Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t that 4.0 that sold for $117K almost immediately after sell for like $140K or so? I can’t find it showing that anywhere, but I swear that happened. Anyway, definitely goin for the big flip, that is for sure!

OMG............Did the buyer of the Heritage copy have an accident and dropped the book into his bathtub while taking his bath and reading it, as the cover colors look completely washed out now?

This seller also was the buyer of that ASM 3 CGC 9.4 pedigree copy that sold on c-link I think last year for about $34K as I recall. He’s asking $60K best offer. It seems this is his schtick, buying at auction then listing for much higher. A true eBay flipper.

Anyone win anything ?

I know of one lucky boardie (not me) that managed to pick up not 1 but 2 preRobins in one night

1 for 15 yesterday and had to overpay a tad for both books I’ve won this far.  Close but no cigar on the PL 16, in retrospect should have bid more. Just about everything I bid on established a GPA high.

Got one. Feel like I paid up but not a GPA high. After paying for my Heritage wins I can tell you I appreciate Cl’s lack of sales tax although $50 to ship one book seems excessive.

That’s a classic book, in my mind @ThothAmon. Thus began 80 years of the Triangle

Just got a nice email from Comiclink that shipping is only $20 not $50. I appreciate the customer service and the fact that they are attentive to the boards. For some reason I am only being offered express shipping at checkout is the reason for the $50 quote.

I had to pay sales tax on my last CL purchase.

Yes. But somehow I expected more on the Cap 3

Compared to prices in 2018 and 2019,  2020 sales seem softer especially consider strong sales for other GA keys.

Here’s some I can point to as solid sales, compared to other recent sales.

My comment is specifically only in reference to the Cap 3.  I agree that GA sales have been very strong in general for several months.

I could be wrong, but I seem to recall the last 6.0 copy of Beyond sold for around $3k a while back. Either way, that’s a very cool cover. It reminds me of Baker for some reason.

[LDarkseid1]

So with this sale, which already feels super strong, how long until someone jumps on the eBay copy sitting at $88K?
