$$$$What is up with Captain America #308 1st app Armadillo $$$$$ 0

[Blastaar]

My local store has it priced at $80 and I've seen bay prices from $5-$200. What am I missing?

I believe it is a tie-in with Secret Wars 2, which means it has an unlimited upside.

I have no idea, but when I looked 9,8 sold for $100 or thereabouts, perhaps it is a hopeful prospect at least for those selling

I bought I think a nearby issue of the 1st madcap, and I'm still wondering why haha, but I enjoyed the character back when I read Deadpool. 

Was there a reason this one caught your eye to begin with? Were you after it but then noticed the tag? Or from out of nowhere?

I was flipping through the caps at the local shop and this one stood out from all the $4 ones. I was like what the heck. Captain America 387 was priced $40 which makes no sense.

Maybe he’s gonna be in Deadpool wolverines

Are peeps still shelling out solid coin for the first "White Rabbit"  (MTU 131) ?

Sold 9.8's are only going for $100, raws $5.

Serpent Society will be in the new Cap movie, I believe. Maybe a tie to that.

Went down to the shop across town today and got a NM raw for $5. Anybody want to buy it for $75?

Just sit back and watch the money come in. By the time Armadillo 3 hits the screen I’ll be resting on the beach.

He’s just one of those lovable, priceless goofball Marvel bit characters (Woodgod, Impossible Man, Paste Pot Pete, etc). Long overdue love gettin’ shown!

While I think that’s all true, I doubt it’s the price hike explanation.
