After two years of me throwing sh!+ to see if it'll stick someone finally put a price on a Swampy #37 Mark Jewelers. This is the only variant of the book I don't have in my stable and it's nice. The problem is it seems as if it's going to take my House of Secrets #92, 7.5 to get the job done. I'm not sure what to do, I can get another HOS 92 but an MJ of Swampy #37 are hens teeth. My cash amount I'd receive is all relative considering I'm trading a graded book for a raw one.

Thoughts?

That's really tempting. Like you said, @HeinzDad, you can always get another HOS #92. I think I'd go for it!

Good luck! Let us know what you decide.

Get the Mark Jewelers. HOS 92s are like second wives, easy to find, but they might cost you a little extra in the long run.

You beat me to it. Not even close to HOS 92, 7.5.

Do you know how long that book has been there? I do. Did you know that even though it has a make offer option he ignores them? I do.

Funny story about that Ebay book. I've been watching it for 2 years as well. Someone I talk to politely asked me if I minded it if they went for it. Obviously they didn't have to do this and was being polite. My response was that the sale of that book could give me leverage. Something is only worth what someone will pay and for 2 years no one would pay 800 for that book. No reply to what I consider a legit offer would be the "I don't want to sell it price".

To be clear, I’m not sure yet what my cash result would be so we aren’t comparing apples to apples yet.

Apparently, I am easily annoyed. Rbolton private msg quote post Address this user
I think I’d go for the MJ now and try to grab another HOS down the road, both are great books.

That’s a tough one. If it means that much to you then go for it. I regret not getting a HOS 92 a few years back before it tripled.

Hind sight is 20/20; better to see your ass when your kicking herself.

With that being said, if I would have kept my 3.5 life would be easier now.
