That is 30,000% more than the last one of these I picked up.

I would have made an offer of $0.50 for it, but he might take it, and I would have to pay the $5 for shipping.

Ayup. It's a shame to see people throw good money away like that, but I suppose they have lots to waste.

So is $25 a reasonable price to pay for Gold books? I am trying to finish up my run and this is about what I think I am willing to pay. I am wondering at this point if it is just wishful thinking?

Should be for most of them. I got the 8 or so I have for way under that. I think the only one you may have to shell out more for is Turok, X-O (both books), and possibly A&A right now. Other than that, if you look hard enough, you should be able to get most of the others for $10-25.

I am working on it right now, cleared out the Unity Ps and Gs out of the BIN on ebay the other day, since people weren't paying attention to the BIN. Anyways got about five or six gold books total all for less than $20. Hoping to trade some off later.

The Turok gold used to be a 10 dollar book is that starting to change now?

$7.77 opening bid for a Psi-Lords #1. I can't say as I can blame this individual for trying - these days Valiant comics are worth what you can get for them.

This part is funny, though.
