VintageComics Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 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 9.4 copy would sell for now. Maybe $125k (if it wasn't an igb re-re-creation)? -J. 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. A restored book generally 'should' sell for roughly what it would have been worth pre resto, give or take for a little bidding frenzy, adding a little for eye appeal, possibly a little to compensate for the work done, etc. That's why all restored books are not the same.

Gotham Kid Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Belongs to Roy. Was offered here on the boards before moving to ebay. Sure knightsofold saw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Belongs to Roy. Was offered here on the boardas before moving to ebay. Sure knightsofold saw it. Is he actively looking for an interior or happy to just have the cover (which is in great condition!)? If he's looking to eventually put together a complete copy, this certainly would get him well down the path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a previous post from knightsofold about the interior, I guess then he wasn't really looking. Dunno about now, but just wanted to give him the heads up. I think the seller is also a boardie maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Boy Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Will Cap 1 be the top Marvel book after Friday? Yes? No? It is already? It should have been post 1970 anyway ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinzebac Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 (edited) Will Cap 1 be the top Marvel book after Friday? Yes? No? It is already? It should have been post 1970 anyway ? I thought that Cap 1 had already overtaken Marvel Comics 1 as the top Marvel book. Edited May 4, 2016 by kinzebac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's looking to eventually put together a complete copy, this certainly would get him well down the path. We've talked about it (and to me personally, it's a 'no-brainer') but I think part of the problem is that people don't feel comfotable assigning value to pieces, which is fair. Not everyone understands the market. My interior was previously sold but the original buyer traded it into another, better book (there was no buyer regret), so I've since relisted it and raised the price on it. I've already had offers for more than it sold a month ago I really think that someone will cherish it. Just needs to go to the right person.

Knightsofold Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I'd love to pair the interior with my cover, but my focus and cash had to go to different book. If only I had the $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSurgeon Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I feel very lucky to have purchased this a couple of years ago- by far my most expensive purchase. A boardie owned it before me and I think made a huge profit on the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that Cap 1 had already overtaken Marvel Comics 1 as the top Marvel book. some time ago, imo Kind of remarkable when you consider there are 158 copies of Cap 1 on the census (all shades of slab) v. 58 Marvel 1. I always thought of Cap 1 and Batman 1 as the easiest of the GA keys with Action 1, Tec 27, and Marvel 1 being the mega keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
