Love those early Turok covers! (The stories not so much.)

I had to Work overtime and missed the book I bid on because I wasn't there to bid did anyone win the cap 76?

 

Not me. Went for $653. Well over guide and the last sale shown in GPA from a couple of years ago, but not a bad price for a book you don't see that often.

 

Whenever I miss a book by not being around to bid, I always tell myself "The other guy's bid was probably way more than I was willing to pay, so if I had bid, I would only have driven up the price he paid and still have lost." It's BS, of course, but it makes me feel better.

One win tonight for me, I'll reveal after my other target closes....

I was bidding on the Cap 76 as well. I walked away after a certain point. Something else I want more.

This will be my first time ever using c link. I'm watching the cap 76 they have. It will be my first GA cap pickup as well if I win.

 

That went for a lot but I'm not surprised at all...

 

About 3 years ago I tried to get a copy of that book and was surprised then at what it sold for!

[Hibou]

Here's a question though... the one book I was after I got, but as I watched the timer count down to zero and close, the book stayed at one price but when I got the email stating that I won the book, it was now $18 more. :shrug:

 

Does that mean that there was a last second bid that didn't register in time?

I thought it would have went for closer to $800, those Atlas Cap books are going to break out one day because they're a cool anomaly within the original run.

Picked up these I'm done

[comicjack]

That's really nice for the grade!

I agree... to tell the truth that is why I grabbed that Submariner issue at the last minute. I honestly don't see them available with any real frequency. I see more of the 40's Timely's than the 50's Atlas books.

 

I just checked GPA on that Submariner book and the last time any copy of that book sold was 2011 with only 7 copies sold at all since 2006 if I am reading GPA correctly.

was the $18 equal to 3%? I know they have a "Buyers premium" vig added (which I think they'll rescind if you pay by check/mo)

Or someone raised the bid by $18 at the VERY last second and it was not enough to overtake your winning bid.

Nice pick-up on the Turok # 2, Buzzetta!

 

I picked up the # 3

 

Mine are going in the wrong direction, though. # 1 - 7.0; # 2 - 6.5; # 3 - 6.0.

That's a nice one

No, I watched it close at $93 but got the email saying it was $111 and that's what shows up in my winning bid list.

 

Oh well... just a glitch I guess.

[Sqeggs]

That's really nice for the grade!

 

+1

That must be it...

 

And I REALLY like that Sub Mariner 41 that you picked up!
