Wizard con walking dead variants

[Pdx_glide]

Just curious to hear what you all think of why is it the walking dead variant covers from the wizard cons prices keep going down. Are people just not interested or is it cause the covers are not so great???

The Philly ones have consistently around $70 (cgc 9.8 blue)

 

The STL, NYC ones have dropped from $120/$150 (blue/ss) to $75/$110.

I attribute most of that to August being a dead season.

 

Example: TWD #27 was selling for $300 in May.

It is now selling for $250.

They're reprints that people paid a premium for and are now everywhere. As with most "con exclusives" the price is adjusting. They were never going to sustain their market entry price.

High prices for the people who "gotta have it" ASAP, then prices adjust down from there. Same holds true for most variants I think, unless it truly rare. Although, the Portland WW seems to have flattened out around $125.

Before the start of season three #27's were routinely hitting $350+. They come and go I guess.

$50 for Blue 9.8s is about what they should go for

I think the Philly Variant broke the momentum. It was just not an appealing cover.

Really? I really like it. I don't care for NY though.

I thought the Philly one was good. I really like Neal Adam's but Rick and Glenn's faces are to akward on that cover.

 

Also no a huge fan of EVS's Rick on the latest variant.

 

Hopefully a good one for Austin.

I thought it was a stupid idea at first, but I really do like seeing my comic heros working on exclusive variants.

 

I'm more interested to see what the 10th anniversary colour reprint will do to the book.

I thought the NYC was the best one. I'm biased though, being a huge Batman collector, anything Neal Adams is gold to me.

that is the cool thing about these variants. we each appreciate something different.
