That grade was at 7K last time I took a look, I didn't expect a near 30% increase in a couple of months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still didn't answer my question though, it that a new record for FF 5 in that grade? Or did it go up and drop like that X-Men 1 book?

Oh man sorry I have multiple conversations happening across these boards so I get my wires crossed sometimes. Yes, I meant FF 5. Has it also had a big gain followed by a dip or are the prices we are seeing new records? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen any dips in FF5 and I’ve followed pretty much every copy sold at the major auction houses in the last year… just up up and away… Edited July 13, 2021 by dikran1 KCOComics and William-James88 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was me JIM 85 I’d sell if I wanted to take profits, FF5 I’d hold until we see a teaser or trailer with Doom in it. And I don’t really think it’s a huge gamble to wait on Doom, Marvel/Disney aren’t going to sit on Doom and never use him, just a matter of when not if. Even if there’s a dip in prices leading up to that point I think when that happens it will climb enough to make it worth the wait. But that’s just me… silverseeker, zosocane and Austin_t_a 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Human nature is funny... Spoiler It is funny it's like as soon as they show up in screen the time to panic buy and raise prices is NOW! It's also that the whole variants thing in Loki means all his appearances could be different characters so each one could see an up tick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimebuster Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 9 hours ago, HighVoltage said: Yes and yes Spoiler Yes, but while we knew he was playing Kang, which suggests some of his other versions might appear, the version in episode 6 is 100% straight up Immortus, not Kang. So that's new. Not sure movie fans or the speculator base will care unless they say the name, wh8ch they didn't, but for anyone who has read the comics, it's very clearly Immortus. The story is also based to a notable degree on Avengers #267-269 for those who care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this is a significant drop since the movies though. I was mainly debating if I should pick up an Avengers 8 copy now before it skyrockets even more or try to pick it up after the movie in a few years... but worried it may continue to go up. It's such a neat cover too for his first appearance. One of my comic buddies online picked up a 7.0 W pages for 1,000 around the time I wrote this post a few months ago. 7.0 just sold for $ 4,000 today. Incredible return. He is going to list it soon.

No easy task, but he found a way to keep things fresh. Unca Ben, zosocane, jason4 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely to hold it now and wait to see when the character pops up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
