InfantTerrible Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I've been following IH181, which I think probably the bubbliest book of them all, I noticed that its price has ease up a bit. Peak was late-March, early April, grade 8.5-9 were bought at 12-14K, but lately buyers could bargain for these for 9-11K I haven't been following other books, so would like to know others observations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkowl Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I doubt things are slowing down. Looks like completed eBay listings for a 9.0 is averaging 12K to 14K. jason4 and littledoom 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two 9.0 books before that sold for nearly 14K. So like I said, 12k to 14k is what they seem to be selling for on eBay, and I don’t see ANY 9.0 copies that sold for nearly 14K in the month of March on eBay. Finally, the last sale price doesn’t really mean anything as a collective. So no, I really don’t see any significant amount of data indicating that this book is slowing down, not in 9.0, anyway.

Darkowl Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) Looking at 8.5 grades, I can see how one might think that this book is slowing down a little. But I’m still not seeing enough data to draw any conclusions that H181 is slowing down as a whole, especially when you consider that pre-movie speculation price jumps really haven’t occurred yet. We might see some dormant activity, but I highly doubt this is where H181 levels off. Edited April 26, 2021 by Darkowl BoogieWoogie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjonahjameson11 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 For books that I'm watching, ASM 238 has slowed and actually dropped quite a bit from its peak 4-5 weeks ago. The other books that I'm tracking are still in high demand at ever-increasing prices: ASM 121, 129, 194, 195, 210, 252, 298, 299, 300, 326, 365, Ann 16 Hulk 340 Thor 337 MB1952, Darkowl and Wolverinex 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't bother checking the mid to low grades, just like in real-estate, you want to observe the high-ends to see if there's any turn. they are the ones that driving the prices.

The Meta Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Everything is hitting stupid numbers For me, it's at the point of Is this a peak and crash situation? Or Is this an influx of new collectors All my purchases now, besides what I normally collect, are based on getting books I've always wanted now at inflated prices and picking the ones that I feel will never come down again (hence my xmen 12 pickup) Arkham and waaaghboss 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
