I just had it graded. 1st cover 8.5, 2nd cover 9.2 3rd cover 9.4 4th cover 9.4 interior cover 9.4. Was hoping for higher, but good enough. I plan on putting it on Ebay soon. Have not received it yet. Should get it soon. Any suggestions on how much I should start the bids at? I put up my CGC 9.4 double cover of Avengers 294 at $100 and it hasn't sold yet. Had I believe an offer of 50 and 70 or 80? Maybe more covers makes it more desirable and therefore worth more? I guess the question is, how badly do you need the money? If you don't need to sell it soon, then start it off at a high minimum bid. It may not sell for the first few auctions, but I imagine that eventually you'll attract some watchers. If that happens, maybe lower the minimum and you'll get some action? Or change it to a BIN and allow offers? With something like this that has a niche collecting pool, I wouldn't start it at $.99, because if enough multi-cover collectors don't see it, it may go really cheap.

Rayhock Posted August 7, 2018 Author Share Posted August 7, 2018 I have it listed for 99.99. just received an offer for 75. Still a week left so not sure if I want to take it or if I want to sell for that low. https://outside-affiliatelinksnotallowed.ebay.com/outside-affiliatelinksnotallowed/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F253795599925 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would let it run though, and re-list it at a higher price. There are just not many books like this - most BA/CA multis seem to max out at triple covers. Personally I would have sacrificed one more cover before having it graded. Oh, and btw get rid of the stock photo by unchecking the auto-info that eBay provides. cheers, D Edited August 8, 2018 by divad ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The book has five covers from the bin that is extremely rare to be found. Are you going to send it to CGC? We'd love to see the result. Hopefully it will be 9.8 or 9.9 on the fifth cover.

GeeksAreMyPeeps Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 While looking up some comics on eBay, I noticed this auction. I've never seen a double cover like this before.

OtherEric Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Here’s an oddity I’ve had for a long time, never sure what to do with it. Only a double cover, but the outside is newsstand and the inside is direct: ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen one with a newsstand / direct combination before, which seems illogical, but then again I'd never seen a Canadian MJI until the other day.
