Raining Superman #1's on ebay

[G.A.tor]

hello all...

a few months ago, I remember us commenting on that fact that there were 4 or 5 restored Batman #1's on ebay at one time...well, this week, it is Superman!...

there are 2 restored copies (one being sold by our very own filter81!), a really low graded from a dude in germany, and Perry has his 1-108 set back up (offered to sell it last year for $100K, this year it is at $150K...nice)

Supes 1-108

Filter81 Supes 1

Problem with "ext" restored designation Supes 1

I washed my dishes with Supes 1

This one's in Germany...is it that scammer that keeps popping up under different accounts? Auction style & photo quality certainly look familiar...

And then mopped the floors.

Looking into my crystal ball...

 

 

This isn't the last Superman #1 Filter will sell

I don't get how its only a 3.0? If it were unrestored and looked like that I'd be pissed at that grade. I always thought it was graded as is and then give the restored notes etc.

Some excellent comedy courtesy of the extensively restored supes 1 auction:

 

SELLER SAYS:

CGC notes, "restoration includes: color touch, pieces added, tear seals, cover cleaned, reinforced and 1/2 front cover is a color copy"

 

Overstreet 2006 VG 4.0 value $36,500; FN 6.0 $54,750

 

Therefore placing a 5.0 at $45,625 but that is for an unrestored copy--most pros would subtract 30% for slight restoration, 40% on moderate and 50% for extensive suggesting a fair price of $22,812.50 for this copy.

In the good old days it was.

So if a G/VG 3.0 with extensive (P) sells for $17K, how much do you think a copy in the same grade with slight resto will sell for? Think it might go for 23 - 25?

true, but what is strange, is the last few supes sold, had previously been on ebay, not moved at all, adam got them and "boom" ...sold! but B, I am sure you can work some magic too!

looks like a Famous First Edition copy to me.

Perhaps the first 1 million dallar comic will be a restored Superman 1 in VF ?

Filter's 3.0 sold? Jesus, maybe what I thought was "comedy" is just fair market value Yeeps.
