elibowman Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Anyone else been following the results of this auction? I had some hopes of winning a couple of the group lots, but I was not even CLOSE on these ending values. Amazing to me where these auctions are ending.

elibowman Posted April 14, 2021 Author Share Posted April 14, 2021 Well, I got one...paid about 15-18% more than I wanted to, but compared to how high most of these went (compared to my maximums), I did great on the one book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throwing money at a comic book lot and hoping for a major find is like gambling in Vegas...IMO. Not at all surprised. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elibowman Posted April 14, 2021 Author Share Posted April 14, 2021 Some of those pre-code books have been shocking to me. 15 early Strange Tales books for $9,500 + premium + shipping; 23 Mystic books for $11,000; 19 early Journey Into Mystery for $9,500. Those were some of the shocking numbers for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MustEatBrains Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I was able to snag a couple of graded books, but agree the prices are mostly through the roof on most of the lots, not to mention the 20% BP. I wouldn't touch the raw books at some of those prices. There were some neat PCH you don't see every day up for grabs. The chamber of chills 19 was SWEET!
