I was completely surprised I managed to snag it, the #115 went for very different money. This is a bit of grail for me, so I was walking around like a plucked chicken all of yesterday, after I had won.

The old label, and the bottom right corner wasn't stained too badly with the usual yellow tinge, I had to have a shot at it. The last two copies (9.6's) of these books I saw for sale was on Worldwide, both going for $10k each, last year IIRC. So I'm happy with the outcome. batmiesta, MatterEaterLad, ThothAmon and 5 others 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a lot of good books on this last connect auction that went for non-hyperbolic prices. It was refreshing to see. But get them while we can I say. batmiesta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won the Hulk 3 9.0 and was the underbidder on the 4, 5 and 6. The 9.0 #6 went for way more than the 9.2 sold on Heritage a few months ago.

The 9.2 was graded in 2015 while the 9.0 was graded in 2005, a year where CGC's grading was very tight and not mentioning that it probably was not pressed either. All my CGC books from that era look way better than their given grades, here is an example. I will take take that 7.0 below anytime before most 9.0 books graded today.

pickycollector Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 That seems like a good deal on that book. I am not a GA guy but always did like that cover. Unfortunately, I did not win that one Superman 14 CGC 7.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post batman_fan Posted September 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2023 I snagged a few books so far, really excited with these two. drmccoy74, ChiSoxFan, BlowUpTheMoon and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ChiSoxFan Posted September 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2023 Snagged two nice ones tonight -- the ASM, I probably overpaid for, but I wanted it, and my bid got pushed up in the last minutes sunstantially, so I guess I either had good fortune to hang on to it (I literally won it at my max), or I was the sucker in the room, lol. The Doctor Strange I had thrown a late bid in expecting it to be topped -- and it wasn't. I didn't get it at a bargain, but I'm comfortable with the price. With what I saw other books I'd been looking at go for this week, that's good enough for me tonight.
