kimik Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 (edited) Looks like there were two fake sales of GSX 1 CGC 9.4 W at $29,500 and $22,400 on eBay last week? https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=giant+size+x-men+1+cgc+9.4&LH_Complete=1 Edited May 30, 2021 by kimik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TroyT7986 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 If I have a CBCS Giant Size X-Men am I allowed to post it? Cover is faded, but the rest of the book looks clean..wonder if I had CGC regrade it if it may bump it up .5 or better with a C&P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really can't say whether CGC would get you a higher grade with a pressing or without, but personally I'd have it regraded just for the consistency with the rest of my collection. Only CBCS I have is a Wolverine #1 witnessed sign by Claremont and Rubinstein. If only witnessed signings were transferable between the companies I'd love to regrade it with that CGC Wolverine graphic.

Not sure what the max grade is for a sun-faded book, but it’s at least 6.0 MGsimba77 and TroyT7986 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Thurgood Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 @TroyT7986 The pressing could fix that packing curl and maybe get you an extra 0.5. The book presents well otherwise. TroyT7986 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lou_fine Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 For all of you X-Men aficionados here, isn't GSXM 1 supposedly worth more than X-Men 94 in grade? If this is indeed the case as I would supsect, why is GoCollect showing a FMV for GSXM 1 in CGC 9.8 at $60K which makes sense to me, and yet shows a FMV for XM 94 in CGC 9.8 at a substantially higher price point of $78K when I can't think of any sales in that price range?

Popular Post Mjolnir! Posted June 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2021 Finally made time to visit my sweet heart at the safety deposit box today. Brought my usual chocolates and flowers to her. We are still madly in love with one another. We kissed several times and this time I took pictures.

Yes for the most part except for 9.8s. Maybe GSX has cought up lately in 9.8 but I don't think there's enough recent data on 94 in 9.8 to say. 94s don't sell too often in 9.8. I'm not sure how they arrive at 78k for X94? I mean I wouldn't be surprised if that was accurate I just don't know of any recent sales in that range. There was the recent 63k 9.8 on HA and > 20k 9.6 on Clink. I think if Clink had a 78k sale they would be featuring it on the front page -- so it wasn't there.

I think if Clink had a 78k sale they would be featuring it on the front page -- so it wasn't there. Looks like nothing more than as assumption on their part as I also don't see any sale of an actual XM 94 in CGC 9.8 above that HA $63K result. My bet is that they are simply looking at all of the GSXM 1 sales in the $60K with more than a whopping 200 copies in CGC 9.8, and then assume that XM94 must be worth more than that since it has only a relative fractional 37 copies in the same equivalent CGC 9.8 grade. Interesting to note that while checking the CC archives for CGC 9.8 graded sales of XM 94, looks like some buyer lost a lot of money on this book here as they paid an astounding $26,500 way way back in April of 2010 when it was only 1 of 5 copies in highest graded 9.8 condition, and then resold it only a short 1 year+ later in December of 2011 for only $10,399 when it was then 1 of 11 copies in highest graded 9.8 condition.
