Sweet Lou 14 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Hello again! Seems to me that the Kamala Khan keys all need an update. Most glaring is the second printing of Captain Marvel (2012) #17, which is currently scored at 24 for a 9.8 even though that has become a $3,000+ book. But the same is true for #14 and #17 (first printing). I imagine that Ms. Marvel (2014) #1 and the awkwardly named All-New Marvel Now! Point One #1 are in the same boat. Thanks! I updated scores for standard, variant and additional prints from your request. Matt G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedGiant Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Hi Matt @Matt G Cry for Dawn #4 Limited Edition - appears undervalued in registry: 9.6 went for $197: https://www.ebay.com/itm/333680198048 Cry for Dawn #7 Deluxe Letterbox Edition - there haven't been sales for this book for a long time (and ZERO 9.8s in census), but recently a 9.2, a 9.4, and a 9.6 sold, so seems like a good time to update registry as this book is undervalued in registry: 9.6 went for $330: https://www.ebay.com/itm/383754016816 9.4 went for $212: https://www.comiclink.com/auctions/item.asp?id=1427370 9.2 went for $175 on 6/27/20 Scores above updated. Cry for Dawn #9 Limited Edition - appears overvalued in registry: listed in registry as 571 in 9.8 and 357 in 9.6 - which would make this the most valuable Limited Edition in the set, which is simply not true last sale of a 9.8 was $295 according to GPA last sale of a 9.6 was $158 according to GPA Score lowered.

hermster Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Hey Matt, @Matt G I should have been more specific with the Batman Beyond #1 being updated, it should have been the 1999 Limited Series, I dont know which one got updated in regards to my prior post. Thanks Matt Thank you for clarifying. Score Updated. Matt G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the sales of #1,1st & 2nd print especially, need some tweaking of their algorithm. (6th print also to be looked into, imho at least) The 2nd printings of #4, #4 Manufacturing Error, #5, #6 and #7 all could stand for some updating. If individuals don’t see merit in any of the books I spoke of - no worries at all. I just needed to throw it out there to hear what TMNT collectors think and than obviously your opinion Matt, with the current points correlating with the books nowadays. Best, Eric Hello Eric, I have made the updates that you specifically mentioned in your post. It is not feasible to research and update every book in every set so I stuck with the highlighted ones. Please let me know if there are any other outliers that need to be addressed. Thank you Matt, Imho you did a helluva job with all you did with those books! 🏆 Thank-you so much, I truly appreciate it. I hope other TMNT collectors feel the same. (If any TMNT fans have any input on other books please step forward with some stats & facts) Matt G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramrod44 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 On 8/13/2020 at 1:21 AM, ramrod44 said: Hello, I have a question concerning Swamp Thing (1982) #20. The point value for a 9.6 universal is 225 yet the Canadian price variant point value is only 100 in 9.6. The CPV is over 20 times as rare and sells for a significant premium. Please advise. Thanks! I have increased the CPV and decreased the standard issue as sales are actually lower than expected. Please note that the CPV sales are not as common which is why this was not changed before. Thank you Hello, could you please do the same for issues #21 & #25 as well. Thanks! Both standard issue scores decreased and CPV increased. Please note that #21 only had the standard issue so I had to add the CPV. Matt G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Wilby Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Hi Matt, Thamk for updating the Daredevil scores, I am going to try my luck with a few other books. Scores updated. Thank you To start with Edge of the Spider-verse 2 ... the first appearance of Spider-Gwen Values are in the $700's The next book is Vengeance 1 Dell Otto Variant The values are around $400 And finally Deadpool 36 Dell Otto Variant With a value around $200 dollars Probably Edge of the Spiderverse 2 is one most need of fixing, there is a variant which has huge prices as well I hope all is well Best Regards Rob Matt G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenWA Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 On 6/18/2020 at 2:12 PM, StephenWA said: Dear Matt Please take a look at The Walking Dead #33, Second Printing, slot ID https://comics.www.collectors-society.com/registry/comics/SlotScoreDetail.aspx?SlotID=128973 This is the rare edition with the blue cover (the First printing had a red cover), and was a very limited run. In the market, it attracts a premium of about 4-5x the First printing. This is evidenced from sellmycomicbooks.com in the screenshot attached (and see https://www.sellmycomicbooks.com/the-walking-dead-comic.html - look just about half way down the page). I suggest that the current 48 points for 9.8U should be increased to about 150-200. Thank you for your consideration. Thank you for your patience. I have increased the score accordingly.

Please note that these are not grossly under valued. The sales seem to jump around a bit based on grade as well which makes it difficult to adjust properly. IE a 9.2 may have sold for more than a 9.4. Matt G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Wilby Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Hi Matt, I saw you did a mighty catch last week on slot requests. I have a few more books where the score seem out of kilter: Avenging Spider-man 9 First appearance of Carol Danvers as Captain Marvel, certainly a minor key: Scores updated. Thank you Probable FMV of $250 My next is not a key but a killer cover by Milo Manara I think a fair market value of $170 is conservative: I thought I would throw in another Dell Otto cover, one from the sinister six series he did for Amazing Spider-man: I think a FMV value of $250-$300 is easilly justified: Another great cover by Dell Otto: With a FMV again conservativelly at $200: Here's another Dell Otto venom cover: This again has a conservative FMV of $200: And another great daredevil cover: With a FMV of $150 -$200 And finally a Peach Momoko cover on Silver Surfer Black, she is such a hot artist she probably deserves her own set!: The FMV of this book is easilly $350 Thanks and I hope all is well Regads Robert Matt G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICK STARR Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Hi Matt, Thank you for all the recent upgrades. I would like to bring to your attention of the many iconic and classic horror, crime and girl art issues that should have significant point adjustments. Most of these issues are highly sought after and hard to find, if at all, in high grades like their Marvel and DC counterparts. Sadly, most pre-code horror titles are vastly under represented in point values. I am going to list a number of books with their recent sales as documented by GPA. I am concentrating on the more iconic and classic issues.

Sauce Dog Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 This is my first request, so hopefully it is warranted. I noticed that in the Hellboy (1993-1994) set (and any others that contain these key books) that Dime Press 4 is rather low in points, a 9.4 signature series only being 198 (compare that to a Next Men #21 signature series 9.4 going for more at 231) as it is a book that has been selling for many hundred of dollars over Next Men at the very least and is the most expensive of the three key Hellboy 1st appearances. Next Men seems alright in points, but compared to it Dime Press is very stunted. Thanks Prices for example, either 90day Avg or last sale when only that is available. Next Men #21 Universal 9.8 $315 Signature 9.8 $475 Universal 9.6 $177 Signature 9.6 $250 Universal 9.4 $142 Signature 9.4 $185 San Diego Comic-Con Comics #2 Universal 9.8 $461 Signature 9.8 $537 Universal 9.6 $234 Signature 9.6 $359 Universal 9.4 $204 Signature 9.4 $365 Dime Press #4 Universal 9.8 $511 (2009 price) Signature 9.8 $1399 (2016 price) Universal 9.6 $2999 (2020 price) Signature 9.6 $1000 (2019 price) Universal 9.4 $840 (2020 price) Signature 9.4 $1399 (2020 price) Dime Press #4 and San Diego Comic-Con Comics #2 increased.

Rob Wilby Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Hi Matt, I hope all is well in Florida. It must be a year since you left London. I have some more score updates for your consideration: The first couple are from the Gabriele Dell Otto set: Hi @Rob Wilby Scores increased. It will actually be one year this weekend since I left London. Thank you for not forgetting about me haha. This has a fair market value of around $160: The next one is spiderman 682 This has a conservative FMV of $150 And a rare for me DC Cover: With a FMV of $150 Another Modern Key With a FMV of around $275 Another Modern Key With a FMV of $275 And to close a lovely Manara cover With a FMV of $120 I think that will do for today. Many Thanks Robert Matt G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICK STARR Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 On 10/20/2020 at 7:42 PM, RICK STARR said: Hi Matt, Thank you for all the recent upgrades. I would like to bring to your attention of the many iconic and classic horror, crime and girl art issues that should have significant point adjustments. Most of these issues are highly sought after and hard to find, if at all, in high grades like their Marvel and DC counterparts. Sadly, most pre-code horror titles are vastly under represented in point values. I am going to list a number of books with their recent sales as documented by GPA. I am concentrating on the more iconic and classic issues.

Sauce Dog Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Thanks for the prior score fix, happy to have had one my suggestions work out. While I'm not going to comment on the full run of issues (only has issues 2,3,4,5 and issues 1 was Unknown World), Strange Stories From Another World seems to be a little out of date. It rarely comes up for good GPA, but one issue (#4, the classic Zombie cover) has come up several times recently this year so can show the desire and current price range. I have found this cover is regarded as the one to get from the run (and I believe the rarest in higher grades).Strange Stories From Another World 4 4.0 $249 (Apr 2020) - Currently 51 points in the registry 4.5 $576 (Oct 2020) - Currently 59 points in the registry 5.0 $558 (Jul 2020) - Currently 74 points in the registryUpdated #4 and 5 on 11/5/20. #2-3 do not have any recent sales.

StephenWA Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Dear @Matt G Since your note to @Sensei Ryan 17 August 2020 (in the "Add" thread) on setting the scores for these six comics at the default level, I have been tracking sales. I suggest that the scores can now be revised as follows: Negan Lives! 1 = already correct at 40 points for 9.8U Negan Lives! 1 Second Printing = already correct at 40 points for 9.8U Negan Lives! 1 Silver Foil Edition = suggest slight uplift to 48 points for 9.8U (aligns with the sales price, interest, rarity of Special Edition 1 and/or the 132 Loot Crate Edition) Negan Lives! 1 Gold Foil Edition = suggest uplift into the region of 64-104 points for 9.8U (price, interest, rarity between 150 Retailer Appreciation Edition and 171 Pink Lorenzo Signature Variant) Negan Lives! 1 Second Printing/Bronze Foil Edition = suggest uplift into the region of 64-104 points for 9.8U (rational as Gold Foli above) Negan Lives! 1 Red Foil Edition = suggest uplift into the region of 250-400 points for 9.8U (price, interest and rarity between Here's Negan Preview nn and 100 Ottley Sketch Cover) Thank you for your consideration. Kind regards Stephen Scores updated. 11/6/20 Matt G and Sensei Ryan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
