Admittedly stuff I submitted was not the cream of the crop. With them sinking like a stone sure I don't sell comics. 1 - 3rd 9.6w, 4th 9.6w 5,6,7 CGC 9.8w Donatello 1 CCC 9.8w All were my original when new LCS purchases. Only sent in for nostalgia's sake and #5 is my favorite Turtles cover That's nothing to sneeze at MAR1979 and BDubs 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely amazing! How'd the 2 #3 Laird Variants grade? I'm currently holding a 9.6 looking for a 9.8 The Grades ARE impressive. So is the Walk Through shipping and insurance cost from the #1! I my #3s are all standard all blue Laird signs....they are on a slow boat at CGC now. BDubs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's Mark Wilson's kid and he runs those auctions completely fee free but he's also selling his own books in the auctions so shilling would be easy. I was considering sending a book in as a try out for the next auction but the seller portal is horrible. BDubs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heritage sold an 8.5 last year for $22,000. I know it’s not a yellow label but it’s pretty easy to tell Peter and Kevin’s signatures and head busts are real. So is it Really super strong for a 10% increase over last sale? BDubs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last blue 8.5 sold for $18600 according to GPA, but that might be a low sale outlier. Overall, looks like TMNT books have decreased a bit, like everything else, so just seems funny for a green label book to go that high.

A lot of peters signings didn’t have a Cgc representative there so it wasn’t always easy to get a yellow label Peter book.

This one may set the floor or begin the bounce back. It's a strong bid for 8 days left. ADAMANTIUM and sorrenmj 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Comics Trip Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 186k.... GM8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 In general I like how they make it so that the offer has to be a 50% premium to the cost paid, but I think when it gets to six figures that percentage can probably be relaxed. Would the buyer really turn down a 275k offer made today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GM8 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 On 9/13/2022 at 3:21 PM, The Comics Trip said: 186k.... A dip in the price for this book, but not to the doomsday levels some predict. Previous sale was $223,222 at Pedigree on 3/9/22, so this $186K sale is a 17% drop from that previous sale. Interestingly, this exact book (SN# 1262933001) last sold by my records way back on 11/20/2014 at Heritage also for a paltry $14,938. Oh to have a time machine!
