THE AMAZING FANTASY #15 CLUB 39 39

[NoMan]

Anybody know when the HA 8.5 auction starts/ends? I forgot my HA password and logged in mistakenly too many times and now I’m locked out. Says I have to call them and my social anxiety won’t allow it.

You really wanna get an AF 15 in 9.4 or better, everything else is far too common to bother with

I've just been waiting for a 9.8 to surface.

Will CGC grade this? If yes I'll be back in the club very soon!

This club is open to anyone who respects the bullet-proof investment that is AF15.

This club is open to anyone who acknowledges that Spiderman will never die (because of the movies and the Chinese).

This club is open to anyone who talks non-stop about the upward value of AF15 (because of the bullet-proof investment that is AF15, the movies, and the Chinese).

I would never be part of a club that would have me as a member.

Exactly.

There is bound to be another upswing, but there does seem to be a few red arrows out there.

Timing for those investors

Doom and gloom for AF 15.  I project it will head down to its cover price of 12c in a few short years.

3.0 OW no chipping sold on heritage for $28.8 which is a little north of what the last two 3.5s sold for with chipping.    On the bear side of the market, a 5.0 cr/ow just sold on Clink for $47.1k which is down $10k from the last sale in Sept.

I wouldn't look back at the what if I sold it (and I know you aren't really) It's very difficult to time a market (comics/stocks/house etc). I think trying to time it is a dangerous game. I have watched guys sell a book to upgrade and the market double before the upgrade is secured and now they have to pay 5.0 money to rebuy their 3.0 book type deal.

Yes, when it comes to vintage comic book collecting, I find that it's a lot better to spend time in the market, as opposed to trying to time the market.

Yeah it's teetering right now. Teeter. Funny word.

Basically sell nothing until you're on your deathbed, then give it a few more days.

In that scenario, an 8.5 AF15 might extend the $707K in Sept 2021 and the $875K in July 2022 to a cool $1 million in October 2022?  Seen in that light, a mere 14% hike wouldn't seem like a huge leap.  Ok, ok, AF15 just holding at the July figure would be the scenario (for AF15 owners) in light of everything.  

If an 8.5 AF15 cools to $500K, it could mean that AF15 is still correcting and/or succumbing to broader market woes, but even then, not more than other asset classes nowadays. 

Wowza, half a million bucks, let alone a full million for a 8.5 graded copy of AF 15.  

I still remember it wasn't that long ago when boardies here were laughing at the know nothing fool of a buyer who had picked up a verified signed Stan "The Man" Lee 8.5 graded copy for under 6-figures at something like a 30% or $35K discount to condition guide saying that they were not only going to lose their pants, but also their top and underwear at the same time for buying this surely overgraded POS copy since it was certified by the boys across the street.

I probably won't even sell then.  From a tax stand point, it's better to leave it to the kiddos and let them sell it. 

  

Although, that's hopefully 50 or so years away.

This is 100% correct.

I have no children because I want my comic collection to follow me into the next realm, down the River Styx.
