Jim, you can also have an idea of prices (at least for books which come up frequently, i.e. not rare GA books) by registering at Heritage Auctions (registration is free) and searching past sales. It does not give a full view, but at least you get an idea.

 

When I tried to sell my Fantastic Four #3 CGC I overpriced it, and as I priced it more in line with the last sales, I sold it immediately. :)

Good point. Even E-bay has a search that allows to search for 'sold' deals.

I hate to ask because it screams newbie (which I am) But what is GPA?

And very nice 4.0 JKING If I didn't have one being graded as we speak I would be all over it for that price....thanks and GLWYS

It's a web site that tracks sales data for CGC graded comics: http://comics.gpanalysis.com/. Membership is cheap and well worth it.

Honestly Jim, I don’t think the price is too high (and you even offered a shipping discount) since, if not fot the light pen marks (which are not so obtrusive), the book presents a lot better than a VG.

 

It‘s probably just that it‘s not exaggeratedly sought after at the moment, so it probably would take just some patience. (thumbs u

 

(You made me laugh with your girlfriend’s anedocte… :D ).

In terms of books not selling fairly quickly (especially for hotter books) - the book is priced over market. Hot marvel books priced at market value seem to fly off the shelves here on the boards. Best of luck with your sale!

As I said, it’s priced over market for a VG, but the book definitely presents better than a VG, and most people overprice Silver Surfer #1 in most grades – have a look on eBay and you’ll see. :P

It's a CGC 4.0 ... prices realized are very easy to come by. There's not much pixie dust involved. Short of one sale in 2002, this is more than any price in GPA. Relative to recent averages, it's about 50% higher.
