I don't have a pic yet, but just heard about my one submission ... it is coming back a 9.4. Amazing Spider-Man 301. Not bad, but I was hoping it would grade higher.

So, my second miss in my quest for a 9.8 of this issue. For those who didn't see my original post about this comic, the difference in price between a 9.6 and a 9.8 of #301 is HUGE. So, I'll keep trying. Sending another candidate off today!

Prices on eBay for this issue (SS McFarlane) are all over the place.
9.6 auction, current bid is $132.50
9.2 fixed price for $699.99
#301 (9.4) and #302 (9.2) together: $1095.00
9.6 fixed price for $749.99
9.4 auction start at $399.99
9.2 fixed price at $359.99

And there may be others if I play around with search terms.

I don't think this will go for what some are asking. I think I'll price mine for a quick sale starting at $399, though I would take ~$300 pretty easily. I don't think I'd have to drop it below that, but we'll see!

@Tedsaid Did you have your books pressed before submitting or was that an option for the CGC McFarlane signing? I am waiting to send mine in until the new cases from CBCS debut in March, but more than likely it will be Summer or Fall when I get around to it since I am planning on selling my house and buying a different one. I want to send in my entire run of #298-328 to be pressed, as Todd signed the entire run on the inside front page back in the early 90's but had him sign #300 again on the cover a few years ago so mine will all need to go through the authentication process and will have red labels but that does not really bother me. Hoping I can get some high grades too!

Yes, it was an option and yes, I sent mine to CCS for pressing. (It had to be CCS, if you wanted it pressed *after* it was signed.)

Thanks! I have two more copies of the silver foil variant that Todd signed in NYCC.

I am waiting to get Snyder and Capullo before submitting for a red label.

I wonder if prices for the signed yellow labels will fall as more of them hit eBay? For example, Spawn # 1 9.8 seem to have sold in about the same price range for the last 45+ days...

Jan 27, 2020 - 327.00
Jan 22, 2020 - 305.00
Jan 20, 2020 - 299.99
Jan 19, 2020 - 310.00
Jan 04, 2020 - 377.00
Jan 03, 2020 - 360.00
Jan 03, 2020 - 324.99
Dec 13, 2019 - 384.99
Dec 08, 2019 - 314.85

Not a lot of change so far.

@drchaos I was shocked with the hulk. I thought maybe a 9.2 at best but a press and clean really helped it. The new mutants was a 9.6 to begin with but my pressed found several areas of improvement so I was expecting that to be a 9.8 lol and the asm 316 was the cherry on top for me.

Looks like people started getting packages delivered...

353 "Todd McFarlane signed CGC" books and 373 "Todd McFarlane SS" books are on eBay. Up 24, and 29 books in a day. Since I started checking 2 weeks ago, "Todd McFarlane signed CGC" books listings have jumped 219 (353 - 134 = 219).

If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8. xkonk private msg quote post Address this user
@Towmater are you checking if any of those are relisted auctions?

I just checked "todd mcfarlane cgc ss" and it came back with 537 results. When I remove "cgc" from that, it actually comes up with fewer ... 376. Not sure why.

@Tedsaid Could be because a lot of them don't list CGC or some books are not graded by CGC and were only signed by Todd without authentication.

@Tedsaid Interesting that you get different search results than I do.

jpgs of my searches I just finished....

Todd McFarlane signed cgc = 362 (up 9 from this morning)





Todd McFarlane ss = 380 (up 7 from this morning)




BTW, ss = signature series

No, I think you read that wrong. I get *fewer* results with a broader search. I'm not sure why. Theoretically, "todd + mcfarlane + SS" should return MORE results than "todd + mcfarlane + CGC + SS." But I guess eBay's algorithm doesn't work that way.

While it is true that there are many newly signed McFatlane books going on the market it could be a year or more until another similar signing opportunity arises.

Also, many people who participated in the signing but we're disappointed with the grades they received will want upgrades.
