A $3,000 thrill bid by Showcase-New-England

 

Where's Brad Savage? I still remember his thunderous boast at a Sotheby's auction that he would pay the most!

 

One collector, 2 dealers.

Man, you guys must really, really, really like X-men 35 to pay that. I am not saying a 9.8 isn't worth it, just seems.....okay, I am saying that price and that grade for that comic don't work for me. But I am Cheap Bastiche, I guess.

[uclapeterg]

So has this book been pressed?

[OldGuy]

Man, you guys must really, really, really like X-men 35 to pay that.

 

I don't think anyone here has bid on it.

[Timulty]

Comicgeek did. How are the dogs? I hope well. How are the comics? I hope, unsoiled.

[OldGuy]

"Here" as in this thread. "You guys" is a fairly broad generalization, especially when it doesn't apply to anyone in the current thread. Dontcha think? BTW, Comgeek is a member in name only. 131 posts in over three years that are 90% 'for sale' posts falls far short of my idea of "a member of the forum".

 

Dogs are great. Going on 20 years now and never had a neutered male scent mark anything, much less my boxed and bagged comics (wouldn't that fall under 'a good reason to bag your comics?), but I'll be sure you're the first to know if it ever happens.

[Timulty]

Yeah, now that I mention it. That will be the time, they decide to decorate the place. Yeah, pretty broad generalization and I assumed(don't go Benny Hill on me!) that someone in this thread was buying. My bad. Lo siento mucho.

If I had 4k or so of throw away money I would be all over that. 9.8 with 2 of the most popular characters(X-men and SpiderMan) together

Spidey, the X-Men and Werner Roth! Who wouldn't chuck $4K at it?

[Silver Surfer]

My guess is $4,150.

[JiveTurkeyMoFo]

Not to be outdone on uber high grade Spidey X-Overs....

 

Avengers # 11 9.6 White pages

 

Wasn't there also a TTA # 57 in 9.6 in ebay recently?

Even if I had 4k to throw, I wouldn't buy this book.

I think I'd much rather have this book although the asking price seems a wee bit high.

[Yenling29]

That is one nice comic!!

High bidder is a big time registry user (super duper X-Men set) and some time forum member poster. All around good guy, and I hope he wins it!!!!

I sold a 9.4 white about 2 years ago for $1225 so $4700 does not sound like a lot for X men, Spidey, black cover, only 9.8 white pages early silver age.....just my opinion.....i would not be surprised if the book hit well over that.

 

Does Doug know about this book

Probably not.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mid issue SA x-men.. how craptacular. I'd pay an easy $200. Maybe even $300, and I can't think of a reason to pay more.
