awakeintheashes Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Aliens vs Preditor #1 was a $1 book, and still may be, that can return a nice profit in 9.8. Nothing like Wolvie 35, but decent. Edited October 26, 2020 by awakeintheashes Link to post Share on other sites
slg343 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Several of the Frank Miller DD books. 163 and 165 come to mind. Mostly $1 book outside of CGC 9.8 making the $500 plus books. Link to post Share on other sites
Transplant Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Aliens #1, AvP #1, and DD 163/165 are NOT dollar bin books. Generously, they MAY have been 10-15 years ago. Link to post Share on other sites

F For Fake Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 AvP is indeed still available in dollar bins, but Aliens 1 hasn't been a dollar bin book in many, many years. Even at its lowest, raw NM copies of #1 first print were still $15-20. I think the cheapest I ever found one was $10? I've been buying them since 1988. They've never been dollar books. It is possible that you'd find a DHP 24 in a dollar bin mixed in with runs of DHP by clueless sellers, I guess, but I've personally never found one there. DHP 36 on the other hand is still out there in the bargain bins, as it should be, there are a blue million of 'em. As for 9.8's of the miniseries, they've been pricey and very hard to find for a long time. I got my #1 9.8 here on the boards many years ago. Seller told me it "wouldn't be cheap". I didn't care, I had to have it. Paid $350 for it, was pleased as punch to do so. Looks like I made a good investment, though I'd likely never sell it anyway. #2 took much longer, got it in part of a much larger trade, but equivalent value we agreed on was about $600. Again, that was a few years ago. Anyway, everyone shut up about Aliens, they're all mine! Link to post Share on other sites
Tnexus Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Spider-Gwen #5 2nd and Charles variant. Regularly sells for under $10 raw, but 3 9.8 sales in the past 60 days for $200-$250. Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingDonut Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Fantastic Four 394. There are no reported sales of 9.8s because no 9.8s exist. Link to post Share on other sites
