Oh yeah...a cool $1300... :applause:

A boardie win?? hm

 

I was underbidder. I had a lower bid and then got pissed off and bid 1200 to try win since I got decked on the others. You can see how well that turned out. :tonofbricks:

 

Oh well. At least I hopefully made tsimanga or whoever the seller was some extra money. Now I can go back to reality and start being cheap again doh!

Yeah, that was my book too. Thanks for the congrats. But it was a tough decision, auctioning off all of my HG pre-hero books. I planned on keeping them but my collecting focus has shifted to unslabbed, and these are all too nice to bust out of the cases. It's not like I bought these off the rack though...lol... I paid good money for them.

Holy :censored::censored:

 

Up until now all this talk about big results has just been an appetizer. I present you the main course:

 

Strange Tales #93 8.5 OWW $2322 ????

 

The wax people? Seriously???

 

I'm rarely shocked by the prices that uber-HG copies of pre-hero Marvels will bring. The combination of rarity in grade and passion amongst their collectors is a dangerous one. I'm just glad the 6.0-7.5 where I prefer to swim are still available to folks in my tax bracket.

 

And congrats on your sales, Tsimanga!

well yeah I get that, and I've only been collecting these a short while so I don't have the experience of many here but in my mind there its an 8.5 and a later issue... but what do I know. (I personally have a much easier time understanding 2.5k for JIM 56 8.5 than for ST93)

I would agree with you, but it only takes two bidders to get into territory others would consider crazyland.
