You're f'ing kidding me, right?
If I was there I would've stepped in and forced an apology right then and right there. Reasons like that is why there are so many stupid rules; stupid rules because of stupid people.
So I just read that the Escape cover has 10,000 print run. What do you think of the current valuation of $100-140 on this then? Too high or low?
The 1:200 should have a print run of 1500 and is going for around $225-300.
The 500 print Comixology is going for around $500.
The escape cover will be $50 tops in a month. The 1:200 will come down to mid 100's eventually (i'm annoyed I had no impulse control and bought one). The Comixology should hold value but probably in the 200-300 range.
The #94 image expo sketch and the #81 comicspro had print runs of 200 and those aren't as expensive even though the 94 sketch is one of the coolest covers in my opinion besides the #50 superhero variant. These may stay high in price for a while but it always comes down to quantity available.
Just my opinion.
Hate to quote myself but multiple on eBay for less than $100 right now. A 'Mint' one just sold BIN for $80.

Lots of current auctions of the escape variant look to have some sort of moisture ripple. Ewww.

Just walked past the Escape. I was offering cash for escape variant but stopped, lot's of copies rolled up and folded. I have a better plan for tomorrow.

Offer to people before the run. tell them how to handle the comic when they get it. then give me one for free for a good idea.

Just a reminder to myself that beauty is in the eye of the beholder...I think the 50 superhero cover and the 94 image expo sketch are the two WORST covers in the the entire run. Despise them both with a passion.

I was in my "sports ticket scalper" mode. It didn't go over well with the participants, too aggressive..
