u I've always loved that JIM #78 cover with the shadowy "Loki prototype". Those 2 Everett STs are great + what an early Kirby cover on that ST #68. Doesn't even look like his work, maybe Christopher Rules' inking.
