The ASM 300 Newsstand I sold 8 Years ago for $100 does not count, so I'm going with TMNT Adventures NM+ set-1-4, for $19.95 1 year ago.

Sold a Marvel Spotlight #5 in 8.5 for $500 a few years ago....right before it started shooting up in price.

I sold a MS5 CGC 9.4 ages ago (circa 2009) for $700.  More recently wishing I had waited on selling my SME15 CGC 9.8 a few more months.

ASM316 9.8 Lee, Mcfarlane, Mich yellow label sold for 1500 years ago. It wasn't too much of a loss because I did replace that with X-men97 9.8 however. I don't know exactly what to make of that since X97 doesn't sell often in top grades compared to ASM316 which sell often. I think out of those two the 97 is better long term.
