On eBay Comicmylars had his 9.4 listed at roughly $40K best offer, and now he’s bumped it to $55K but no offer. With 8.5’s selling in the $17K range, I’d imagine a 9.4 would sell at least around $32K-$35K at auction, but maybe more. The last 9.4 on eBay sold for $17,250.43 on July 19th. I don't see it doubling in value in a month. The 8.5 on eBay sold for $15,500 BIN on August 9th. At auction? I'm thinking $23-25,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 8.5 just sold for a little over $16K (that's pre sales tax) on Ebay and that was after the BIN you brought up: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Teenage-Mutant-Ninja-Turtles-1-FIRST-PRINT-CGC-8-5/264837307360?hash=item3da9889be0:g:7PQAAOSwubdfPKid Comparing this book in any grade or sale between now and July 19th is not even remotely the same. Sales from then to now are literally night and day. The 9.4 you referenced was purchased right as the book became hot, literally the moment. As far as this 8.5 auction goes, the BIN you referenced and the 7.5 that sold for $12,500 on C'link (pre sales tax), they are clear indicators a 9.4 would sell for considerably more now. Definitely more than $23K-$25K. Oh and that 7.5 sold for double in less than a month. Edited September 2, 2020 by LDarkseid1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I mean like I originally said and imop, I could see a 9.4 going for somewhere over $30K at auction. That's just my feeling based off what I've seen sales be up to this date. I could be wrong, but it's my thoughts. Edited September 3, 2020 by LDarkseid1 dem1138 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also FTR always felt #2 was very undervalued. Not like 15,000 is a giant print run and it’s such a great cover. And for whatever reason I rarely saw 9.8 #2s with white pages... it always seems to be ow/w. I haven’t really noticed a trend in page quality. There don’t seem to be enough copies to be picky.

Other than 2 side by side same price and grade, the white pages would sell, I mean if you have white pages more then likely you'll get the going price. Not to just say the obvious but it's worth stating imo. If anyone is looking for a copy they might not be picky, but deem the going price worth the sale this is a speculation thread hahah, so I may get to say this just to say something haha LDarkseid1, pubmonkey and GM8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
