Well, I was prepared to tell everyone that I had picked up a copy of Black Knight #3 CGC 4.0. This book was up for auction at Comic Connect. As I do with all auctions, I bid the maximum that I am willing to pay, and let the chips fall where they may. The auction ended last night, and I felt that my bid of $525 would hold up. No such luck. The book sold for $586!!! I thought my bid of $525 was excessive, but I really wanted this book. I had no idea that it would sell for that much.

Yep.  I was surprised at how much it cost too, but the #4 cost me much less ($345) so I'm happy overall with what I paid for the pair.  Sorry about that!  :foryou:

Lou, there is no need for you to apologize. We both wanted this book, but you were willing to pay more for it. When I bid, I bid the highest amount that I am willing to pay. I thought a bid of $525 would do the trick, but no such luck. I'll just keep my eye for another #3. I am also looking for BK #5.

Just out of curiosity, how many Black Knight (Atlas) issues do you have?

I have #1 (6.5), #3 (4.0), #4 (4.0), and #5 (7.0).  So I'm just down to #2 but might consider upgrading the #3 and the #4 if a good deal comes along.

Lou, if you decide to upgrade, I would be quite interested in issues #3 and #5. As I am sure you have noticed, these books don't come up for sale very often.

OK Joe, I will definitely keep that in mind.  Generally 7.0 has been my ceiling for all pre-hero books, so I'm unlikely to upgrade the #5.  But the #3 has your name on it if I can get to at least a 5.0.  (thumbsu
