Issues like this were no big deal. I ended up with most of the Baker ones but never saw this one for sale any where. archiefan and Changer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wanted the COL 2, but just couldn't push it more than I did (and I pushed it pretty good). sagii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Love Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Those digests were quite something. $4K each for the Honeymoons. I'm actually even more surprised at the My Love Life #7 6.5 for $802, flabbergasted at the First Romance #1 9.8 going for $2,050, and the Movie Love #8 9.0 going for $1,261 - that's beyond shocking. I know compared to what's going on out there these numbers are chump change - but in my world...it's real money. sagii and comicjack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CGC 9.8 1st edition with white pages, bright white cover and a File Copy from 1949. The next highest graded is an 8.5 File Copy. No pun intended but is is always nice to see Romance titles getting a little love... Dr. Love 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, that's the first time in over 20 years that I've seen a COL 2 for sale and the second time I've seen a HR 2. So I wasn't surprised they went crazy. Only disappointed that I didn't get one of them. But I've learned that I've never got a shortage of great books to buy, so overpaying by leaps and bounds just doesn't make sense.
