C-Link  -  just a few weeks ago  -  Jan. 22, 2024  -  sold for $480
 
 
Today on eBay  -  $1,699 opening bid
 

A good pick-up from Comiclink, but way too stiff a flip.

Holy cow. I'm not sure that should have achieved the initial sale price of $1320 compared to the other Jon Bogdanove page on HA with the entire X-Factor team in-action for the hammer price of $100 more.

I've got covers I'm trying to flip for 20% that I can't sell. I should just double my purchase price and at least get some action here when someone links it. doh!

It's gross, but it's why I bid on it. I knew whatever it sold for, the relist value "ask" would be 2-3 times. Not to the likes of us who have trouble justifying the piece just on quality alone. This price is a trap set for the well heeled sucker who missed the auction all together.

Couldn’t find the sale date on comicarttracker but archive.org showed this page still for sale in May ‘23 so less than 6 month flip attempt:

This one popped back up today now on Albert Moy's new drop.  Asking $2,000.  Looks like the flipper is cutting bait and trying to get back some of their initial wager consigning with Albert.

A surprising low result for one of the most memorable pieces from Byrne’s Champions run. Somehow it feels as if it flew under a lot of collectors’ radars!

Thinking about it, the Champions piece prob wouldn’t be considered a flip being that it was held for over a year.

That's a beautiful spread and was well-bought by the winner!  I wish I had been able to be a contender for this.

Where do you think this should have landed at? I wasn't aware of the previous sale but thought it was worth 35k
