Mdrguy101 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I'm looking into buying a book that is CGC 9.6 Curator Pedigree. I'm guessing the Pedigree is a special collection, but does it double the value? I'v never owner a pedigree conic, but the Seller is asking twice the FMV of a 9.6 so wondering if this is fair. Thanks for any info you have on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExNihilo Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Personal opinion, but a book is a book. Pedigree doesn't matter much to me and if there's a similar book for half the price, i'll go for the un-Pedigreed version every time. The only instance in which a book coming from a collection might be of added value is if it's from the creator themself. For example, there are some books you can get from ComicSketchArt that are "from the collection of Greg Capullo" or Scott Snyder or whomever they represent. It's basically the creator copies the publishers give them as part of their contract, but it's still cool to have the added provenance. If I'm not mistaken, a few books out there are from the collection of Nicolas Cage. I'd certainly assign a premium to any Ghost Riders from his collection.

comicginger1789 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Depends on your view of Pedigree books. Generally tho they do command a premium over non pedigree copies. How much depends on the book, the pedigree and ultimately the people who want to buy it. revat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
