Any type of restoration work on your copy here since it just looks so beautiful in all its colorful glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My prediction is that as the price for unrestored copies of these HTF in-demand GA books goes past the budgets of most collectors, even the non-extensive restored copies will end up experiencing significant demand and increased prices in the marketplace. Similar to how low grade copies of these books were not highly priced a few years ago, but are now highly sought after and highly priced as entry level copies in today's marketplace.

What's a rough estimation for an unrestored entry level tec 29,31, 33, 35. Gpa data pretty limited Edited April 22, 2017 by Spiderturtle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I've always felt that the more detailed cover 'Tec 29 was under appreciated relative to the more classic poster like image for 'Tec 31. In order to finish this little pre-Robin survey here, what would your price per point estimates be for Detectives 36, 37, and 38? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to finish this little pre-Robin survey here, what would your price per point estimates be for Detectives 36, 37, and 38? Yes the 29 has jumped up a lot. It is a lot rarer 58 vs 87 and I think people realized it was undervalued compared to the other issues. There have been a lot more 31's selling so we have seen the increase in price, once the 29's came out and started selling we saw the same jump. I know there are two restored copies that need to be removed from the census so really there are only 56. Who know how many have been cracked for the other holder as well so the population is off I am sure. James G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lou_fine Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Any guesses as to where this CGC 3.5 copy of 'Tec 35 is going to end up at in the CC auction: http://www.comicconnect.com/bookDetail.php?id=700356 Just wondering since this appears to be the only nice looking pre-Robin 'Tec book in the entire auction, besides the much less in demand 'Tec 30 with no Bats on the cover. This copy here seems to be pretty well stuck at $30K for the past couple of weeks. Doesn't really mean anything though since the last 2 nice looking pre-Robin 'Tec's pretty much doubled in price in the last day of the auction.
