Only if you're running out of space in the safety deposit box and you still have some older drek that should to be protected instead. Everyone knows that older drek is always a better investment than newer drek. Edited September 29, 2020 by valiantman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broke as a Joke Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 This is still the single most slabbed comic book in existence correct? If 9.6 copies are pulling in 2 grand now then this has to be the most valuable comic on the planet when you factor in copies available versus price. How long can this madness last...

I don't see 9.6's @ $2K presently for Blue Universal label copies. The average for Sept is perhaps a whisker over $1.2K, with a few outliers ($1.7K and $1.9K, respectively). However, given the current runup on 9.8's, I think its still a good time to grab a 9.6 at today's prices. $1.2K should seem like a good deal a few months from now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetaHuman Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 What a crazy run-up for this book. The sequel, Venom: Let there Be Carnage, was originally supposed to be released this Friday. Sony has pushed it all the way back to June 25, 2021. Damn covid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha, yep, they sure did. When you combine the phrase "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is" with the phrase "know your market", it doesn't make any sense as a seller to try to offer something at a significant discount. Sometimes a price increase is a win-win for both the buyer and the seller, since the buyer isn't as suspicious and the seller brings home more money. Strange, but true.

I guess I can see the sense in that, but I'd be more behind it if it was a CGC 9.8 and it seemed like the seller was reacting to the rapidly changing market on this book. I think people will see grabbing this specific book as a bit of a risk though, since CGC is the current "gold standard" when it comes to buying and selling graded comic collectibles. If someone wanted to change the book out to a CGC-graded book to potentially protect their investment, that's a fair amount of risk to take if the book were to come back a 9.6 or even a 9.4.

True, but if you saw a book at $5,000 from CGC and the same book at $4,250 from the other guy, you'd ask yourself if that's a fair discount because it seems legit. If you see the other guy's book at $3,250, you have to ask "what's wrong with it?" Jesse-Lee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjonahjameson11 Posted September 30, 2020 Author Share Posted September 30, 2020 The CGC 9.8 Blue label, white pages listed at $4K or best offer sold yesterday for $3.75K I will say that there are a few CGC 9.6's still in auction that are already at strong prices. It should be interesting to see where they end in the next few days. And in addition to the 9.4's-9.8's, it should be noted that 9.2's have really taken off during the past 6 weeks.
