Who better than Tomato Cat to match the popularity of that stupid spider guy?

We're probably better off trying to match that spider guy with that spider guy.

 

Amazing Spider-man Acme & Dingo Boots Edition

Three slabbed copies after 35 years... only low-grade copies available on Ebay.

 

Based upon the calculations used for ASM #667, a single CGC 9.8 of Amazing Spider-man Acme & Dingo (ASM A&D) should probably be worth $25,000.

I've tried finding a high grade copy of this. As well as the Jawbreaker issue. Tough books.

Definitely. I've also used the calculations of the ASM #667 print run estimates and determined that there are probably fewer than 2 copies in existence.

 

The 3 slabs on the CGC census must be resubmissions of the same book, and the 3 copies available on Ebay are scams and stolen scans.

 

If anyone disagrees with this, they're really disagreeing with the math of the ASM #667 estimates... and I didn't do those. Those are from a guy who really knows what he's talking about. I'm just applying the same math here... plus the fact that the book is 35 years old... plus the much lower census number of 3.

 

It's simple really, not sure why anyone would doubt it. Unless they hate Acme & Dingo.

Hate Acme??? No way, man.

There are several "rare" books that have reached those kind of prices in the copper age. 297 Pressman 9.8, venom black, and several black and white books. If a Jawbreaker, or Dingo boots ever came up in a 9.8, or even 9.6, I could see them selling for that, too.

Yeah, copper is ready to implode. seriously, are there even 50 issues published by the big 2 within the era of "copper" that regularly fetch more than $10-15 raw in really nice shape? i have my doubts.

It's funny because it's the same discussion that Bronze was having in the early years of this board.

That advice is so last month ago.

 

 

[joe_collector]

I hope not, as I still have crates of this stuff to get rid of, not to mention the heart-attack-inducing prices that drek like Ms Marvel, Nova, Star Wars, etc. are getting right now.

For raw, not by anyone with a brain, and those were likely the usual suspects from the GA forums, looking to have some fun. CGC 9.8+ is a different animal, and many "low census" BA books have come down in price, some precipitously so.

 

Since I've been collecting comics in the early-80's, the year 1977 has been a firm delineation between "collectible" and "over-speculated" and over the longer-term, I still hold to that.
