If someone was the seller, PM me and I can let you know where to send the thank you note. If you are the buyer, I live out of the country. I guess I am glad I bought one at HA but for a 4.5, the cover presents more like an 8.0

Not sure what your max bid was on the book, but I was the underbidder and felt it was worth at least $8277 to me. Big congrats, it is a real nice looking copy

Well, we were out and I couldn't up my bids on a few, but my bids held on the ones I really wanted:)

 

I've been looking for a nice 53 for a while, and I'm thrilled to win a Wonder Woman (Sensation) Okajima:)

 

(I told my husband I bought my own birthday present in advance;)

 

 

[gino2paulus2]

Everything left all past my max bids. I seem to do better in the the earlier part of multi-day auctions, as it seems like people start going higher on later books after being outbid on earlier ones.

 

Prices do seem really strong tonight...

 

$15,000 for a Pep 34 6.0? Someone REALLY must want that book....WOW!

 

IMHO That book is 'entering' Suspense 3, Fantastic 5, Punch 12, Tec 31 territory. It's showing no signs of slowing up.

 

I think you are right. And with only three copies graded higher, I think that's a reasonable price for someone (and there were at least two!) who wanted a nice looking copy.

And all three houses have sold a copy this year (if i'm right) and all with strong results. I think Gino was the most recent 'known' Boardie to snag a copy. Bet you're feeling real good about that buddy

 

I sure am brother and thanks again to Adam for helping me work that one into the collection!! Did snag this little rarity tonight that you and I had talked about Corey and I'm pretty stoked. Been chasing a copy but they don't come up too often. Gonna have to crack this one out and enjoy it as I've never held one of these little buggers!!

Thanks everyone! I was clearly in good company with batman_fan up till the end.

 

I'd been tracking the 5.0 version of this book at the recent Heritage Auction, but when I saw this 4.5 at ComicLink, I was smitten by the quality of the cover, and dug in.

Well done Sha!!!!!!!! very nice!!!

[skypinkblu]

Thanks, Gino:) I'm very happy and I even had leftover money from my bids, .

 

I explained how much I saved him !

 

(not that I ever take the money anyway, I take pride in funding my own collection, but it's kind of a standing joke here;)

[skypinkblu]

Thanks, Chris and Jack:)

 

I was kind of hoping not too many people had noticed it was an Okajima.

 

I had been planning on bidding higher on the Sensation that was a triple cover, I think 31? but the rusty staples were bothering me and I stopped bidding higher on the 13 because of all the dirt. I hope I'm not becoming grade conscious, the rest of my books will be upset with me;)
