MyNameIsLegion Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 On 3/7/2024 at 7:32 AM, Captain ShipWreck said: Where do you think this should have landed at? I wasn't aware of the previous sale but thought it was worth 35k I think it landed right where it should, given that the fees are less, which massively distorts HA's number relative to actually consignor net proceeds, the previous $46K result was just silly, but that's no consolation to the consignor. They f'ed up royally. they would have done better trading out of the art at the 46K valuation to something more fungible, or several things to protect their investment. Now the valuation is 50% and nobody will touch it or it becomes that JLA 47 cover that every dealer in North America has had on their wall for the last 25 years.

I traded it during a CAF Live, and then the guy on the end of it worked his own deal with it, and then don't know, but it ended up in the first listing you shared. So it's got a sad moving story. Hopefully it finds it's forever home soon as it's a nice enough page! grapeape, John E., Twanj and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
