G.A.tor Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 That Tec 27 only sold for 50K in '04. It's really gone up to 90K in the last 3 years (doubled)? indeed it has...if you were not watching during the heritage years of summer of 2003 to fall of 2004, you missed out seeing about 6 copies of tec 27, all cgc blue from 1.0 to 3.0 to 4.0 (multiple copies) and a slight 6.0 be offered, and I think 3 more were on ebay during that same time...there was a little swing down in the price, due to the quantity temp available, relative to supply, and the economy was a little slower then (rebounding post 9/11).... "that" was the time to buy tec 27's! but today, all pre robin tecs are back in the 1.5 to 2x guide mode, with 35 being the exception, it is about 4-5x guide! gator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lou_fine Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 That Tec 27 only sold for 50K in '04. It's really gone up to 90K in the last 3 years (doubled)? A lot of the major books have, a Tec #31 CGC 5.0 sold for $8,000 in 2004, then $13,500 in Novemeber 2006, the Crippin 5.5 sold for $17,327 a year ago so these books are red hot and no signs of slowing down. And this increase in price all so accurately captured by Overstreet as evident by the following: 1) Value of 'Tec 31 in Fine 6.0 in 2004 guide was $8,445 2) Value of 'Tec 31 in Fine 6.0 in 2007 guide now at $10,200 for an almost 21% increase in value over 4 years As for the doubling in value for the VG 'Tec 27, Overstreet must definitely have this one right as evident by the following: 1) Value of 'Tec 27 in VG 4.0 in 2004 was $62,500 2) Value of 'Tec 27 in VG 4.0 in 2007 now at $67,000 for a huge 7.2% increase in 4 years. Now, that's what I call doubling! Interesting to note that the OS values were a lot closer in 2004 and probably even a bit on the high side as compared to now. Of course, not sure if we've had any sales lately to verify the higher dollars that we are throwing around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase4 Posted August 31, 2007 Author Share Posted August 31, 2007 Both of these keys sold for $34,500 in 2005. The AA16 is tied with 3 other copies as the highest certified, but as we have seen from fellow Forumites such as Bangzoom, there are substantially nicer copies out there. Which one would you choose, and why ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 not even a contest...AA 16 without hesitation for me rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashrael Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I mean, does anyone under 30 even know who the Spectre is anymore? I do (I'm 28) and I would also pick MF52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiverbones Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 yeah, not even close. May as well be AA16 vs. spawn #1.... AA16 all the way, far better book in every regard, condition doesn't even enter the picture for me on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiverbones Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 now that is a tough one. In the end I have to go with tec1, but that was not an easy choice. I really like the 1st black hood, and the pedigree & condition, well, can't be beat. But tec1 is an icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 (edited) tec 1, easy choice again, for me...no interest in black hood (at least not yet) rick Edited August 31, 2007 by Detective27Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.A.tor Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 ok , this one is "tougher"....that supes 2 is cool, but I would go with AS 1 simply because it is the church copy, and looks fantastic! rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Hand ® Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I'd take both Church copies, but if the Tec 1 didn't have extensive resto but slight, I would have taken that over the TN9 and I'm a Top Notch collector. All things being equal, the TN9 is not that big of a book without the Pedigree factor, although the naked women floating in the fire is pretty cool and the stories are great.
