spookley Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Are we just at the tip of the iceberg, waiting for an explosion in JLA prices? I've seen what's been going on with the Avengers..... Can't wait to see what Tim's books are gonna fetch in the Heritage Auction.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I helped push the #19 up. Knew I wouldn't get it cuz i don't pay a premium for peds. The #61 was a pleasant surprise! Gotta update my $preadsheet on that one (wonder if a 9.6 #62 -also a black cover with similar sub #s- would sell in the same ballpark). I attribute the disparity between Avengers vs JLA to the likelihood of the Marvel movie against the iffiness towards a DC flick. There's also a rumor floating around that there are a few more Marvel fans than DC? Pshaw!! Tim's books are gonna fetch whatever I offer for them.

tth2 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 JLA #61 CGC 9.6....off-white/white pages....$1100 I`ll see your :o and raise you another :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I helped push the #19 up. Knew I wouldn't get it cuz i don't pay a premium for peds. What did you bid, Rick? I maxed out at $1234. I really wanted the book, even though it`s only a 9.2. Can`t believe that I ended up being only 2/3 of the way to the winning bid, and who knows what the winning bidder`s max bid was. Tim's books are gonna fetch whatever I offer for them. Guess my daughter`s going to be going to a state university! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spookley Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Since we are comparing Avengers to JLA.... What the hell happened with this one....Avengers #16 CGC 9.0 for $2600 There's gotta be tons of these in VF/NM... Probably could find one at a convention, slab it, and make $2000+ profit then I could bid more aggressively for Tim's books... http://www.comiclink.com/auctions/item.asp?back=%2FAuctions%2Fsearch%2Easp%3FFocusedOnly%3D1%26where%3Dauctions%26title%3Davengers%26ItemType%3DCB%23Item%5F761845&id=761845 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john72tex Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 I knew that PC 19 would go for crazy money since it's so hard to find in HG. I'm quite happy with my 9.0 which I only paid around $300. I did fill 2 holes in my JLA collection though: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the census, there are 21 copies in 9.0, 11 in 9.2, 7 in 9.4 and 3 in 9.6!! Can you imagine what prices for early SA DCs would be if the demand was the same as for Marvels??

Rick Rick, the JLA #62 is extremely difficult to find in high-grade...the last time I had checked the census there was only 1 copy in CGC 9.6 and 2 copies in CGC 9.4... I have a 9.4 and I think you have the other one...(if memory serves me right)... the 62 is scarcer than the 61 in high-grade...so I'd expect it to be worth more...

paperheart Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 The #61 was a pleasant surprise! Rick more like temporary insanity. a copy sold in november for $360. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john72tex Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 John that top and right edge of issue #11 just doesn't look right? Not quite sure what you mean. I will definitely examine the book when I receive it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I think he`s saying they look a little too clean and sharp and also appear to be slightly smaller than the dimensions of the pages. But perhaps he should have PM`d you with such a comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for your books Tim, I'm sad to report that I found out just last night that my BofA heloc account was reduced from $53,000 to $2,500... . Found out the hard way: tried to use the card for dinner last night with the wife...and was declined! No, that wasn't too embarrassing!!

If a JLA movie looks like it will ever get made (or speculators just think it will), look for lots more applicants into Miss Ratchets domicile!!

tth2 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 The 9.8 JLA #101 just went for 12X Guide. It was one of the better centered copies that I've seen, but still... My elitism may be showing, but no way I'm shelling out over 5 Bills for a post-1970 post-#100 book with a cut off DC logo & right edge thumb mark. Congrats to the winner; I'll use my $500 elsewhere. Rick Just saw that another 9.8 copy is in this week`s Heritage auction, with a Cert # that is one digit higher than the previous copy, indicating they were submitted together. Heritage has been selling off 9.8 copy after 9.8 copy of some BA DCs, most notably Actions, so I assume there was some discovery of a big batch of warehouse copies or something. I sure hope for the sake of the guy who paid $500 for the 9.8 JLA #101 that it wasn`t the first of 20 more 9.8 copies. Amazingly, this second 9.8 copy ALSO sold for $500 ($507.88 to be exact).
