gadzukes Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 OK.... I admit I'm being a little lazy here. I could do my own research, but I just thought I'd put the question out here to save myself some time. Has anyone noticed the value boom moving the needle on Pre Hero Marvels?

bc Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Yes. Prices have been strong on the PHM books as well for the last several months. A TOS 2 in 8.0 went for $6,500 and a (unicorn) TOS 37 in 9.8 (!!!) went for $13,800. Fin Fang Foom (ST89) got a price bump due to some movie rumors.... Overall the PHM market has been very healthy. -bc gadzukes, frozentundraguy, Frisco Larson and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadzukes Posted May 5, 2021 Author Share Posted May 5, 2021 I've had a thought of sending my PHM slabs into CL or CC, but if the value boom hadn't hit them then there's probably no point. I'll dig them out and have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mmehdy Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Prices will increase as those books for years have been underrated, you might want to check out the two Ditko marvel masterworks reprints, those books show the quality of art and story...great buys..super buys especially unrestored and ungraded books...best deal out there for SA marvels bc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marvelmaniac Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Pre-Code/Pre Hero JIM (1 - 33, I have 11 issues between 1- 33) and ST(1 - 42, I have 14 issues between 1 - 42) are the only runs I have not completed. I stopped trying over 12 years ago, the prices then were getting out of hand. I have no problem with "Well Loved" books (PR 0.5, FR 1.0, FR/GD 1.5) but even copies in that condition were selling for $100.00 + and as I have gotten older I can no longer see spending that kind of money for a comic book. So, basically, if the prices continue to rise it will benefit my kids when they sell my books after I am gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
