Comic Link has some pretty awesome books this round, both GA and SA.

Agree 100%, looks like decent supply of some books that have been getting out of hand, maybe this puts some in check, but a few will go for ATH as well.

I don't understand why people make proclamations of fact with complete confidence when it is just conjecture. The sale of the Tomb of Dracula #10 9.9 in the 2019 auction did indeed complete for $85,000 in the Summer 2019 Featured Auction. The purchaser in that auction is reselling it in the upcoming one.

I’m curious, is it a $60 flat rate for shipping?

Probably won’t be cheap. Sad the 17 has tan pages as it’s on my want list. 

Yep. It makes sense they would go high being that they are so few. I understand people bidding very high, even like insane people, on books they might not see come around again for months or years or maybe never. Its the bidding like lunatics on books that are so plentiful that new ones come around almost on a daily basis. I'm just bitter because I've been getting blown out of the water on everything I've bid on lately. I need a hug.

Yeah.. Cards are going crazy right now. I am sitting on the sidelines of the card hobby for a while...I think now is a good time to sell cards- not good time to buy.

I'm still trying to figure out who these people bidding like mad on everything are. I know I'm a broken record about it but I'm truly baffled. And its not even heavy last minute action in most auctions, its mostly right out of the gate bidding frenzies. I just don't get it.

Yes. I agree. The card people don't know what a snipe bid is... It's crazy exuberance. 1980s, 1990s, 2000s  PSA 10s are not that rare. "Chrome refractor"... I don't really know what that means.

It is almost like they are trying to do early bullying bids to clear a room, except that works better in live in person auctions, not remote ones. I am sorta glad CL does not use extended bidding right now, no clue how high some stuff would go in this auction. Pretty sure I will be buying some off the radar books if anything this round.
