I would be totally shocked if it hits more than $300K, let alone the $500K mark that's being mentioned here.  

Now if it had come in as a CGC 9.8 graded copy, then that might have been a different story in terms of its chances to crack $500K or even $300K. 

Not sure why, but I've always thought of 'Tec 140 as almost being more of a SA book than a true GA book since it's well more than 100 issues past the first appearance of Batman.  Will definitely be nice to watch and see where it finishes up at in the end though.  

As for both of the Grundy books, still way too early to tell, but I definitely see no problem with AA 61 easily getting into 6-figures, especially considering its all-time classic cover along with the fact that no other HG copies have ever been offered in a public auction to date so far.  

I can’t believe my initially assessment was almost right. Tec 140 almost hit $500K.

Watched the 3 super high grade Archie’s with amazement.  By far the nicest known examples the #10, 14, and 15 sold for a grand total of $43k. I’ll be satisfied with my lesser copies for now.  The Promise books are such freaks of nature my guess is they will have little impact on GA pricing overall.

... true, but I predict a 2 year resurgence in the GA market ... a lot of appetites will be "wetted". GOD BLESS....

Does anyone know what other big/mega books are still in the collection yet to be graded? Ones that will sell in the many hundreds of thousands or break a mil?

450k+ for that is bonkers

So many crazy numbers. Hard to wrap one's head around it. 

The biggest problem is how this is going to shift perceptions on everything.

Dollars aren't worth much anymore is the problem moving forward.

I almost jumped in on the 28 ... but I know it would have been a foolish tail-chasing exercise ... but it IS  one my top 5 Subby's. and settled cheaply. GOD BLESS...

[Point Five]

I won one. Jesus. I'm a bit in shock.
Had to mannup... there won't be a second chance.

Spoiler

$264 plus ship. Wait, are you guys talking about a *different* Heritage auction?

That was a gorgeous 7.0 that I thought about bidding on...and then realized it was 2021 and decided against it.

Did anybody manage to see why it only graded a 7.0? Maybe some wear / creasing that isn't showing up in the scans or is it a bunch of color lifting across the book (the colors seem spotty on that book)

[VintageComics]

I also thought the Pep #22 3.0 Voldy went cheap.

That sounds like peanuts for one of the rarest and most important GA keys ever published.

It has creasing and edge tears on the right side if you zoom in. I have a 5.0 that's in about the same shape. It's hard to see with the yellow background.
