$19,200 for the Tec #38 with missing centrefold and wrong back cover wasn't too shabby either.

it will be interesting, watching how future Marvel movies manage the transfer of actors playing the roles.  WE all agree that long term, Marvel/Disney have added tremendous value to these comics, while fostering a feeling that they will ensure that the characters stay relevant "forever".  But I wonder hw rocky new actors cast for these characters affect near term values.  Maybe there's nothing to worry about!  But no new Cap or Iron Man films are slated as yet.  Could take 4-6 years.  Will that have a cooling effect?  Even for millionaires who are just now comfortable buying 7 figure first appearances like this?

Having said this, when the 9.8 sells if we are still in this period of unchecked growth, 10M easy for the 9.8.   Assuming... that the Batman,  Supes and Spidey keys have already reached that level AND Cap doesn't lose importance without movies...  but we know the owners won't be selling any time soon.  Why should they?  so its all just talk.

Maybe, but if you're right about Cap 1 being a $10 million book, then any copy of Tec #27 or Action 1 should be a $10 million book in any grade over VF. I can't see Cap #1 ever being on the same level as those books. It's more common and less important.

ETA: "If we are still in this period of unchecked growth, 10M easy for the 9.8." That's the question of the hour, right?

It was just a matter of time.....the secret is out......I expected at a minimum 2.5m but 3.1 puts this book in a different level, wonder if there are any owners of Cap 1 still pricing it at the "old" price after this or not knowing about this significant price breaking sale....watch the main stream pick this up and watch 2-10  prices feel the effects of this great sale.

Ah yes.  The secret is out!  Nobody knew about Cap 1 before.

Good post. The words "lose importance" did trigger me I must say. WE all don't agree Aman. I think you're giving Disney, Marvel, Hollywood way to much credit. I could be wrong about that but I'm one of those who couldn't care less about who and when has a movie coming out (most of whic that I've seen I think are mediocre to terrible).  I suppose the upcoming movie schedules do have an effect but I'm pretty sure these wonderful books , especially Golden Age, would be in about the same degree of desirability with or without the Hollywood money makers (movies). No offense, like you said just talk.

There couldn't have been more than 100,000 posts about Cap 1 before Mitch graced these Boards with his presence.

So did the 2nd highest graded Marvel Copy (Pay Copy) sell for 1 million less than the second highest graded Cap 1 copy ?

Imagine what it would've sold for on Heritage instead of CC!
