ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

I feel like three years from now any of the titles could be leading the way with the most talented artists and writers in the industry. But my money's on Harbinger, the favorite at 6-5.
I have no idea who's responsible for all this yet. I haven't investigated anything about the return of valiant ...

'08 was a good time to sell huh. I would have loved to buy it for around $8-900. I'm sure we won't see another chance to buy it for quite some time so $1300 was probably a pretty good price.

looks like $1300 took home the bloodshot. Hope it was one of you guys.

so about 12 hrs left and still under $700

Yours? LOL somehow I knew someone would ask me that. No I have no personal interest in the comic except I wish that I could buy it. I do most of my buying later in the year when the $$$ rolls in. Anyway it's pretty rare that one comes up for sale so I thought that I would clue you guys in on it. I ...

For any and all interested there is a copy for sale at comiclink with 9 days to go and it's currently at $644

That does make sense, and well Wolverine is essentially the most popular Marvel character behind Spiderman so I think it's a book that will just *SQUEE* the bed as people will always want to buy it. So it's been on the market for a month now and they've received an offer for $92,000 for the Hulk ...

I think some of the problem have with CGC is that they exponentially raised the price of certain books. In 1998/1999 you could have a Hulk 181 NM for what under $500. When CGC hit the scene, now the book becomes $2000+ depending on page qaulity, centering, coloring, etc. I have a personal theory ...

For the record, I'm am much bigger fan of raw copies from sellers I trust. I have no true desire to own CGC copies but I also have no qualms buying them if another opportunity doesn't present itself. And that's a fine way to approach things now. I know a local dealer that's a very strict grader and ...

Anyway not sure how much you know about this guy but is he the one that use to run those phone auctions in CBG back in the early-mid 90's?

He's "Fantasia" (or "Fantazia") comics by mail if you check old 1980s-1990s comic ads (and old Overstreets).

He's been ripping people off forever. He's ...

1) - pressing is resto
2) - CGC books in 9.6 grade usually go for about what raw does in most cases. Below that grade level, you can get great deals (like my early 120s Uncanny X-Men that raw in "NM" would have sold for $35-40, I got in CGC 9.2 for $17 - shipped.) Only the 9.8s and above sell for a ...

I can't help but feel the possibility that CGC has hurt the hobby. I think that instead of spending money on books and helping the comic shops, comic collectors are now spending money on a 'guarantee'. A guarantee that a certain comic is of a certain quality. Though that guarantee can, at times, be ...

I think it's a great service when you actually want the book in the grade you pay for. When I look at raw Bronze/Silver books I purchased from ebay, I can honestly say none of them were accurately graded. I feel your pain. I think cgc does a fantastic job giving the medium an overall normalcy ...

Finally coming to terms with my slabbing frustrations. It took some pm's from folks who shared my anger towards the snobbery of grading to help me get centered about the issue.

The majority of the grading snobs focus on modern tier comics, which through slabbing provides them inflated value. A 9.8 ...

I can arrange that. :P Only joking Greg, but actually that's not a half bad idea. I wonder ...

I suppose if more and more keep showing up for sale that might be the case, but I would be surprised to see them selling for that anytime soon.

I hope you're right though, I might even break down and buy one for that.... What would you say is a good price for a Harbinger #0 in a CGC 9.8? Pink ...

IMO Harby #1 CGC'd 9.8 will settle at around 200 bucks if the trend of new 9.8s keep popping up. I agree, and that will absolutely happen. For sure there are many more out there than what is graded to date. A friend of mine has four. All perfect copies!! At least three of them will grade out at 9.8 ...

Now that I could handle......maybe I'd buy two 8-)

All the old school keys that used to be mad in 9.8 are all available cheaper now, well nearly all of them.
I mean by keys, Magnus 12, Unity red, Harby pink etc etc.

:thumb: Yeah I'll just have to pick them up as I go. I still need many more 9.8 ...
