Can anyone help me nail down a price for IDW GI Joe 252 cover B? I cannot find any sold listings in recent history on eBay. I can’t find an active sale listing for it either. Hot Baroness cover.
I sold a couple copies several months ago. They can go anywhere from $25-$50. They might have gone up though as supply dwindle.
Edit: OOPs that was the price for cover A. $25-$50. Cover B the Royle cover I sold for $60 I believe, they can go anywhere from $75-$100 but can be higher now. Mine was a VF/NM copy so didn’t mind letting it go. If it was a 9.8 I would’ve hung on and got it graded.

Cool. I have one and want to sell it. I think I’ll put it up for $100 and see what happens. If CGC didn’t ruin books, I’d get it graded but I give up. I’m not taking the chance. I also found the Black Cat 1 J Scott Campbell Cat Noir variant cover in a box I had and I can’t believe what that sells for. My copy is a solid 9.8 but I can’t take the chance. I’ll just sell it raw.

Thanks for that info. The two most recent sales look promising.

If you don’t need the money right away I would absolutely not sell the Black Cat raw. That is a massive, massive book. I would not send it to CGC either because of the high likelihood that it will get a banana bend, not worth the risk. Instead, send it to PSA. They won’t damage your book and early indications are that PSA is getting about the same FMV as CGC. Still early and could be a novelty thing but I really don’t think so. People really like the new labels and if the FMVs hold up in a few months people will have no problems switching companies and will do it fast.
Worth a shot to send it to PSA. It will be the first Cat Noir PSA 9.8 in the market so you might get a little bump. That’s what I would do anyways if I had a 9.8 candidate.

That’s not a bad idea. I’ll have to look into the submission process for PSA.
I’ve also got Black Cat 1 cover B (Felicia’s loft) which apparently is up there too in price. Maybe I’ll send both books in.
I would agree. Worst case (pun intended) you can crack it out later.
