Yeah, but lots of bid retractions though. Maybe that's just his winning strategy.

Exactly.

Not only that, if you add up the items he (supposedly) bought from this same seller, he's dropped $4413.40 in a little over a month.

Really?

Not sayin' that's "impossible" or anything, but that's a lotta' cheddar to be droppin' all in one place on only a few slabs in a relatively short period of time.

Homey musta' sold a LOT of sea monkeys early on to come up with that many Benji's :hm: ...

Good call, didn't think to do that. I saw he had bought (and sold) some high ticket stuff.

I like the looks of that one. The other one has a staple I don't like.

I sniped it, but not high enough. It got a little too rich for my blood.

I hear ya', Doc; I hear ya'.

I gave it a snipe, as well, but once it got outta' the "sweetlous range", it was just a tad more cheeze than I was willin' ta' spread.

Does the top right corner of that book look like it has a bindery chip to anyone else?

I hate getting 9.8s with those. I know it's a printing defect so the grade isn't affected, but still. A pet peeve for sure.

Well demand is officially high for Valiant titles. The hype is on.

Although I question whether this is an actual purchase.

http://cgi.ebay.com/HARBINGER-1-CGC-9-8 ... 680wt_1396

Highest price to beat is $2550 in 2008. Will it happen?

Looks like a good sale at $800. I will track the feedback to see if buyer and/or seller leave feedback for each other.

Hit $2,550 again? I doubt that will happen within the next 5 years.

ZWH's Solar 10 in CGC 9.8 went for over 300.00 a few weeks back, and 800.00 seems to be in line with that sale.

Re: Harbinger #1 CGC 9.8s on eBay (past and current auctions

Post by dwald385 »

Hi, first time posting. I just bought the Harbinger 1 cgc 9.8 for $509.00 on ebay. It has 3 staples and you can see them apposed them being directly on the spine. I called CGC and they said printing defects were common with early valiants and if cgc gives it a 9.8 then it is a 9.8 I am a picky collector and I guess it is bothering me a bit but not sure I could get another one at that price. I was wondering if anyone has an opinion about the matter!!! Thank you very much!!!
