I don't follow Timely titles too closely but GPA says $4300 for a 7.0 in 2020, but $3400 for a 2.0 in 2022. Will be interesting to see if this even gets close to the original sale price, but I'd take the under. https://comics.ha.com/itm/golden-age-1938-1955-/sub-mariner-comics-32-the-promise-collection-pedigree-timely-1949-cgc-fn-vf-70-off-white-to-white-pages/a/7283-93082.s?ic4=GalleryView-Thumbnail-071515 It's a great book, the Swan Song for Subby. featuring a book length origin story, from when his parents first met up through his initial contact with the humans in New York. It's the only GA Subby cover by Everett and features his art throughout. szucchini 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDarkseid1 Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 (edited) I don’t think everyone should be surprised by these lower sales. Economy isn’t what it was 1-2 years ago. Crypto market has absolutely tanked, so assuming they entered the market previously it’s definitely showing. Clearly a price correction going on with a lot of books. Overall though the market feels solid still. If anything now’s a good time to buy.

While I've done cursory checks of other sites, I haven't catalogued any reselling from them as of yet.

One of which I got caught up in the hype and bid foolishly. Like the book, but not the price. It's a loooong term hold. Here's one I'm extremely happy with. An "Armand" copy. Waited quite a while for just the right copy to go after. Couldn't be happier. lou_fine, tth2, GreatCaesarsGhost and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
