NinjaSealed Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I love the DD #1 page and though it could have went a lot higher, 10k for the V page feels like a bargain in todays market... grapeape 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Matches_Malone Posted April 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) Zecks Kravens Last Hunt page sold for $28,800 with the Juice. I just sold that piece for $7K during ComicArtLive Con back in October. Great flip!. Nice profit in just 6 months. Congrats to the seller. Funny thing is that I received multiple emails saying that I had it over priced at $7K Edited April 1, 2021 by Matches_Malone Twanj, John E., tth2 and 6 others 6 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grapeape Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 $288 k on the DD 1 page. In the 90’s that page was listed by a dealer for $6,500. That was so much money back then for ole grape ape. But I knew it was a piece of history. Maybe ten years ago this page sat on eBay with a BIN price of $100k. Ambitious as hell no? Both previous price points a bargain compared to today. You are crazy to give your best stuff to a dealer or privately. Auction Fever is real. These prices are really bringing me joy and a bit of anxiety honestly.

G.A.tor Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Why did the ff72 surfer page go so high? I was hopeful I could win 60 or less. Didn’t happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my immediate reaction as well - I mean the DD page being so sweet but the price... The DD page, if you value as his true first appearance then it is a bit of a unicorn piece so price is whatever the top 2 want it to be - but I was impressed! The V, was it an interlude page or something...perhaps that suppressed the price. Edited April 1, 2021 by mtlevy1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is always a conflict on when things sell high as it is nice that this stuff is worth something but darling wife is always - Sell It! So Robert - well don't tell us how you responded but you do have some very fine art in your collection.... grapeape 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have vertigo from seeing art I saw or held in my hands in the nineties sell today for crazy 💰 On January 1, 2000 Apple stock was valued at .......$.93 cents. It's $123 today (taken into considering all stock splits). If that piece was really $3k back on January 1, 2000 and it went up the same multiple as Apple stock it should have sold for ....$396,000. Now clearly most stocks have not performed as well as Apple. But guess what, I bet there are tens of thousands of art pages that have barely doubled in 20 years. Obviously not the popular characters and artist, but plenty of non descript pages. My point is that it isn't like comic art is the only thing in this world soaring in price. Quality (be it stocks or art) is always going to increase much faster than the norm. Will_K 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Robert, I know the feeling. The wives usually say "sell it" so we can renovate the house. They don't understand that when I want to retire, I can't just sell the upgraded bathroom right for a profit. And yes Robert has an awesome collection. grapeape and ThothAmon 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Foolkiller Posted April 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 1, 2021 5 hours ago, Bill C said: Infantino/Anderson MIS 90 splash at 33.6K (with BP). It really is an A+ level example but was surprised it went this high. I knew a few years ago the Donnellys got the MIS 75 splash (another A+) at a song, but this newest price seems very healthy. Glad to see a SA Infantino splash get some decent love. I'm the buyer on this -- I'm a huge Murphy fan and a huge fan of his MIS run, so I was willing to go up for it, there's not a lot of really good splashes on the market from this title. I have another splash that isn't as good but I did acquire recently for much less. grapeape, tth2, batman_fan and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
