THE HULK #181 CLUB

428 posts in this topic

I have a random question for y'all. What is with the interest in DD #115 and Thor #229(going for multiples of the issues around them)? Yes, I am aware they contain ads for Hulk 181 in them. But they are touted by many on eBay as the first "preview" of Wolverine...when they are most certainly not. Since how could they be when they both have November cover dates and Hulk 180 is October. And that has not only his first full costumed appearance but it's not just an ad.

 

Considering he had already appeared in an actual story the month prior, I just don't understand the hollow fervor over an ad page.

A :bump: for the top book of the BA, which has experienced unrelenting demand and price growth all year.

 

8.0's have been fetching over $1600...

...a 9.0 just set an all time GPA high:

....another 9.2 just went for a smidge under $3K...

....9.4's are now consistently going for between $3250-$3500....

...and a 9.6's have recently set two year highs, going for $5k+...

And of course the 9.8 that just went for $16K at auction a couple of weeks ago.

:ohnoez:

 

The book has simply been unstoppable all year, in essentially all grades, with 10-50% price increases all year. And there doesn't seem to be an end in sight, particularly in 9.4 grades and down into the mid grades.

 

Not bad for a dead guy. :insane:

I'm bringing 6 copies to the store for Christmas eve lol

 

Gator, what is the percent breakdown of the copies you've sold, more or less, slabbed to raw?

 

-J.

Raw copies are tougher for me to find. Probably 85 slabbed and 9 raw

Nice keep it going!

 

Interesting to hear that they have almost all been slabbed copies though. hm

 

-J.

I would love to buy more raws, just so rarely offered to me...
