Did you note that there are multiples on some of the books? There's 3 copies of Rai #1 and 2 copies each of Magnus #8 and #9, along with Rai #2, Magnus #2 and 3 copies of Rai #0. I still think it's overpriced, even with all that, though.

You would figure the 18 bucks shipping would be enough to scare the bidders away.

I would think so. But I guess not.

Auctions like this just show me that Valiant back issue prices are on the way up. No doubt.

Solar 6 is such a rustic book. The backdrop is topical to the theme.

Wait, didn't he go to the moon?

nice use of keyword spamming here, uses the term "Bloodshot platinum error" even though the item offered is neither Bloodshot NOR platinum and the only error would be someone paying a lot for this.
