Visitor #1 is a News stand edition. Anyone want to take a chance to see if the VALIANT vs the Visitors are News stand editions?
How much do the newstand editions usually go for?
Valiant vs the Visitior newstands go for $25 (Gregs guide)

Any other newsstands (not including The Destroyer) would be double guide value. IMO :thumb:

'Bid with convidence' Your eBay feedback looks like your a bad seller, am I wrong? I don't have a bit of convidence, thats just IMO. I have a few negatives myself, but I can explain them (fairly easy, no long winded excuses) and I've been on eBay since 1999 with over 600 transactions.

Sorry but...YOU HAVE TO BE JOKING...RIGHT?????? :o

I can't explain that... it has to be the TPB. I sold my set of 1-6 regular issues for less than cover.

akkk, I just passed on two copies of this today in NM- for $7.50 each (because I already have a copy). Should have bought those suckers and flipped them. This Venom hype is insane. :o

Yeah, a friend of mine flipped two #316's for $200+ each (9.8's) last month.
Selling an ASM #316 for $200 is sweet but paying $200 for that book is f@cking nuts...not to mention a little bit sad.

I might pay a good price for the Rai's since they look pretty nice. Only if the guy promised me that I could get my money back if they didn't grade a 9.8 though..

The X-O's are a joke...I got my X-O 1-10 for $10! Why waste $50 on it..thats just a waste of money

This guy has several TPBs up for sale

They all seem a little over-ambitious. Although the Invasion TPB seems to keep climbing in price.

yep, pass at those prices. The common trades shouldn't cost you more than a buck or two. The other ones are sky high, too.

There are some Trade Paperbacks recently that have been outselling, in price, the regular single issue comics. Low print run, no reissue of the TPB and a couple frenzied collectors trying to complete their run.

I just sold my Vol 2 of X-Treme X-Men on Amazon for $ 44.99, I think the original price was $19.99

I have started a pretty extensive list of rare trades with sale prices over on Lyra.

It has averaged about $30.00 to $100.00 in actual sales.

It's weird but true.

Some insane person listed one a $1000.00 one time but that didn't fly.
