Woah.

From the shallow end of the pool. Arrived yesterday with a couple other books. Under ten bucks!

Damn, that's trippy! It's like Frisky Animals meets Twin Peaks.

The 2.5 could still end up looking like a deal in the long run. I don't know why the 6.5 seller didn't hold out for more. He should have auctioned it at one of the big auction houses. 

The other place's Contact #12 6.5 sold for $5451 +3%: https://www.mycomicshop.com/search?ItemID=54555606

Wish I had a little more money; some good deals (to me) in that auction.

On the flip side, this Popular Teen-Agers had a strong showing.

I was a little stunned at the hammer on that one.

I didn't even see that one until I scrolled through the ending prices today. The non-reprint version doesn't come up very often, but (IMO) there are better Cole romance covers. Perhaps a completionist?

I overspent as it is and now going back see things maybe I should have bid on. Damn GA and your general scarcity for cool books!

I assume the ebay sale of the Contact 12 harmed the MCS sale in the same grade. CGC versus CBCS hammer prices play in too. I guess we will see if any more Contact 12s show up in the near future.

Someone got a decent deal on the Blue Bolt 105. It was undergraded at a raw 5.0 and went for the same price as the recent graded 4.0.
