Do the right thing Disqualify yourself from that statement Oh you have a copy now I get it. I guess i have to give you a Call and bring a briefcase of money to you I do have a coverless copy missing last page I can throw in on the Deal.

Aman619 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 A 9.2 Superman ! Would be a 5M + sale. And maybe not even the best copy. Then again, after this book sells, more HG copies of Marvel 1 could help it’s sales reach higher numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I underestimated the prince of the sea Clark never would give you a bad time. I really apricate our friendship and understand why you sold your Batman 1. I think this is a crazy price for a Marvel 1 in 2.5. I will say Key books are getting so rare in low grade that people have to buy something now or will never have a chance to buy 1 again.

Harold the influx of new money seems unstoppable. What was once considered common is no longer, I guess The new money is directed at keys and highest graded. Do you think books that don’t fit into those 2 categories are benefiting from this trend? Are the run-of-the mill books also experiencing crazy price gains?

Are the run-of-the mill books also experiencing crazy price gains? I truly don’t know I had my Tec 27 restored 40 years ago and all the key Dealers at the time called it a restored vg/f. I have always believed that having it restored in today's time would not benefit the price any. Buyers want high grade or low grade the middle don't seem to do much. Heritage had a CBCS E restored 4.5 Tec 27 that sold for 167k in 2016 Detective Comics #27 (DC, 1939) CBCS Restored VG+ 4.5 Extensive | Lot #91043 | Heritage Auctions (ha.com) I think and the sale that closed on the 7.0 E was 336 Detective Comics #27 (DC, 1939) CGC Apparent FN/VF 7.0 Extensive | Lot #91041 | Heritage Auctions (ha.com) so as we know prices have jumped so the 167k 2016 sale of none cgc book would go way higher now KCOComics and GreatCaesarsGhost 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisco37 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Didn't this one used to be a 9.0? I always thought it was over graded at a 9.0 because of the writing. I guess it got the "historical notation" exemption back then and now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
