For a comic you find in a dollar bin with a cover that someone wrote on? Yeah, that price sounds about right :D

So you're saying that I didn't over-pay but I also didn't get it at a steal?

I looked on some of the sites that you guys have posted links to and could find no current market value for this book.

Anyone up to posting a Dead Universe price guide here in the DU section?

I have not seen one sell for that price in a LONG time (and I've only seen 1 sell for that price at all). You got a GREAT deal!

Thanks slym :thumb:

Still 50% off isn't a great deal but still not bad.

Why? To go back to '93 when shop owners were selling them for $300.

Good price. That's what I paid for my first one on an off-ebay sale.

On Ebay they go for about $40 if they are listed correctly. It seems that one pops up every month or two. It just depends on who's looking at the time.

Nope, I'd go back to the time of the crash and scoop up even more Valiants for little of nothing. Plus, while I'm at it I may as well go back and get in on the beginnings of DC and Marvel.
