exitmusicblue Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Folks who get crushed the first day, will you re-double your efforts or walk away? In my case, may go full Braveheart... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my case, may go full Braveheart... Almost all of Day 1 will be OA, which I probably won't bid on. They will still be in the "As" wrt comics. So, it's really Day 2 that will separate the chipmunks from the hamsters. exitmusicblue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm bidding on some art because the Berks look to be a better alternative than Coolline prices... do have a bad feeling there will be some crazy jumps in the last min/5 seconds....

There can be a great many last minutes in a CC auction of a hot book. exitmusicblue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickie Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Not much movement anymore until last minutes and then a hop to 41/42k I guess. Guessing is fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I can't afford it...lol Prices like this definitely confirms that I am from the old school and definitely nowhere near the same league as this generation of big money collectors. Although this is definitely a great cover, but I simply don't see $38.5K or whatever it will sell for "worth of goodness" in this book here. Especially when you have a slabbed 9.0 Larson copy and another unslabbed supposedly NM copy out there somewhere. But to each, there own.
