W BP, $13k, $13k and $11k, roughly.

by contrast, I snagged a great tec 29 page with Batman in action in almost every panel for $500. It was page 2, I think

 I was thinking 12-20k  

But... Missing borders?? They looked super trimmed compared to The recent AC1 Page 5 Cover swipe at 28.5k 

So with more borders and less trimming would have done a bit better. But these are an outlier. The first time the Ac1 pages sold they were much lower. Ac1 page 5 sold for 16k 2016 and a off white one sold for 28.5k  2019

 

Still very solid showing for Tec 27 Batman Holy Grail pages in a tough auction and stock market correction.

 

Gorgeous TEC 29 Page!! A steal

No, I stated their bid price at the time of my post. I also stated 1 d left of bidding.

Oh because the guy asked if they would hammer at $11K or so and you said not even close, try half. So seemed like you were implying what they would finish at. My bad.

As per recent trends from the past couple of years, it clearly looks like the Frazetta Famous Funnies issues are really starting to differentiate in prices:  hm

https://comics.ha.com/itm/golden-age-1938-1955-/science-fiction/famous-funnies-214-eastern-color-1954-cgc-nm-92-cream-to-off-white-pages/a/7224-92040.s?ic16=ViewItem-Inventory-BuyNowFromOwner-JumpLot-081514

Golden Age (1938-1955):Science Fiction, Famous Funnies #214 (Eastern Color, 1954) CGC NM- 9.2 Cream to off-white pages....

As clearly evident by the fact that this absolutely gorgeous and eye-popping red moon cover :luhv: went for $7,800 while the 9.2 Famous Funnies 210 went for only $2,640 and the 9.0 Famous Funnies 215 sold for $5,520.  It would also appear that these prices had a lot to do with availablity in grade as both othe FF 214 and FF 215 shared in being the current highest graded copies while the FF 210 had an additional 14 copies in higher grade.  (thumbsu

It's all about availability in grade and the cover.

210 is one of the most common issues in high grade, and its cover is not one of Frazetta's better ones in this run.  214 on the other hand is impossible to find in high grade, as evidenced by the fact that this 9.2 copy is at the top of the census, and is one of the best, if not the best, covers in the run.

It sure looks that way.............maybe the owner doesn't realize the JLA 21 just sold for $32,400 and the hopeful buyer is trying to pull a fast one over the owner.  :takeit: , the money, that is!!!  :flipbait:

Looks like the owner has a CGC label collector by the short hairs and I think he should definitely squeeze him as hard as he can and go for $30K+ on each of those highest graded books.  :screwy:

When I clicked onto these 2 links that you had posted here, the first thing that came to my mind was this book here and thinking that Anthony Chiofalo must have gotten out of the clinker early and back working with the Tandano Corporation once again:

https://comics.ha.com/itm/golden-age-1938-1955-/all-star-comics-3-billy-wright-pedigree-dc-1940-cgc-vf-85-off-white-to-white-pages/a/7054-91043.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515

Golden Age (1938-1955):Superhero, All Star Comics #3 Billy Wright pedigree (DC, 1940) CGC VF+ 8.5 Off-white to white pages....

Still remember this Billy Wright copy being auctioned off for $49K plus change and then the buyer flipping it off to Chiofalo for a mere $200K through the HA Make Offer To Owner Feature in only a week after the auction had closed.  Took a closer look at the 2 JLA listing and figured it couldn't be good old Tony at work again because he would never be that patient enough to wait 9 and 7 years respectively after the auctions had closed to make his purchases.  :taptaptap:  :taptaptap:  lol

Any bets that the winner of these 3 Frazetta Famous Funnies (i.e. FF 213 - FF215) just might be the same bidder and you have simply punsihed bid them and made them pay through the nose for these copies here. hm  :slapfight:

Especially with respect to this 7.5 graded copy of Famous Funnies 213 at the take home price of $9,600; especially considdring there are 9 copies graded higher.  :whatthe:

You might have just lucked out here since this possible outlier of a price just might draw more copies of this classic Frazetta cover book out into the marketplace and if you are patient enough, you just might hopefully be able to pick up an even nicer copy at a lower price point.  :taptaptap:  :wishluck:

They are not the same bidder. The person that won the 215 did not bid on the 214.

Hey Richard;

Congrats on being able to win this CGC highest graded copy of Famous Funnies 215. :applause:  :baiting:

Are you now thinking of taking your copy of Famous Funnies 214 and trying to bump it up to become the single highest graded copy which should then pushed it into the 5-figure territory rather easily?  hm  :bigsmile:

I need to check which highest grade JLAs I still own!

I thought these 2 JLA's were surely copies already owned by you and you just hit the jackpot.  :flipbait:

Did you forget to turn your "Make Crazy Offer to Owner" button on in your Heritage account?   doh!  lol

Not sure about previous past sales, but I thought the restored Cap 3 seems to continue to motor along at something like 3.5X condition guide for a RESTORED copy: :applause:

Golden Age (1938-1955):Superhero, Captain America Comics #3 (Timely, 1941) CGC Apparent VG 4.0 Slight (C-1) Cream to off-white pages....

The work on this seems easily removable so I could see the price reflecting that and this being in a blue label soon.

Though a savvy consigner, being savvy, would have already explored the idea of resto removal, yet for some reason decided it wasn't a good idea...

And even a blue label wouldn't fix the animal chew on the top right corner.

Unfortunately I sold off most of my JLA collection several years ago. :sorry:

Well, did you use your money to put it back into some of your former Duck books, or did you expand your horizons to include turtles, aardvarks, and other forms of anthropomorphic animals?  :bigsmile:

Some I spent on hookers and blow.  The rest I wasted.

If you use these sales as a guide, then imho the Bound TEC 27 run volume on Ebay is a STEAL!

Just reach out to Bob if you're interested, I'm sure he still has it available. Probably just took it down for the time being since he wasn't getting any buyers. I know he was looking to get about what these unrestored pages sold for, for his trimmed pages if taken out of his book.

Do you remember if it has the centerfold to Tec 27 ?  If anyone wants to go In On it I’ll lower your price by putting up CF $ for that page if available.
