I had been trying to find a copy with an acceptable wrap I could live with for years now. It was $1400 more than the August clink 9.8, which I didn’t bid on, but far less than the $21k May example (which I was the underbidder). The May copy was superior to this one, but for $11k less You're my hero now. I'll just have to settle for my 9.4 copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A copy of DD #1 CGC 8.5 sold for $17,939 tonight although the last GPA sale for a 8.5 was $26,400 Many other books sold for less than GPA as well. Been cooling down since the may peak. Not enough for me but every post on the cl auction has had lots of red. December January February are normally down months. I don't expect a uptick until March April.

Popular Post PKJ Posted November 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2021 I will take random comics you don’t need for 100. I did pick up some books I did need for my TTA and TOD runs but these were not on my radar (except Mask 1 and Droids 1). I don’t drink so I can’t use the “drunk bidding” story. And what makes someone want to send in the American Cancer society giveaway in that condition? I have been looking at adding the 80’s giveaway comics so I guess that one fits a need. If CL ever added the “ these books need a press” category all of them would fit. alexgross.com, Microchip, Sweet Lou 14 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MattTheDuck Posted November 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2021 Had kind of a weird win on CL last night. Had a max bid in on this one, but lost track of the time and came back almost at the end to see I'd been outbid. Still a pretty good price, so I put in a slightly higher max bid, but when I clicked "confirm," I got an "auction has ended" error message. But a couple hours later I received a "winning bidder" email from Comiclink! Perhaps a glitch so we'll see if it holds. lizards2, Microchip, batmiesta and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently they held that one back for auction, and I had forgotten all about it until I got the email last night. It will make for a nice, unexpected check right around Christmas time. I hope you enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post F For Fake Posted November 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 16, 2021 Got blown out on several things, but got some saucy consolation prizes. I really wanted the Legionnaires book, which is one of my favorites in the run (I have a copy signed by AH and Karl Story 20+ years ago) which has the double distinction of being a Hughes 9.8 AND a DC Logo variant. I also have been looking for this naughty Red Sonja cover for a while in 9.8, so I went after it as well. The Gen 13 is a cheap one for my registry set, the JLA a cheap 2nd print, and the Fog City a decent copy of a book I've liked for a long time (tastefully censored here with my superior graphic design skills!) So, I was mercifully outbid on the bigger books, which is just fine by me right now. Holidays, black friday, some random long time wants popping up on eBay and MCS, etc it's an expensive month.
