From the collection of Elvis Presley I would have to own at least 1

@woowoo show me some of those image editing skills you got and post a pic of a nice bonfire of Ultimate Spiderman 4 please make it a BIG bonfire

Tec 43 cover

and just where will these AF15s be thrown ? I'd like to pick up a few copies, not to keep of course.

People who don't own a copy are likely willing to pay stronger for an entry level copy, or one with minimal eye appeal. People who already own copies in higher grade likely do not participate in bidding anymore, either they are happy with what they have or cannot afford the higher grades or don't want to. And as @lou_fine mentioned, there are multiple copies at every single auction, all the time. At one point, the buying pool thins out and you are left mostly with dealers re-building stocks or the occasional attempt at an upgrade.

wow ! 126k for the copy of Action 1 (wasnt even aware there was an additional 15% BP) wonder if they also used those small fragments or the dot ComicConnect auctioned off some time ago gives a whole new meaning to frankenbook

sorry to say, but it is a far more superior copy than yours so expect a strong result

then bid it up to 6 figs and take it home

With all due respect to Stan Lee, he would have signed an Action1 if they laid one in front of him.

terrific copy !

let's see more preRobins that didn't belong to me

on ComicLink, it didn't last long.

I’m starting to second guess my initial thoughts of $150K-$200K. Now I’m thinking around $125K. I’d be astonished if it didn’t break $100K. it won't break 6 figs

the last 2 posts were both my throwaways

Won in the Jon Berk auction... no ct or pcs added

Almost makes you wonder if this is a frantic mad rush for the exit doors after seeing what's been taking place in the more recent SA to CA marketplaces. Seems to me to be a typical Heritage featured auction, I can't even recall when they EVER had a mundane featured auction

great looking book

leading the pack, with no surprise

isn't there is a close relationship between QES and CC just like there is one with CVA and HA ? has anyone actually seen the CC copy in person to confirm the bright(er) colors or not ?

scan enhancements or just the way the scanner produces the image ? even the CGC label seems more vivid we've seen time and again, even here on the boards, sellers changing scanners as the end result is not reflective of reality.
