Nilo2 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hey all, can anyone out there clue me in on the spike into valuations for Web of Spider-man #8? The book has soared in value over the last 6/12 months but, as far as I know, it’s not a key issue. Any thoughts? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Pontoon Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Soared in value how so? There's over 30 copies on ebay right now, with about a dozen priced at $5 or under. Raw copies look to be selling in the $1-$10 range. I see a lot with crazy asking prices but that doesn't mean they are selling for those prices. Graded copy sales have been flat or dipping, except for a single $100 outlier 9.6 that sold last November. A 9.8 only hit $52 in January. It's entirely possible there's some recent spec bump I'm unaware of, but I'm not seeing any great rise in value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, A unwise man once said "I can poop in a jar and put it on Ebay for $10000 and become rich because what you see is what it is worth" In all seriousness, book has had few sales on eBay averaging $5 or so plus shipping. My guess at some of the inflated asking prices are that some are Canadian Price variants (a wave of bozos are trying to pump up prices on EVERY CPV) and it is a nice Vess cover. Plus, like anything at the moment, put a huge price on it and ya never know. Cards, pogs, crazy bones...weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee its all worth a fortune weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

I see recent sales for around $100 to $110, and now a 9.8 for ~$190 listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nilo2 Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hi, I was specifically reacting to the pricing for the book on GoCollect. They have it at $110 in 9.8. Also seeing a wacky spike in Web #18. GoCollect just placed a value of $800 on that book in 9.8. And $325 in 9.6!... Crazy IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JazzMan Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Bogus data. GPA is hovering around $190 for #18. And #8 is at around $90 with the last sale at $52. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAMANTIUM Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 ya I even checked #118 just to see if sales showed that gocollect forgot to enter a "#1" but its best at 9.8 is still only between $400 and $500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigLeagueCHEW Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Should we reach out and ask that the site be renamed to dontcollect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicginger1789 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Go collect often has these oddities...I recently catalogued a Fine copy of Batman #224 and GoCollect said it had a value of $140 in that grade. A few days later, it corrected to a more sensible $42. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
