Marvel Zombie Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well the Sparkle City .5 didn't hit $10,000 Did anyone honestly think it would? -J. I am actually amazed at how high it did close. It was a beyond ugly copy and incomplete to boot. +1. It petered out at just under the highest I thought it might go for, though I am a bit surprised it even broke 8k with such poor eye appeal. Looking forward to that 4 on comic link now. Any thoughts on FMV on that one? -J. I would guess in the $35k to $40k but given how high prices have been, maybe I am low That would be a smoking deal at those prices, I know for a fact certain buyers going to bid in the 55K area. 14K a point, with better eye appeal is the current market, IMHO Hmmm ... at 44 K, 12 days to go. I am already blown out of the water by bigger whales. My thrill bid didnt last long ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAMBIT Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I dunno, but IMO any bid put in with 7+ days will be outbid by auction end. unless that bid is just insane. and even then who knows! but interesting to see how much this goes!.. I'd love to own a Bats 1 some day! (never gonna happen though ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne-Tec Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) That is a GREAT page to have as it reveals Catwoman, out of disguise, for the very first time. Edited February 16, 2014 by Wayne-Tec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish75-migration Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Thank you! I wanted to grab the Joker splash page, but it went for a little more than I wanted to pay. I figured the first (out of disguise) Catwoman appearance would be an awesome addition instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne-Tec Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Thank you! I wanted to grab the Joker splash page, but it went for a little more than I wanted to pay. I figured the first (out of disguise) Catwoman appearance would be an awesome addition instead. I remember when the page came up for auction on eBay. I won the Joker splash page, but have since sold it. The PQ of the slabbed pages that were offered for sale was impressive. Though it's not a complete book, I really enjoy getting to look at the classic artwork. Some of the most historic images came from that book.
