Daredevils - Federal Hill Collection On CLink 0

[JohnFranklin]

So I've only been looking at the Daredevils and perhaps its me, but some of the prices being bid and there are 6 days left seem to defy logic.  Daredevil #55 - 9.8 - Bowling Green Pedigree bids are up to $5,100 (sold 9 years ago for $1,016 according to GPA) and  Daredevil #130 - 9.8 bids are up to $1,200 (according to GPA most paid ever was $375 in 2004, in 2009 I think a 9.8 sold for $215). I realize GPA is not the end all relative to market value but it represents enough to make these prices appear pretty inflated but I "ain't' complaining.

It's only a 9.8, surely you have better things to do with your time and money.

I never see NM copies of that book available. I’m curious about the wrap. That black cover is ruined with any hint of frontal miswrap.

Not sure why you are too lazy to take a look for yourself, but here's a scan of the book for you anyways:

Quoting prices from GPA from 2004 & 2009 in relation to the current market is going to give you a headache.

Exactly that too. Prices on almost everything are very aggressive, and probably counter-intuitive, especially if you spend a lot of bong time. Not that there is anything wrong with thaat..

Bong or no bong

 

That’s a sweet looking copy.

He was just seeing if you would go to the end of your chain and bark. Interesting how that book appears to have color touch along the spine.  At least in some of the cracks.

Yet if this were the Lev Gleason Daredevil on a 10-cent funnybook no one would balk at five times that price for a mid-grade copy. What a great cover!

Well, the thing that you forgot to point out here in your comparison is that although there are already 54 copies of the Marvel DD 130 slabbed by CGC, there is only the one single copy of the Lev Gleason DD 130 slabbed to date.  

It should also be noted that this one single copy of the Lev Gleason DD 130 is a CGC 6.5 graded copy and that there are a total of 49 copies out of the 54 total slabbed copies of the Marvel DD 130 that's been graded higher than CGC 6.5 to date so far.

Man there are some insanely beautiful DDs from the collection! It has been fun watching and only going to get more interesting with some of these

I was simply pointing out that it is a striking cover, one that uses a theme that is enduringly popular on any golden age books of that milieu. That's all I was getting at.
