Old Overstreet Price Guides

It seems to be a well-kept secret, but we feature a price guide to the past editions of the Guide in the back of every annual volume. Just check the table of contents.

Too bad the prices are way out of whack with reality.

 

Except the first couple of issues, the rest are at Mile High prices.

 

Just MHO.

The first couple are still overpriced. I got a VF/NM copy of the Blue #1 on eBay years ago for around $300 and the guide says that it's "worth" $1,500. I have never paid anything close to the NM value for these books.

Then you will never wrestle them from my cold dead hands...

I think I paid around $10 for a NM copy of #11 last month. They never sell for anything near the guide prices... I don't know where they get those from.

Neither do they.

agree the pricing seems out of whack, but one can't deny the historical and nostalgic value of these books. i bought my #1 (white) front bud plant about

6-7 years ago. bought #'s 2-5 from my old local comic shop about 10 years ago. my first purchase was #6 so the first five seem more unique/valuable to me.

 

i often find myself using them to research prices or questions. to me, they're like the Gerbers; if you're serious, you got 'em..........

hMMMMM,, maybe next year I'll take time to read some of the

other parts of the softback, before I take the Xacto knife, cut the

front and back covers off, rip out all the ads and editorial sections,

clean up the spine, then tape it all back together neatly......

Think maybe I killed that NM value????
