WolverineX Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 1 hour ago, Shrevvy said: I don't. I had one 9.8 that I sold a few years ago. I always liked X-men #94 better. All but the CGC 9.4 I picked up earlier this year. The #94 felt like an under valued book so I picked up a couple extra copies. I did not expect the price to move like it has, but I am not complaining. The raw came from a local shop and I will be sending it to CGC. I would guess it is an 8.0ish. The low grade copy is my reading copy that I have in a short box somewhere. It is probably G-VG range. I will likely sell or trade all but the 9.4 and low grade raw at some point (not ready yet). Yeah I'm the same way. Have a GSX1 but way prefer my X 94. You did a great job timing this rise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better lucky than good! I almost didn't buy the raw. In fact, I almost flipped it here on the boards for a couple dollars profit after buying it. About two weeks later it started its upward rise. Glad I held onto that one. 8.0s are bringing ~4x what I would have sold it for a couple months ago. WolverineX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes life gives us a gift... historically x94s were equivalent to gsx1s but not sure where this will end up. It's been fun watching it rise though.

I don't know maybe that's changed a little now in 9.8 but I think for the most part 94s have always been higher in top grade because of that census number.

This thing is so fast moving right now I don't think the market has had a chance to settle yet on where it is on X94 9.8 WolverineX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are simply delusional if you think "white pages" on the label results in a 15-20k difference in price. -J. You are completely right except for the sales data part of it.

I assume in this Market if one of those get listed, they would go above a GSX 1 9.8? Edited May 2, 2021 by Wolverinex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mjolnir! Posted May 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2021 1 minute ago, Wolverinex said: Jealous. You are going to have to share it now Right now it's tucked in a safety deposit box along with my other most precious gems to include Giant X1 9.6 and Hulk 181 9.2. To give you the short story, I got extremely lucky back in 2011 and bought X94 raw at a local comic store for $1100. Afterwards I got an itch and bought the other gems off e-bay the following year. I never owned a Hulk 181 and decided I wanted to own a piece of history for the heck of it. At the time I thought I was out of my mind the money I dished out for those books. Now I feel like a mad genius somehow but know I'm just lucky I bought them and held onto them in honor of my childhood passion of collecting comics. Buying all those comics back in the day and being fortunate enough to hold on to them throughout my lifetime has compounded into some serious investment capital I can cash in. Luckily I don't need the money which is why I've always been in a hold pattern. Skunkboy, ADAMANTIUM, WolverineX and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
