SECollector Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I voted FF1 since it is the one with the "higher value". Its easy to tell by looking at GPA. I hope it earns back the appreciation it deserves in this movie hyped era. However, Spidey has probably the most growth potential and I believe that it will see a huge price bump in the next few years proportionally comparable to the one of AF15. It has already increased dramatically compared to 2016. JIM83 is as cool as a book can get - cover, story, character, historical significance.

I remember now, you're the guy who can't be wrong, even when there's proof of it. And since you don't speak for me when you use the collective 'we', you're bound to be wrong at least a fair amount of the time.

comicdonna Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Isn't ASM the 3rd app of Spider-man? I would go with FF #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will point out when a dealer's reported individual experiences are inconsistent with broader market trends. I am capable of doing my own research and reaching my own conclusions now, thanks to the internet, and most people, including ethical dealers, would recommend the same. The hobby isn't still in 1985 when Overstreet and local vendors were the only source for information. Thank heavens for that. -J.

Jaydogrules Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) Enough with nostalgia and emotion, that's boring and irrelevant. Let's try looking at actual recent, comparable data points: 0.5- ASM1 - $1800 4/17, FF1 - $1107 5/17 - ASM1 advantage 1.0- FF1 - $2200 5/17, ASM 1 - $1912 6/17 - FF1 advantage 1.0 (Sig Series)- ASM1 - $2895 7/17, FF1 - $1461 3/17 - ASM1 advantage 1.5- FF1 - $2500 6/17, ASM1 - $2145 5/17 - FF1 advantage 1.8- ASM1 - $3250 5/17, FF1 - $2650 4/17 - ASM1 advantage 1.8 (Sig series)- ASM1 - $3150 7/17, FF1 - $2050 3/17 - ASM1 advantage 2.0- FF1 - $4780 9/17, ASM1 - $3700 8/17 - FF1 advantage 2.5- ASM1 - $4000 7/17, FF1 - $3824 5/17 - ASM1 advantage 3.0- ASM1 - $4300 8/17, FF1 - $4000 7/17 - ASM1 advantage 3.5- ASM1 - $5300 7/17, FF1 - $4800 8/17 - ASM1 advantage 4.0- ASM1 - $5500 8/17, FF1 - $4852 4/17 - ASM1 advantage 4.5- ASM 1 - $6000 7/17 (12 month average $6058), FF1 - $6000 7/17 (12 month average $5500) - ASM1 advantage 6.0- FF1 - $19,120 8/11, ASM1 - $13,145 5/17 - FF1 advantage 6.5- FF1 - $15,535 6/17, ASM1 $11,450 6/17 - FF1 advantage 7.5- FF1 - $23,500 3/17, ASM1 - $18,600 8/17 - FF1 advantage 8.0- FF1 - $35,000 3/17, ASM1 - $30,000 7/17 - FF1 advantage Tally: ASM1 advantage in 9 grades; FF1 advantage in 8 grades Take aways: ASM 1 has already overtaken FF1 in almost every low and mid grade. FF1 still currently holds the advantage in higher grades (6.0+), however ASM 1 is rapidly gaining ground on it there as well. I would expect in less than 5 years ASM 1 will be selling for more than FF1 in virtually every grade, emotion and nostalgia notwithstanding. -J.
