GM8 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 A 9.8 just appeared again on Comic Connect, this time asking $200K buy it now, or highest offer ($150k currently). The same book was on ebay a while back asking $100k before being taken down. Last 9.8 sold for $180K on PWCC. https://www.comicconnect.com/item/1003292 pubmonkey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The books are signed by Pete and Kev on the indica. Notes say "Kevin B. Eastman" and "Peter Laird" written on inside. which is how CGC treats signatures on the inside of the book.

Not to prattle or I'd ask if you waited until this, but that sounds like the perfect sub if you were able to wait until the price change with cgc? I say this as I sent in a magazine soon after the change that might be back here soon! Save at least "some" dough as it went down for modern mags like $10 Makes me wonder why I had waited all those years, guess it paid off 😂 All around congrats though!

pubmonkey Posted July 24, 2023 Author Share Posted July 24, 2023 A couple of #1 9.8's in upcoming auctions: ComicLink #1 9.8 ComicConnect #1 9.8 There are now 42 copies in 9.8 and 70 in 9.6. Do you think the growing population will have a negative or positive impact on the values? GM8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ComicConnect is a first time on the public market that I can see from my database. I think the ratio of 9.8 to 9.6 is not a negative for values. The overall # has grown but the numbers are still very small relatively. Edited July 26, 2023 by GM8 pubmonkey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hasn't started yet so we will have to wait for play by play. $23k so far on the CC copy... GM8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like somebody placed something on top of the CGC holder and definitely not appealing for a $192K book. ADAMANTIUM and GM8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a simple but stressful fix. Reholder to CGC but with loads of insurance and painful wait until its back safe. lou_fine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be correct, there appears to be a discount to selling on Clink versus Heritage and Comic Connect, at least for the 9.8 grade. Here are a few examples: Heritage: 11/21/19 $52.8K Clink: 12/5/19 $50K CConnect: 4/30/20 $59K Clink: 7/7/20 $58K Clink: 12/9/21 $198K CConnect: 12/14/21 $231K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So on a 52.8K final, you're looking at 27% of that sale going to Heritage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
