(Nearly) Complete CGC 9.8 Pre-Unity & Variants for sale

Post by ZephyrWasHOT!! »

Hola! So, I have a nearly complete pre-Unity and variants set for sale. I'm listing them here first, and whatever doesn't sell will be listed on eBay...at higher prices, of course ;) If you see anything, and you'd like to make me an offer, feel free! I'm pretty negotiable. A lot of this set could be used to make up the #1 Registry set (sorry, Rico! ;) )

Shipping will be free, via USPS Priority Boxed. Payment through Paypal.

Onward and upwards!

Archer & Armstrong #0 - $200 SOLD!

Image

#0 Gold (one of only 5 9.8 SS copies) - $1200

Image

#1 (one of only 5) - $200

Image

#2 (one of only 4) - $200

Image

Armorines #0 Gold (1 of 4) - $300

Image

And that's the "A's" ...took a little bit longer than I expected; had to resize all of them. Anyways...on to the B's!

No C's, now the D's...

(any scuffs you see on the gold foils is on the inner well, NOT the books. The metal "foil" they used reflects very badly.)

Deathmate Preview Comic Defense Version (this is apparently the only 9.8 Sig Series, so I have to ask a dumb price) - $300

Image

Deathmate Preview Advance Comics (1 of 4) - $150

Image

Deathmate Prologue Gold (1 of 5) - $250

Image

Deathmate Black Gold - $400

Image

Deathmate Blue Gold (1 of 5) - $250

Image

Deathmate Yellow Gold (1 of 4) - $250

Image

Deathmate Epilogue Gold (1 of 2) - $350 SOLD!

Image

Second Life of Doctor Mirage #1 Gold (1 of 4) - $300

(yeah, I know they've sold cheap on eBay last year; if I'd known, I would have bought 'em.)

Eternal Warrior #1 (1 of 15! Can you believe it??) - $225

Image

Eternal Warrior #1 Flat Gold ('Gold Variant Cover') - $1300
(This is, by far, the rarest gold book of any kind in 9.8. Only 36 blues and 8 ss copies. It is brutally difficult in 9.8!)

Image

Eternal Warrior #2 (1 of 6...why aren't people getting these SS'd?) - $200

Image

Eternal Warrior #4 (first appearance of you-know-who) - $450

H!

Harbinger #0 Pink - $200

Image

Harbinger #0 Blue - $700
(this is probably the rarest "pre-Unity" that exists. This book, because it was heat sealed with the trade and damaged, is very, very hard to find in 9.8. In fact, this is the sole and only 9.8 SS that currently exists...and those registry points add up)

Image

Harbinger #1 9.4 - $275

Image

Harbinger #1 9.6 - $525

Image

Harbinger #1 9.8 - $1700
(Yeah, seems spendy, but there are only 26 of these, and if Harby gets any sort of media exposure...these prices will look cheap)

Image

Harbinger #2 - $250

Image

Harbinger #3 9.4 - $100

Image

Harbinger #4 (lowest printed Harby of all) - $250

Image

Harbinger #5 (1 of 3!) - $400 SOLD!

Image

Harbinger #6 (1 of 2!) - $600

Image

Harbinger #7 - $200 SOLD!

Image

Harbinger #8 (1 of 6; I have 5) - $550

Image

Harbinger #9 (1 of 3) - $250

Image

Harbinger #10 - $200

Image

H.A.R.D. Corps #1 Gold - $250

I'm still amazed at how relatively cheap these are. Yeah, ok, a couple hundred bucks each, but people pay $1500 for signed 9.8 NYX #3s an $1000 for New Mutants #98s.

What a shame. These books are absolute classics, but get very little respect. Ah well.

Onward!

And there you have it! A nearly complete Pre-Unity and Unity Sig Series 9.8 set, missing only:

Harbinger #3
Magnus #15
Solar #10
Shadowman #4
Eternal Warrior #1 Gold Embossed

This set would essentially seal the deal for the top Registry set, barring some stray 9.9s. You'd only need the aforementioned Solar #10 in 9.8 (no easy feat!) and Harbinger #3, plus Vintage Magnus #1-4, and you'd own that registry set forever, because of the bonus that SS carries. And...as exciting as it might be to imagine, there will be functionally no new 9.9s showing up any time soon.

They're priced as fairly as I could price them. If they make it to eBay, they will be, in every single case, priced higher than here, higher than the 10% fee would account for. Most of these books are the only examples of these books to exist, with very little sales history (or old sales history), and the folks on eBay will eat this stuff up, I imagine. There's already been some lunatic sales in the last couple of weeks...EW #4 for $500+, X-O #1 $500, Rai #0 Glossy for $750??

Crazy town. But...granted, I'm a bit biased...but if Bloodshot works out, and the VCU becomes a thing...these prices will look like giveaways. Big IF, I know...but, again...look at the prices for Amazing #300 and the like, and that book has 10-20-100 or MORE the number of copies on the census as most of these books do, or EVER WILL.

Alright. Enough of the hard sell. If you're interested, let me know, make me an offer, whatever. I'll leave these up to the end of March, and then they're going on eBay.

Thanks for looking!
