Although I still can't figure out how Rick got that 7.5 for $3720 I think I know why. The sale just prior was for an 8.0 on HA. It wasn’t accurately graded as it was rough in some areas and had owner writing on it. It wasn’t a pretty 8.0 and it tipped the GPA. I think that helped the genuinely lucky @Ricksneatstuff snag that deal. Edited January 27, 2019 by Junkdrawer Ricksneatstuff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I would have seen it I would have been bidding. Junkdrawer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, yes, that seller had quite a few Archies that don't surface much. I also got this, which has what I'm pretty sure is an Australian only cover. A couple of Australian Reggies went cheap on CLink last Friday. I nabbed the 19 (other guys' 5.0 OW-W) for a tracking bid of only $16. I imagine the consignor regrets bothering to get it graded.

Given what else you’ve written it could mean high grade Archie 50’s are undervalued and still have room to grow! In a roundabout way, that’s where I was going. Archie 50 in comparison...in high grade (8.0 or better) with its demand, should be on equal terms price wise. Not half. This book is soooo undervalued.

Popular Post Ricksneatstuff Posted January 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2019 I had the Mile High Junie Prom and sold it to a great boardie here and have been reminding him I want it back ever since. Ive sold several very nice raw Ginger 1s and 4s here that everyone should be very happy about now too Between all the above books that have been discussed and Archie 50 my personal pick would be Ginger 4 because I like redheads the best (even though I do believe Archie 50 will always have the most interest) but a really undervalued great cheesecake Cover is this one. gadzukes, Junkdrawer, Point Five and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s another factor no doubt that killed GPA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucy is an underappreciated series. The 1 is pretty easy to find (although not in high grade), but the others are pretty tough in any condition. This is the highest grade copy. The other copy on the census is a 3.5. Ricksneatstuff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
