Valiant Nintendo books all CGC

Post by lobo »

Friendly heads up that I put up for sale a few dozen Valiant Nintendo books fresh from CGC on my eBay store:
https://www.ebay.ca/sch/canadashipper/m ... ksid=p3692

Probably the best selection on eBAY ATM. Note prices are CDN $$$

I had close to 70 of these books graded so I have multiples of some books in particular grades. I don't take offers on eBay but I will haggle offline with VF boardees.... if I like you enough. :thumb:

Send me PMs for more detail.

Good luck with the sale. I'll be watching it with keen interest.

I have half the Valiant Nintendo books in CGC 9.8 but at current prices I'll never finish as I was mostly putting it together as part of trying to have all Valiant books in CGC 9.8 as opposed to having a massive love of Nintendo (although I do find the books neat). I guess I'll have to decide if I want to hold what I have or since it is now project that would cost beyond what I think Nintendo books are worth to me whether to sell. Your sales will help me determine that.

Yeah, I'm also keeping one of each book I had graded with some 9.8s but I have no intention to complete the set or really care for the Nintendo comic genre at all. I only really hoarded these previously because they were early Valiants.

I did sell and ship off this book yesterday:

3000 USD! That’s nuts! I just can’t believe where these books went during COVID.

My kids won't let me sell mine. They love them. Weren't interested in any of my other stuff, but those...

My arguments that they are currently worth something close to what I sold the entirety of my VH1 collection for fall on deaf ears. "Tough." I'm like "It's a semester of college!" - "Deal with it". :roll:

OK, maybe I love them too. :D

Yeah, I still have another copy in 9.8 and I'm thinking "Why am I bothering to hold on at these prices?"

AGREED! I think this might be the time to sell.

If we all sell our Nintendo books at the same time we will tank the market.

I'm not so sure. I think demand so far outstrips supply more being available might make things worse. None of us have THAT many already graded of any one book.

If we're talking about CGC graded books - the demand probably does beat supply.
There are only about 1,300 CGC graded Valiant Nintendo books at this point, combined for all titles and issue numbers.

Meanwhile, there are 3,700 CGC graded copies of "Something Is Killing The Children #1 Eighth Printing" from Boom Studios (April 2021).
Seems like the demand for 30 year old Nintendo books should be a lot more than 35% of a one year old book eighth printing.
