With a CGC highest graded copy of a book like this and with only 145 total copies graded to date, they should throw it into a CL auction and hope that some deep pocketed sucker astute buyer suffering from a severe case of FOMO like the bidder who paid $44K for this copy of Transformers 1 with some 3,300 slabbed copies to date will snap it up for a mere $50K: https://www.comiclink.com/auctions/item.asp?back=%2FAUCTIONS%2FSEARCH.ASP%3FFocusedOnly%3D1%26where%3Dauctions%26title%3Dtransformers%2B1%26ItemType%3DCB%26CGC%3DYES%26CBCS%3DYES%23Item_1452303&id=1452303&itemType=0 Edited March 25, 2021 by lou_fine InfantTerrible and GreatCaesarsGhost 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at how much a NM #98 and IH #181 in 9.9 are worth now!!! And back then people (including myself) were laughing at how much the buyers paid for these respective books. Now they're laughing at us lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll guess a little more conservatively at $43k. Went for over $50k after all. Seems like a market changer now but I still think it will be viewed as underpriced in the not to distant future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are the Bat 1 CGC .5 estimation The Bat 1 3.0 with a lot of tape sold for $192,000 If Bronze and Copper Keys comics are starting to sell for insane prices it's only fitting some love is shown to the Golden Age.

Ltpink2002 Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Batman 1 5.0 for $360,000 unattractive 3.0 for $192,000 0.5 for $51,600 Wow, but appropriate when compared to the crazy prices on those Marvel SA keys. lou_fine and GreatCaesarsGhost 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm glad the Golden Age books are having some exciting price movements, should be a lot more when compared to Silver/Bronze books. I'm happy for Leroy and anyone else who owns a Batman #1. lhcomics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Transformers 1 sale for $44K took place way way back in February and in today's hyper fast moving CA marketplace, that's like a whole lifetime ago and that Transformers book has probably already moved way ahead of this oldy moldy fugly 0.5 Bat 1 at a price point of only $51,600.

Daveb25 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Anyone else notice all of the complete, restored bat1’s have disappeared from eBay besides the 9.6? Cheapest complete bat1 left is the voldy 4.5 that had restoration removal for $195k. Dunno how it managed to nab an unrestored label considering the previous label under cgc said cover cleaned if I remember correctly. I wonder if the days of a 5 figure complete bat1 are passing.

I’m sure you mean with cover, but I’ve been watching a coverless complete blue label Bat 1 sit on the bay for $28k. Not mine. It’s priced about triple the last sale of a coverless blue label, but I’m actually a bit surprised it hasn’t sold. https://www.ebay.com/itm/164702260365 Edited April 29, 2021 by GreatCaesarsGhost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
