Damn Marvel 1 still climbing!?!  My opinion not a nice copy with all that ugly resto work on the spine 

156K for a not-pretty 2.0 with moderate work.   feeling pretty good about my slight 7.0 kansas city copy.

and did anyone mention the fantastic 3 1.8 going for 41K?   amazing.

This new auctioneer has upped the Hand Game significantly. Brian uses that little "come hither" hand gesture a lot. The other dude points at everyone. But this women uses her hands like she is directing traffic. A+ for style and effort.

Archie's "first appearance" in an ad for Pep #22. In terms of value, I didn't think that was a thing any more than it is for Action #12, but I guess it just takes two bidders to make it so.

Yeah pretty crazy price for it.  It seems like a kid took his/her colored marker and just filled in all the white spots with blue, red, etc .  I feel like there may be some misinformed bidders out there with regards to restoration and what the letters and numbers mean.  I can maybe understand if the restoration was done professionally (A), but a C!?  crazy times

But on instagram whenever a high grade book sells for a big price every subsequent hopeful seller asks substantially more.

How many high grade mega keys do you have priced below gpa?

Depends on what you consider a high grade "Mega Key". Are we going by the CGC Golden Age Chatboard definition, or the Instagram flipper definition?

C for crazy times

 

All hail Marvel Comics 1 craziness

[MrBedrock]

Someone explain this to me -

Golden Age Flash #2 9.2 off-white - 1 9.2 and 1 higher - $32,400

Showcase #13 (4th SA Flash app.) - 9.2 single highest - $38,400

Should there be any distinction between GA and SA any longer? Maybe now they are all just old comics.

In the red corner we have Spawn 1 9.8 error variant and Secret Wars 8 9.9 and in the blue corner, yes, that’s right Two Fisted Tales Annual 1 and Wow Comics 38 in high grade

Holy Diver. I never thought that would be possible, for any silver age book, in my lifetime, period.

3.6Mil for the AF15 9.6

 

What's even crazier is there are actually some disappointed prognosticators out there.

$222k for the 2.0 Bat 1 with tape. 
 

it’s official. Collecting has untethered itself from reality

When this was listed on Comiclink exchange briefly for around $180K I said.

Almost surprised that 2.0 hasn't sold yet. Would like to know what grader notes say.

Does this mean the three other 9.6 AF 15s are each worth 3.6million?

More.  AF 15s follow different rules of economics.  The more 9.6 copies appear, and the more often they come up for sale, the more their price goes up! 

It is known.
