Are Spidey Prices Heading Back Up?

I certainly appreciated you not buying it. Thanks

Well, maybe the prices aren't as high as thought. The lot I was talking about above, Lot #3040, didn't sell. The last bid was $390 and it didn't move during the live auction.

 

They have it on their post-auction sale for $460, which is $400 + $60 BP. That means that the high bid was only $10 under what they are willing to sell it for. It looks to me like that $390 bid was put in by Heritage to be just under the reserve and no one was willing to top it.

That seems like right in line with the 2002 Guide, approximately anyway.

 

That ASM#3 didn't break the reserve (though it was only $10 under what the Haritage BIN price is/was).

cosmic,

 

i remember last year that this book in this grade was going for over $1K, that's like more than 50% drop off rate (taken from joecollector's bashing of DD movie thread) maybe it's the economy, or dumbarse bush's looming war with iraq, or maybe even this was a non credit card auction.

Oh. I wasn't paying attention to them last year. But that's a pretty significant drop. I will be interested to see how some more ASMs do in the coming weeks.

The prices on Spidey #129 CGC 9.4 are on the up and up. The one that ended tonight sold for over $900

[supapimp]

the one for sale by amazingspider-fan with white pages? that one was a hottie, almost perfect registration and alignment.

[Rickdogg]

Yeah I know, I was waiting to snipe it and then "bye bye" it went once it hit that $800 mark. Oh well

ONE ASM 18 sold in 9.0 for $1k, and it was my book.

 

Statistically this book sells for $500-650 in 9.0 .

Well, lucky for you Matt. Sold at the right time.

I don't think we will be seeing prices hitting last summers marks for some years to come. It was THE double haeder for spidey. CGC was in its infancy and the movie hype was incredible. All added up to 'amazing' prices.

 

Its no real surprise they have cooled right off.
