Confused by an auction

[Fletch]

Hello All

 

I know that hulk 181 is arguably the most desired book of the bronze age, but this auction has me totally confused. Should a 5.0 ss really be going for this much with two bidders no less.

 

Is there something special about this particular book?

Considering there is a Stan Lee 6.5 listed at $1,600 or best offer, no. But maybe I'm missing something .

I wouldn't exactly say Hulk 181 is the most desired bronze book.

Yep that would be Captain America's Bicentennial Battles.

Weren't there a couple of posts recently about how 'white' pages and 'centered wrap' were... or were not that highly valued by collector's? These two auctions could provide some enlightenment

Uh oh..... someone accidentally set both their shill accounts on the same auction.

The answer is always money laundering.

Looks like the first bidder has 100% activity in the past thirty days with this seller :shrug:
