Just got the grades on a recent CGC order.

I have a 9.8 ToyBiz variant of Spider-Man 2099 #1 coming back.

Last sale in October was for $1600. Asking prices on e-bay are $2698 & $4k (OBO).

Sell, or hold?

@00slim Congrats on the grade! Personally, I'd sell right now. People are flush with stimulus money and tax refunds right now. That being said, I do think the value is going to go up as you get closer to Into the Spiderverse 2, but personally, I say sell. Good luck!

Have I told you about the time I dropped off 3,000 comics at SDCC? Scifinator private msg quote post Address this user
I would put up at a high price and see what the market will bare on it. An auction in one of the "Prime" auctions at MCS or ComicLink is another option, there have been quite a few incidents of key and rarer comics far exceeding market prices almost to the point that makes me wonder are some of these bidders trying to launder money, lol.

So, I purchased this book back in December.




I was not planning on selling it and I’m still not sure I want to, honestly. But I sent it in for grading and I just discovered it’s coming back a 7.0 from CGC with off-white pages. The highest on the census between both CGC & CBCS.

Full disclosure, there is a PGX 9.4 floating around, somewhere, but does that count?

The current market madness is the only thing making me consider selling it. It would be a long while before I could find another, never mind one in the same condition.

I estimate it to be worth $1500 (speculation on my part, but the sole 6.0 out there is probably worth $900 now).

What would be a good “I don’t wanna sell it” price?

@00slim - "What would be a good “I don’t wanna sell it” price?" LOL, I have a few of those. That price is the "I can't imagine it going for this price" number. Maybe for you, that is $2,500 or maybe it is $4,999. Or, maybe it the price of the comic that you want to get into your collection now but your just not willing/able to pay that price right now.

Think of what price you wouldn't buy it at, and then add 50%.

I would have to really need the money in order to sell any 9.8 comic book for $39. Just hold it until you get your price or counter-offer somewhere over $50 at least.

@Bronte I found this at comiclink's current auction, 7.5 asm #6 off-white pages. Maybe you can wait a few days to see how much this goes for and sell yours for more or list it on the comiclink website and only have to pay 10% plus shipping cost to their location.

@flanders

Thank you for pointing this out. His offer will expire by then, but I'll wait as long as possible to see how it goes.

Thank you again for looking into this

I'm about to click sell but I click the guys name. He has over 9k feedback at 100% positive. However, I can't see any feedback or what he has for sale or anything. Is that normal when you have a pending offer?

I needed to get a message to him so I ended up countering a small amount and included message. We shall see what happens. Either way I wasn't in a hurry to sell.....

Got an offer on eBay for the Moon Knight 1 from my sales thread. eBay price is $75, offer is for $50.

I think that is a really good point and it's the lesson I'm learning about the current climate as well. Particularly with books that are $60-$70...if something is on the horizon just let it ride until the event arrives. The upside potential seems great enough now to be worth the risk of holding on.

Follow up. I sold the book for 3075$

Thank you all for your help.

One weird thing the guys past reviews are still not visible.

Edit..


I looked on a desktop and it says his settings are set to private.

Not sure why it didn't say that on app on phone.....

@Bronte I didn't even know that was a thing you could do. I've seen people with 'private listing' feedback, so you couldn't see what the item was or who bought it, but you still saw the general rating.

From the description it said he could not sell stuff with hidden feedback. So this guy bought 9k worth of stuff since I think it was 2007? That's insane. I don't think I could buy that much even if I had unlimited funds....
