Watching this….but need to know what the best offer was

Here it is. Full asking price.

With bag and ā€œBoaā€ā€¦.looks like a snake was included…cool!

And what’s with the $4.99 shipping? That’s my move!

This book seems to be making a gradual steady climb, seems triple what it was a year ago.

I was literally just watching one of these that was listed as VF (looked a whole lot better than that).
Ultimately I let it go a couple days ago without bidding as I’ve been on a bit of a spending free-for-all lately.
The one I was watching ended with 1 bid which to me was a bit surprising. I think it went for $79; but probably because the grade description. I really thought it was better.

always felt it was an undervalued book

I bought a CGC 9.0 6 years ago for $42. It’s probably a 9.8 now.

Looser grading since covid boom imo.

Are we talking CGC grades of when CGC received the book, or after they’ve bent the book and put a number on a label that doesn’t represent the bent book?

Oh yeah… I forgot they bend books.

It’s the grandfather clause perhaps… CGC be like… ā€œOur manhandling of your comics don’t count as damage!ā€

I had one that went for like 49 bucks, but that was a half year ago.

The new film is really drumming up
interest among those who were not that familiar with the franchise, I’d imagine. The fact that the new movie is so mothershucking awesome could be bringing folks over to our neck of the woods as readers and collectors.

I enjoyed it. It was a very different take on the Predator lore.

Some items that I’m looking for on NCBD at the shops that I think are flying under the radar for Absolute Batman.

As everyone knows, 1st prints of Cover A’s are very hot, but there are still gems out there to be found.

Specifically the 1:25 retailer variant covers for 2nd-5th prints of #1, 1:25 2nd print (Batmobile cover) #2, and 1:25 2nd print #4 (ghost).

#2 2nd print 1:25 (Batmobile virgin) raw just sold for $125 and I’ve sold two for $90
#1 2nd print 1:25 is creeping up to #50-$70
#1 3rd print 1:25 is $45-$60

There was also a Galley Promotional edition of the Zoo TPB that I think was given to comic shops. It is harder to find and recent copies have sold from $60-$75.

Also the Blank Sketch Cover (Blue logo) has now started to sell in the $45-$60+ range.

Good hunting everyone!

These 2nd print 1:25 are a complete ghost at my shops. My LCS don’t play that game. Can only find them online at major retailers or ebay.
