Yeah, I typically have to travel to find anything in that ballpark now.
I have wiped out my area locally. Havenāt found much luck on the road.
Pretty much all of the earlier David Talaski Batgirl standard cover A editions (#1 to 6 and #9 to 12) are Ā£12/$15+ comics now

I noticed MCS pretty much lists them all for $20. Where did that come from?

All credit to Mercenaut & his Hot Books videos (which imo are really good. One of the very few YouTubers I follow).
He and his cohorts know their stuff. Thank you to them . I have this but didnāt realize it was doing well.
The second book is selling well for some silly reason I didnāt even feel like putting the effort in to read but, here we are. I feel like this was specced on before?

It looks like that has been selling over cover for quite a while now. Meanwhile Covrprice still shows it selling at coverpriceā¦
Perhaps their value algorithm went on vacation for the summerā¦

Their value algorithm is on permanent vacation, its horrible. Love the collection part of CovrPrice and the content, but the valuation is just plain silly.

Agreed, and when I used to find issues I reported them. I soon realized it would be a full time job and all Iād get is a high level explaination how the algorithm āworksā and not any real commitment to fix the issues. Comics drop to zero value, someone sells a comic for well under FMV and all of a sudden thatās the new price, comics stop getting price updates for some reason.

I accidentally bought 2nd printings of that book thinking they were first printsā¦ā¦
Awh dude Iāve done that. Condolences. Maybe those will take flight. Ya never know.
I did it with some Absolute Batman books. Damn tiny writing.

Just in case if anyone here doesnāt already know this. If you look at the 5 digit number on the top right hand corner of the barcode it will tell you the issue number, the variant cover, and the printing.
So a first issue with cover A and first print would be ā001ā ā1ā and ā1ā. The first 3 numbers 001 is the issue number, the 4th digit is the cover variant (1 for A, 2 for B, etc) and the last digit is for the printing (1 first print, 2 2nd print etc)
So for example if you see 00122, it means itās issue 1, cover B and second print.
I always look for a 1 for the last digit if Iām looking for a first print.
