KirbyJack Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I'm glad that collecting low grade is still a possibility for the likes of me. They're just so very cool. Congrats to all the determined new owners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydenTO Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Nice, I was just about to check where that one landed... Looks like that's another one I will have to get in lower grade. Congratz to seller and buyer - super nice copy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Oh yeah...a cool $1300... A boardie win?? 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. 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 More just straight up atlas than pre-hero but that beautiful red ST #60 9.0W went for $3100.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Holy 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??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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...... I paid good money for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 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) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
