Exactly. LCS bins are full of mid through HG copies of common issues that everyone passes on. It is only certain keys that are really worth chasing now.

I'm glad people are passing up those books...I think the really high grade copies of the common books will rise in value well above the regular copies.  Don't get me wrong, we're talking about a CPV being double the value and it still selling for $20-$30.  What's fun is I'll have picked up the book for only $3...I'd make a good profit margin (even though selling a book would barely pat for a supper out ;) ).  I also get to give a clear mission to keep the girl busy at cons or when I visit a random LCS ;)

Latest Clink auction win. I threw in a lowball bid and won a cool book at a great price. :acclaim:

Here's a smattering of what I grabbed yesterday.  After having taught my woman the history and rules of CPVs, I sent her into the bins to search out hidden treasures, and as usual she did not disappoint :)

The SW 4 was actually left behind...it was maybe an 8.0 with all the spine ticks.

:cry: another OO of mine and for the life of me it had no tattoos as I would have never removed them.

And this has also been discussed here in that I as well bought these issues off the rack and I never saw any Tattooz either in these books.

It’s a shame that while a production defect like an extra insert or an extra cover would be like striking gold, a missing insert gets you the GLOD!!!

That's the one. I know Clink doesn't like listing books that sell for less than $300 in their Featured (Feb, May, August & Nov.) auctions so I didn't think I had much of a chance but my $249 bid just barely held up. :bigsmile:

I really appreciate you stating and not minding me finding out the price too. I don't have gpaanalysis as i dont sell that much, and sales are scarce on ebay to know fmv. It is truly appreciated  :)

That's a score imo! Glad you made the grade. :whee:

No worries. (thumbsu

I've had GPA for it seems like forever, best $10 a month I spend. I use it all the time. 

No Batman #357 9.6 CPV sales listed on GPA but the 2 9.8 CPV's sold this year went for $660 & $840 while the two US newsstands went for $1092 & $1099! :jawdrop:

note: Clink sales are NOT listed on GPA. hm

Even the last two ubiquitous Direct copies went for $798 & $600. :whatthe:  I think there is still a lot of confusion among collectors about CPV's and other price variants. Oh well, more primo opportunities for me. :yeehaw: I hope they stay sleepy....very sleepy.......so......very........sleepy.........

Lol and thanks for the additional info!

Idk if it was due to the app of croc that escape me in cameos or what not.

I remember when it was explained to me. In comparison though ms marvel, warlock, and etc have a ton of cameos that killer croc really shouldn't seem that complicated lol

And yet I'm patiently waiting too, for it and several others  :cheers: that "can stay cheap!"
