Dimebag_D Posted April 28 Author Share Posted April 28 I’m just speculating but could be small speaking role and a fight scene with scarlet witch. Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeeksAreMyPeeps Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 If you mean the new series, I imagine that anyone that wants one already ordered a handful. The Exiles issue that has her pick up the shield may get a bump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAR1979 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 (edited) I may be wrong but I seem to recall a conversation after the first Cap Movie in which it was determined that Peggy Carter's first cover appearance was Captain America 232. It lacks the high population #'s speculators and flippers require therefore it may not get a whole lotta love. Books CGC Label CGC Total Avg.

awakeintheashes Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Well the 1:25 is on fire. I sold mine a week too early Still made a nice profit, but nothing like the prices in the last 24 hours Dimebag_D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 If she appears, sure that issue will get a bump at some point. Maybe it is a $10-20 bump, maybe it is a $50-100 bump. Regardless of what kind of bump it gets, it is NOT a book I would speculate or try to find with hopes of selling at the perfect time. Unless you are experienced in doing so, being able to time it so you sell a book at that perfect moment when the value peaks (traditionally when a trailer drops is the largest bump, if one is to be had, followed by the weekend of the film). The market is also getting smarter, so while most recently with the new Thor trailer you saw some record sales of that issue with Jane Foster as Thor on the cover. However the window for those high sales seemed smaller than ever because almost immediately, the market was flooded as people raced to list theirs and now I would argue, the peak for that book is past. Could it jump to new heights again at the time of the film? Maybe but I think those who REALLY wanted it because they love the character probably already have it. That leaves the "I am going to buy this to sell for more" crowd left out there and well, if that is the only market, there will be no market for a book like this. Or at least a very small market. And again, it is also possible that this movie is amazing and new waves of fans fall in love and desire the book so it may have staying power....BUT I always harken back to the character in comics. Are they loved? Do they have a large following? Call me not in touch with the market but I don't think the Jane Foster as Thor fans are a large group and THAT would make me wary of wanting to try to speculate long term (or at all) on this book in particular.

Yeah, I got busy with work and travel this month and knew I should have pulled it as the trailers leaked out. Oh well. I made money, and someone else will make money.

The time to speculate on any new book is with pre-orders at a discount. Upon release you sell enough to recover your costs + an acceptable profit, reinvest the original capital + profits into the next spec book, and then sell off the rest over time while holding some for max potential returns. It is a formula that works well if you have enough storage space to do it. MAR1979, comicginger1789 and Dimebag_D 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
