Journey Into Mystery #83 Club 18 18

[SC22]

The JIM 83 CGC 6.0 sold tonight at ComiConnect for 7100$ but has that front damage that is not very appealing at all.

I see what you're saying.

Reminds me of my copy; a "good". Obviously prettier overall than mine.

That damage on the front is way too distracting in my opinion, for a copy that is graded as FN. I would expect a much higher price for a better presenting 6.0 (or one that had the same damage on the BC) and / or one with a better PQ.

that 6.0 is kind of a tragic book-- the rest of it is so clean, it looks like an 8 at least. i thought about bidding but that crunch just held me back. i'm trying to upgrade my 4.0...

Rejoining the clubs today due to the PB situation.

Acquired in the late 80s in a dizzying trade.

Good looking raw book. Congrats.  

8.0 looks very clean.  I wouldn't pay $25k for it.  There was a 8.5 for sale on eBay for $23,000 with white pages I was negotiating with for a lower price and they then supposedly sold it.  Hasn't popped up anywhere.  I would pay no more than $20k for this book.

Nice copy for sure, but the 7.0 listed right near it appears to have much better cover colors.

Thanks and agree. Was on the fence in pulling the trigger but I'll wait for another.

Really ? Is that the going price for an 8.5 ? I would think it would be higher, maybe 30K.

That would be my preferred grade.

Considering some SA books. Thor, X-men and Avengers would be top of the list.

Where is an 8.5 on eBay for 23,000? That would be a steal!

If someone bought an 8.5 for $23K then they got a steal.
