I can't tell if they got a steal or prices are trying to reset. A lot of those mid and lower grade prices in that issue are basically the same. Lots of price compression in them. which issue? 213?

It was a #209, probably the softest of the eight books price-wise, and sold in an MCS auction running through the Thanksgiving holidays. I wouldn't head for the hills just yet.

But if prices ever seriously drop across the board, I'd consider upgrades to the tougher ones. They're such great covers to look at, it's hard to imagine getting completely tired of them. piper, ThothAmon, RockMyAmadeus and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Ahh, just seeing the breaking news now on GPA -- prices on Famous Funnies #212 are in ABSOLUTE FREEFALL. If you RACE to the marketplace forum and list your FF #212 at a massive discount before everyone else does, you might, I stress MIGHT, just make a few bucks back. thedude, comicjack, KirbyJack and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
