Irredeemable Ant-Man 10 seems hard to find. It's a late issue in the run, and a World War Hulk crossover. This seller sold 3 copies, at least 2 of them sold at 15.00. Can't tell from this listing if the third went for the same price. One single copy on eBay for 12.99 obo.

About three years ago, I passed up about 20 copies of WD #19 in a quarter bin at the Comic Swap in State College :(. They had a red marker going through the top of the book, so I dont feel as bad about it now....

Just goes to show you the comparative size of eBay. For the purposes of this thread, I somehow am not certain this copy wipes away the sales at 15 a pop on the Bay, or the fact only one copy is there for 12.99 OBO. I don't think the availability of this issue at 2.99 is likely to affect the copy available on eBay. That's a much larger market. I don't recall comic collector live trading on the NASDAQ, for example, and don't expect to see it there any time soon.

I am just saying buyers need to educate themselves on other options - I have seen things go on Ebay that I paid almost 50-60% less on this site - some people just go to Ebay and that's it. Good for the seller, but for this site I show options and there are better - never had a bad experience on that site or Atomic Avenue.

Dude, you are not kidding, seem some completed sales at over £20 here, madness indeed, so glad we have a copy of the 1st print to go up and 3 copies of the weekly edition too.

I was able to snag a few TWD weekly 19s the last week or two. The next one to watch will be Weekly #27. It may take until next year when the show is back on, but it's likely to spike as well.

There are a few others from the regular series I'm keeping an eye on as well.

Agreed. I had borrowed a set of The Walking Dead tpbs to read several months ago and have been looking to pick up my own set. Amazon has them for about $8.50 each (for a total of $127.50 shipped), but most lots on eBay are going over $200 for all 15. WTF?! Granted, some may be 1st print tpb sets, I didn't look that close, but that's the only reason I can conceive. Or laziness.
