Silver Surfer Collecting Thread!

Ok, has anyone been following the SS #1 9.8 Boston copy. There are 2 sales recorded for the book on GPA, one in September, and one in Aug. $14,000 a piece.

 

A there's a very obvious reason for this, ....and it isn't an attempt at the quickest flip of a Surfer issue!

 

There are now TWO copies of SS#1 9.8 on the census, and they are BOTH Boston's. One started life as a 9.8, the other started life as a 9.6.

I personally feel the fault here lies with CGC. If they had 3-4 guys go over it the first time and decide it was a 9.6, what in the world makes them change all their collective 'experts, professional, and valuable' opinions a good number of months down the track. confused-smiley-013.gifjuggle.gif

Dunno anything about Boston 9.8 #1s, but here is my copy of the all-Kirby ish that made me wish Stan and Jack had collaboratively produced alot more SS issues than they did:

 

 

 

Thanks for that insightful input.

I just spoke with Bill Hughes, and apparently the OW/W Boston #1 9.8 copy was sold to private collector, who also picked up the Pacific Coast #4 9.8 off Bill at the same time.

 

Which with a quick bit of math's made that a $22,000 trip to the con for that guy foreheadslap.gif

 

At this point I'll just keep quiet, and stop rattling his book. flowerred.gif

Perhaps you've forgotten with the passage of a single board page that this thread was started by Skybolt, who asked all to post their high grade and/or favorite SS issues.

So your just intersted in seeing pretty pictures? confused-smiley-013.gif Or are you asking I go back re-edit and throw a sign-offtopic.gif sign up.

Either way, your scarring me something firece with you general apathy.
