 The tec pages that you speak of haven’t  had any new bids in a while. The typical cooling down point until the storm. The action page is up to 4K but hasn’t met its reserve yet.   I wonder what the reserve is on it ?   I’m guessing  reasonably 5 to 7K

These pages are everywhere now. I bought one myself, so I know they are all from a boardie. 

Theres also some important pages from Tec 27 and Action 1 in the current CC auction.

i think the acceptance into the hobby of single pages has grown. Personally, I love em

That said, MAIL CALL! I just got this back from CGC Wednesday

It ain’t $5k, because I bid that and it didn’t meet reserve

Curious as to what it is. It does have white pages so maybe the consigned is thinking closer to 10k with the 25k page 1 sale and the 16k page 5 sake of recent times.

You don’t get much better than that! Congratulations on that mammoth of a pickup!!

And I agree with you, as much as I hate to see any of the few copies that remain parted out, it has made pieces of history obtainable to collectors who couldn’t otherwise afford them and at the same time, helped to boost the value/desirability of the few complete copies that remain.

Thanks, Wynne-Tec. I’m a bit conflicted about the “parted out” aspect, too.  But I never crack my books out, and although fun, reading the reprints don’t have the same allure for me as holding the original.  That’s where the pages come in.  It’s a glimpse inside of the book that I wouldn’t otherwise get.

I’m in the same boat. I won’t flip through books of a certain dollar value beyond checking for completion/restoration if I’m buying them raw. It’s just not worth the chance of them getting dinged in grade.

Slabbed pages give you the freedom to enjoy the original interior safely.
