Traded so,e biggins for more biggins lol

Found it at the LCS for $50, I traded for it, about $62 cost to me, for these two!  :banana:

Only vg but I'll take it, as it was more my collecting focus, than the $62 of books I traded. I traded under copies of x-men 99 and 95 only fair condition and some invincible under copies like #68 1st dinosaurus and #75, which I already submitted one and came back 9.6. I think a vf punisher limited #2 was in there as well. So dealer got something that'll sell for him I think. 

It did complete my X-men 30 center's, but that's a bronze, had the one pic

The one book that surprised me was the #3 Variant.  It went for $10k plus and I thought at the end the two or three people were going to continue higher bids after my stop around 8750. ... search is on.  Seemed very high for final price.  

Let me know your thoughts on the value of a TMNT #10 First printing, 9.8, with SS?  (and if you might be interested!?).   I'm having a hard time finding a comp to figure out what I should price it at!!

Cheers.

You have this monologue saved somewhere, I assume. You break it out once a month or so. 

The Transformers 1 9.9 outrage paragraph is in the same word document. :whistle:

Oh, come on now...........................................Transformers 1 is just so "yesterday" in today's fast moving comic book marketplace.  :gossip:

You guys need to keep up to speed as it's now all about rare and valuable books like DC Comics Presents 26 at $40,005 and Thor 337 at $32K.  lol

Doug from Pedigree got back to me on the 9.8 1st print that sold on 3/9/22 on his site: $223,000. It seems like these have hit a plateau around the $225-250K range.

My issue is the guy that outbid me for the #1 told Doug he had to sell his 9.8 prior to payment. My bid would have been a winner and now Doug is trying to have me buy the 9.8 at $215k so the guy pays for the auction. That’s not how this works.

I took the time to add descriptions and photos for my TMNT collection. I don’t know the process but it may be the most completed overall registry for TMNT Mirage Studios vol. 1.  I continue to search for the 3-5 comics left to complete it. If anyone wishes to sell a comic that I’m missing I will pay premium. Thanks.

Someone is selling a 9.8 to buy a 9.8?

What grade is that Thor 337?  I have a few 9.8's I'd be willing to let go for $30k a piece.

I believe the one I was bidding on was a Signature Series and from what I was emailed, the winner decided that he had to sell the Universal prior to payment of the SS #1 9.8...  after the point.  I am happy with the dozens of books I did win however.  Great auction house, just not buying the Universal to help the db that changed the terms of auction.  I digress.  Thanks for allowing me to vent.  :ohnoez:

Wait I'm confused.  What did the SS hammer at and what book were you being offered?  Were they trying to sell you the Universal for the price of the SS??
