Cap #2 on ebay

[atomised]

Is this book on fire this year or what? $7,350.00 seems steep for this book raw when HA sold a 4.0 a year ago for $5,378. That said fantastic book.

Price seems ok to me if no restoration. Dunno how much higher tho.

 

#2 is still a key Cap imo.

I'll stick my neck out and say this book will finish not much shy of $9k.

 

Also the top bidder is just asking to be punishment bid by someone with balls, because he's stacked up the three top tier bids.

Wouldn't surprise me....top-tier stuff seems to come along on eBay far less frequently these days, and its still the go-to buy site for many. I'm thinking it may benefit from a bit of a hungry dogs effect.

There's a Cap #3 auction on the 'Bay now too.

i was hoping this one would fly right under the radar (pretty low grade with slight trimming

but who couldn't use a second Cap 3!!)

Hey Illustrious, you found an awesome emoji! Looks like the famous exploding face cover on Tomb of Terror 15!

Cap 2 bidding $10,099 with just under 24 hours left.

Anyone here got the Cap 2 off CC?

[lemonman5]

Am I the only person who notices that GA stuff is getting out of hand in the auction world? It feels like all of the raw books that are being auctioned are getting ridiculous numbers, especially on eBay. I would be terrified to spend that much on a raw book on there.

 

This book is a perfect example. Its at over 10k, and it's not even graded and being sold by a person who doesn't have much experience selling comics. For all we know, there could be a page missing from the book.

It exceeded my prediction and there are at least 2 bidders in a war it seems. This could end up at a really inflated price.

Why such a price jump for Cap 2? Is it the only affordable alternative to 1 and 3?

At one point it was.

[Illustrious]

I understand #2's significance, but I just don't like the way Cap (especially his face) is drawn on the cover. That kind of turned me off from wanting one. It's just bookended by two spectacular covers so it looks inferior in comparison IMO.

It ended at $13,433. Bloody hell.

Rolling the dice it presses to what...a 7.0? Seems aggressive.

[Johnny545]

Pretty sure there was a 6.5 on eBay all last year that sat unsold with a best offer option and a buy it now of 12k or so.

Rolling the dice it presses to what...a 7.0? Seems aggressive.

it's not even close to a 7.0 without a press. Too much spine wear and the lower corners of the pages on the BC view appear stained. I'd say it's a 4.5 tops as the pics show and am surprised it went over $10k.

Probably if you send it to PGX.

 

Highly doubt it would receive anything even close to a 4.5 grade without some additional work on it, considering how much tougher CGC seems to be grading their books during the past few months.
