tvindy Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 My 9.6 TMNT #1 is about to go up for auction on Clink:https://www.comiclink.com/auctions/item.asp?back=%2FAUCTIONS%2FPREVIEW.ASP%3Fcode%3D2022may%26pg%3D2%23Item_1560433&id=1560433&itemType=0 Before the stock market and crypto crash, I predicted that it would go for about $80,000. Now I don't know, but I'm betting it will go for less than that. I'd be curious to know what you guys think.

I hope I’m wrong, but I’m between $55,000 and $65,000 hammer, thinking closer to $55,000. tvindy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Comics Trip Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 GOOD LUCK on this Auction - I also have a 9.6 that I am committed to sitting on for as long as possible - hoping your result is higher than 55k! tvindy, ADAMANTIUM and sorrenmj 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvindy Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Thank you, everyone! This will definitely be exciting for me. Any speculation (good or bad) on the final price is welcome. Jesse-Lee, ADAMANTIUM and MattLaw90 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all collectables will take a beating now I’m glad I sold when I did ( not Tmnt but in general ). The world is a very unstable place and the economy in North America a steaming pile of dung. Money won’t stay parked in collectables if other tangible assets are plummeting . Hope you can get some good money but those crazy highs are long gone .

Then the crash happened just before the auction started. I'm still hoping to be pleasantly surprised. ADAMANTIUM and Subby1938 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you think the softer market doesn’t affect the price at all? Nor the fact that a sig series 9.6 is on HA right now and Quinten’s 9.4 is on comicconnect and all three hammer roughly at the same time? I mean, I already have my 9.0 and not looking to upgrade, but if I’m parking 70k anywhere, I’m keeping my powder dry for quintens book due to the history. tvindy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could definitely have an effect, especially since it's signed and has white page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it got a Blue label. tvindy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
