I believe a vast majority of the books will be 10k or more..... 

Initially I thought a lot would finish (most later issues) between 4-6k, but I think it’s going to be more like 7-10k formost, with others much higher

Planets are great books to collect, especially in runs. We all have our favorite cover sections  ...Rivets...Renee ...Doolin...Whitmans, etc. It is cool to own/see them in order of issue number.

With that in mind, post your 3 favorite Planet books mini run you own that are in numerical order. These may not be your highest graded or one favorite book but a snapshot of the series at the printed time that you like best.

Let’s keep it to 3 and this will give some a hard decision to narrow down as well as letting many play along.

Remember, 3 in numerical order that you own that are your favorite grouping of 3.

 

Here is mine currently: 32 33 34

Resurrecting this old post to get my 2 cents in. It’s not easy to pick a favorite 3 in a row, but I think I would have to go with these:

Alternatively, the hypothetical uber bidder will break everyone's spirit early on and convince everyone else that there is no point even bidding and they will get the later issues relatively cheaply.

The uber bidder is gonna get hurt on the 5-6 I really would like to have.

That in itself won't matter to the 'uber-bidder' because rest assured money is not an issue. But an auction is an auction and you never know what happens, so I say if you really want a book...then bid for it. Personally I do not trust these type of sales...far too much room for 'manipulation'.

Some of the prices in this sale are going to be stratospheric. Interest in Planet books could really go into orbit after this. It could lead to a post sale vacuum or more likely a meteor shower of books offered for sale as people strive to cash in on all things Planet.

PS. No puns were harmed in the writing of this post.

We are  at the Legrange point between speculation and certainty.

the grand total thus far bid on all the Church Planets is... $323,203.  

..about twice what cheetah's high grade set went for.

Just a theory, but I don’t think so.   Too many keeners will continue to watch hoping desperately to pick up at least one book without crushing their bank account.

Do you guys think some of the already high priced books are almost topped out?

It's kind of fascinating to see the Church copy of Planet 26 sitting next to the pedigree-less copy, the latter of which has superior colors.

Not a chance .

I’m still the high bidder on 1 single digit issue, but based on what everyone is saying, I don’t stand a chance! (Which I already figured)

I was the high bidder on one as well but now it's out of my price range...its very discouraging...
