In my opinion, if ever there was a book to hold long-term, it's this one. (Of course, I like the first Silk, also.) You have two copies of the incentive variant? If they are high grade, those are particularlly special books. They seem tough in stict NM. I would research what they've been selling for, but I would definitely make sure you get bank for those.depluto wrote:I have a couple of sets of all four covers for UF 4 ... should I sell or hold? And what price if I were to sell?StarBrand wrote:A seller made two copies of Ultimate Fallout 4 available at 17.99 ea with 3.99 shipping less than 24 hours ago. One of the two has already sold. This book is really heating up.
No way I'd even think of selling a NM copy of the incentive variant for less than $100. A VFNM copy is very attractive too.

Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Comics Of Any Era
Keep us updated if that changes ... all we have to go on is eBay sales and they are definitely picking up.
Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Comics Of Any Era
A first and second print today sold for 29.99. That's really off the hook. I couldn't sell a set like that for 4.99 a year ago.

Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Comics Of Any Era
It took this seller between October 27th and January 11th to sell 6 copies of Ultimate Fallout #4 first print at 3.99 each. This is not an anomaly. This was a 3.99 book about a month ago.

7 copies closed at 29.01 on January 21st... a little over 4.00 each. Now this books is getting an easy $15-18 bucks on eBay. It's been surging just in the last 4 weeks.

Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Comics Of Any Era
It's been surging wildly on eBay over the last 4 weeks. It's at least tripled in price over that time. At some point I would think conventions and stores would catch up with that.Elveen wrote:I'm just adding info and not disagreeing or throwin gas, but in all the shows I do, which is a lot...

I've seen a definite run on Amazing Spider-Man Vol 3 #4 in the last 48 hours. The only thing I can think of that may have spurred the run is Silk #1 being on the order form for February. There could very well be a different explanation. Sales on eBay yesterday of this issue include:

I don't know why I never noticed this before but Iron Man 304 and 305 go for as much as $50 for the pair. Hulkbuster armor.

Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Comics Of Any Era
Very few Iron Man books get any kind of heat. I guess 281 and 282 do OK with War Machine. First appearance of Rhodey (118) seems like it should be worth a bit more (you can get a decent copy for under $15).
That stupid alcoholism issue still gets $40-50 for some reason, despite having a storyline where Tony quits drinking cold turkey like some heroin junkie.

I'm hoping this book takes off. I was able to get a ASM #4 variant this weekend.

Ugh. Should have bought #4 when you guys were going on about it.
I'm going to see about getting all of the Vol. 3 stuff from someone on CGC boards, though. I'll keep you updated on how much I get away with.

In related news, though, it looks like one can obtain all of Superior Spider-man in NM/NM- for less than cover.
I may just wait for ASM #4 to inevitably cool off and just get the rest now.

Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Comics Of Any Era
ASM 4 may cool off, but I think it's a long-term play. It may cool off at $20-30 or higher, too. Thanks for the congrats, Big E. It just blew me away that a brand new character emerged in the Spider-Man mythos that was bitten by the same spider that bit Peter. When I heard that I reacted strongly. Even started a thread about it. Lol
