KirbyJack Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I heard about the Groo growth, so yesterday I dug out my Destroyer Duck run to see what kind of shape my #1 was in. Only to learn that I don't have it. There's a dim memory of giving it away a decade or so ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sold one 6 months ago, the second one yesterday, and this is his last copy. Timing is everything baby! -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jick Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) Looks like the same seller has one more copy listed at $3500. Seems fishy. If it was really a $1850 book and not shilled, shouldn't all the 9.6's on eBay with buy it nows of $360 to $370 have all been sold by now already?

jick Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 The same eBay seller who "sold" DD#1 9.8 at $1,850 eventually listed a couple of other copies with BIN. The most recent copy was advertised as his "last one." Right now, that same seller listed a DD#1 9.8 for open auction. Maybe he wants to "test" the market again because the $1,850 sale did not satisfy his questions? Maybe the buyer with only 30+ feedback backed out? Regardless, I am not saying that DD#1 did not spike up due the animation rights being sold. I am just a bit skeptical at the $1,850 result if that is what it really is. We shall find out soon when this next current auction ends. There was also a 9.6 DD#1 that sold in open auction for $316, but the ones in the $370-ish range in buy-it-now are still not seeing much movement. I am always observing the eBay sales because I too am an owner of DD#1 and Groo #1 so I would love to monitor how it is going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jick Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 A new auction of Destroyer Duck #1 CGC 9.8 that just finished minutes ago - from the same seller wth the $1800 result - just fetched $1,025. Now I don't know if that is still a shilled price, but at least it sort of proves that the $1,800 price is not reflective of real market price at the moment - even after the animation rights announcement. And there were only 16 bidders - for full disclosure I was one of them but I tapped out early. I am still not convinced that the results now are reflective of the true market value.

The $1,025 price is probably a fair price for this book right now. I paid about half of that several months ago and the recent news probably doubled the value of the book.
