Popular Post papasmurf_y2k Posted June 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 12, 2021 I’ve had these since the early 90’s, bought as a teenager. FINALLY, sent in for professional grading. I remember paying $90 for the GSX but cannot recall the #94. Math Teacher, Ceito, southern cross and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much of the score deduction does that account for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only part that stings is I sold this 3.0 for the exact same price I sold my 8.0 for last year (just before prices took off like cocaine fuelled rockets) WolverineX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Date stamp I believe a small unobtrusive date stamp would have no impact on this CGC 9.0 graded copy, but that larger than normal greased pencil date probably DID have an impact on the final grade.

Sweet key even with the strip off. Yes, was not expecting to see this comic when Ed gave me the lead, but very happy to have found it in the stack, made the drive more than worthwhile. Thanks Ed!

You are correct, it is no longer a $67,900 book. It is now a $72,000 book Jokes aside, I think we can all agree that this book has gone nuclear. One year ago this was regularly selling in the $13-15K range. Whether any particular copy now sells for $47K or $72K or likely somewhere in between, that is several hundred percent growth in ONE year. And this isn't one sale, it has now been 5 sales of $47K and above. The nice thing about GSX1 is it trades more often than most books in this price range so you can see how it's doing across a larger sample size. lou_fine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
