I smell a capital gains tax odor...:flipbait:

Well, with a total of 315 books in this particular auction alone, including some biggies like this AF 15 here, Bat 1, Suspense 3, etc., I certainly hope that old Mikey is residing in some exotic tax free haven like the Cayman's, Switzerland, Monaco, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, Belize, or the likes where there is no capital gains taxes at all.  :banana:  :whee:

I live in Canada, so I will sadly be paying all my tax on these sales.  :tonofbricks:

Don't know things change so much over the months. It is not the nicest 8.0 I have seen but still a 8.0 never the less.

looks pretty sharp, and I believe it is an original owner from a collection TonyEtrade discovered in Lake Shasta, some very nice books he found.

$60k for a 3.0 :whatthe:

Back in the day it was 3K for a 6.0 !

One of my earliest 'big' sales on here was selling an AF #15 6.0 (or was it a 6.5) on here for about $11K around 2008 or so, I think.

Stunner or hardly shocking?

Purple label cover ONLY sold for $8500.00 on eBay with 67 bids.

2C900CB0-E64C-4A51-B44E-C4C405422D4B.png

This is bonkers, just looking at a quick glance on the ebay sold I can see the following pages (Prices in Canadian)

Cover: $11,000 
Page 1: $4,500
Page 2: $2,700
Page 3: $5,000
Page 4: $2,800
Page 5: $2,900
Page 6: $4,200
Page 7: $650
Page 14: $440
Page 15: $550
Centerfold: $2,200

Cutting up a 0.5 book, even a restored one (my friend has a signature series 0.5 restored copy that looks better than this cover and he is having trouble evaluating its FMV still), would already sell for around $37,000 Canadian (around $28k USD) just for around 14 of the interior pages and cover (plus whatever else the other pages can bring in, at least another grand or so)

aren't there like 3000 AF 15s on the census?  I agree those are the prices these pages are currently fetching, but I don't think these prices are sustainable.  But in a day and age where my 3 year old nephew insists on his Spiderman jammies before he will go to bed, who knows?

If you cut up an AF 15 to sell pages individually purely to maximize profit, you’re a scumbag. 

too late. there are probably dudes pulling out the 'ole schick razor blades...
