G.A.tor Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 The highest price ever paid for a restored copy was $64k for the 9.0 SP Church copy in Feb 2004. The highest graded restored copy sold was a MP 9.4 that sold for $26k in Nov 2010. I have no idea what an EP copy would sell for now. Maybe $125k (if it wasn't an igb re-re-creation)? -J.

ALL IGB productions have "Extensive Color Touch and Pieces added to cover" ComicLink copy only states Color Touch and Pieces added. Details you see.

sacentaur Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I'm wondering if every high grade GA or SA restored book in a CBCS slab might be getting some of the same stigma at this point by default. If it's a 9.6/9.8 Extensive in a Voldemort holder and looks fake, then yes. If not, then maybe a professionally restored book will have less stigma (to collectors who accept restoration) knowing that it's not an IGB recreation.

TheSurgeon Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Once a book has an EP rating, could it be restored to a 9.6 without any further harm? I guess I don't really understand the difference in buying an EP 6.0 or EP 9.6. Since the book already has the most restored label, why not restore it all the way to 9.6 if that would sell for more. Can any book be extensively restored to 9.6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You believe an EP restored Cap 1 could get 125K? I don't have the time to go back through the threads, but aren't you the guy who said the recently found poor condition Action 1 wasn't worth 50K? Even if that book was given the most expensive resto ever performed that would mean you value a restored Cap 1 about 70K more than an equivalent Action 1.

Yeah but Jay is biased .....Totally biased, and I clearly stated I had no idea and then just pulled a number out of my . (but I still wouldn't pay even $50k for that action 1. I don't think I would pay anything for that copy, all due respect to those who would and more, just to own any copy of an action 1.) -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
