Ok kiddies. Who wants To keep me from listing this on eBay tomorrow. I expressed an XO 1 1:500 brushed metal variant through Cgc today and got a 9.8. It will be in my hands tomorrow. Keep me from listing on eBay and buy it now for $1500 OBO shipped. Yes I'm serious.

Help me to understand the mechanics of this. The book came out on Wednesday and it is already at CGC and graded? How does that happen so quickly? Congrats to you by the way! :thumb:

I'm looking forward to sending mine off too, but I don't know about the express shipping and grading, although the price doesn't look too steep...

Has no one made an offer on this book? Is this a case where everyone is afraid to make an offer for fear of (1) offending chainnball, or (2) offering too much for the book, since we don't know the market price?

I'm not making an offer, because I can't offer something that would fall in the "fair value" category.

Good luck with sale :hope: I would think at least half of these will be 9.8 considering the care taken. At current unestablished price point, my complete guess would be around $800 on ebay :? . Will be interesting to see if some big fish are interested, then it could go higher. I'll put a bid just so I can say I did. Will have a watch on it.

I hope it goes for close to your asking price so you can stick up the *SQUEE* of those questioning your asking price on the Valiant Buy/Sell FB page.

I'm excited, as I think we all are, because we own one that will more than likely be shipped to CGC soon

Sold for just under $1,450 (if you include shipping).

Nice way to set the bar!
