Aweandlorder Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 20 hours ago, AnthonyTheAbyss said: Why did it sell for +$200 The negative UPC isn't rare. And don't say because it's in 9.8 condition. The moment the movie is official a bunch is going to flood the market. If Spiderman #1 (poly bag) is plentiful in 9.8 condition there's no reason the same can't be said for this book. ***Full disclosure...I placed a bid on it for $158.01 and the winning bid was nearly the same as another "buy it now" auction Wait just a second. You bid 158.01 and you believe that its not worth 200? Apparently some people here still think its a common book to have in 9.8, so Im actually shocked that you went as high as 150.00 if that is indeed the case What am i missing here?

But even considering that, there are tens of thousands of 9.8 copies to be had even taking a conservative estimate based on how many copies are out there. It would just be more work to wade through them all, and presumably higher cost if people are buying them raw and still bagged. So did @AnthonyTheAbyss Are you suggesting he was was duped by us?

I don't mind overpaying for something that I want...but there's also a limit to high I'm willing to go. I just think $200+ is way over priced. I honestly thought my bid price was going to win it. I like collecting odd UPC/bar code issues so I pay premiums on most of those books (yes, I'm one of those newsstand collectors).

What a freakin' huckster! "Not many of these around" Now that is some prime, Grade A wildly_fanciful_statement. Definitely think the sales pitch helped on this one. And the claim that it's 9.8 in the bag, for one it's unlikely, and for two, it's impossible to tell. Someone got hosed. divad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aweandlorder Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Opinions opinions opinions I, for one, actually think that the (sucker) that bought it saved his searches (like I do) for "X-Force 1 9.8" and fell for the trap But lets wait and see how this trend develops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
