I would agree. It arguably the key to the whole storyline surrounding the symbiote costume and eventually Venom. Not to the level of #252 and #300, but definitely more important than it is given credit for.

So this book is already up to a silly number in this month's Clink auction. How high do you think it will go?

That's a sharp book.

 

I'm going to go downstairs to my basement and shed some tears over my 9.4.

I don't think its a silly number unless it goes over 10K

Maybe its just me, but I can't see paying even $1,000 for a dirt common Copper book, even if it is the first full Venom, because of the number in the corner. What does a 9.8 pull, like $500? I have an easier time wrapping my mind around that, but if this 9.9 even gets into the zip code of $10K that would be lunacy IMHO. Especially when you consider that by the time that book gets shipped to the new owner it will probably be a 9.8 at best due to the fine handling of FedEx/UPS.

My guess is the Spidey 300 9.9 will settle in the 5-6K range which is 10 times 9.8.

So the #300 9.9 closed at $6101, which was more than I thought it would/should get but seems to be par for the course for the aggressive prices some books were getting. Still seems high to me...

there used to be quite a few between 200-300 that were really tough to find in 9.8s around 2001-2003 but all the pressing has really changed that. nowdays you can find most in 9.8s for not much money.

But it was less than half of what that New Mutants 98 CGC 9.9 closed at. I am still floored it ended at $12,000 (+). Cool book to own, though.

Here is one of my favorites. This was actually the first Spidey issue that I ever purchased off the rack. I just recently got this copy to replace the now coverless one from my childhood.

Great book!

Nice! I love ASMs from this period. I had a subscription from (around) 210-236. After that, I missed a few months but then started buying new off the rack.

[mysterio]

So apparently a 9.9 of #275 is worth 43 times the 9.8 price. That seems a little nutty to me...

Every time someone sees 9.9 in the corner, the not_in_tune_with_social_norms crazy goes through the roof.
