I guess the only thing to compare it to is what would a TEC 27 in 0.5 sell for then try figure it with AF15. These are huge first apps we are dealing with and a meteoric rise in price . It’s scary . I sold my 2.0 for 14K two years ago now it may be 35-40K???? Nuts 

Entry level, complete Tec 27's  (even coverless) would start at $100K  (at least) ........

You are not getting a complete unrestored very poor copy for under 200k

Complete coverless Tec 27's 115-125k (depending on eye appeal & PQ)

Coverless missing the centerfold probably max out at 100k (depending on eye appeal and PQ)

Provenance plays a part in their somewhere as well.  How much ?  I don't know.  maybe 10K minimum. (Kane copy, DC file copy, Robinson copy)

There was recently a thread in the GA section where a boardie listed a complete coverless on eBay and got offers exceeding $100k.  So that book is up there in any forum.

He had offers up to 120k I believe.  light tan to cream PQ and slight pieces missing from pages 2-7 (slightly effects Bats story)  Great copy. Hope he gets his price.  Tec 27 and Action 1 are on a whole other playing field $ wise

I was including restored in my quote, but yes - unrestored well north of 100K

Ouch that’s some serious coin

Tec 27 and Action 1 in any way ,shape,  or form (as long as they have the bats and supes story ) are in their own stratosphere .  pound for pound .    Other mega keys can't touch them

The market is as the masses believe despite the prophets' posits and the profiteers' posturing's.  As long as there are 2 high-rollers in the final seconds of any auction pushing each other up and up and up :ohnoez: (and assuming no shill bidders and scams) the sky is the limit on certain holy grails.  In the end AF15 was always the Action #1 of the SA and in time only a very small fraction of comic collectors will be able to afford even a lowly point 5.  Plus when I see collectors dishing out 1k plus for an incredibly common 2005 key in CGC 9.8 - a book I intuitively feel is worth perhaps 1/10th of that - I think these grail prices make more and more sense.  Lamenters and lamentations aside - this particular key-gravy train has indeed left the station for good IMO ----- hence the crazy prices on raggedy ugly copies.  My 2-cents. :preach:

I agree with almost everything, except the slander for YOUNG AVENGERS #1 :). that book is considered the modern GSX1 for a reason. just you wait for the team to assemble in the MCU.

Agreed who knows if it is real or not.

Seller got feedback for it, but maybe that can be manipulated. I think it was most likely real. 

Side note: A good percentage of .5's are INCOMPLETE. But that doesn't seem to affect prices much on AF15's.
