kinzebac Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I wanted the tec 32 but the top staple looks completely rusted. I thought you were going to buy that one Peter and get Kenny to replace the staple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotham Kid Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I wanted the tec 32 but the top staple looks completely rusted. I thought you were going to buy that one Peter and get Kenny to replace the staple. Yeah but that would make it purple. No ? Have 0 issues with a purple 32 but not at a 10k price tag.

jgallo Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Tec 36 CGC 4.5 blue sold on CLink last night for $13,750. Previous sale in the same grade was only three months ago @ $12,200. Seller did very well, considering they bought the book raw on eBay only a few months ago. The book presents much better after a press, and possible dry cleaning (?). And...I thought coverless but complete Tec 27's were roughly $30k...? And yet, a coverless copy / no centerfold / slightly brittle just sold for $27,500. Wow. I have to admit that I was a little surprised about the Tec 36 price being so high, but then again, nothing surprises me in the Pre-Robin Tec world anymore. As for the Tec 27, possibly the fact that it was incomplete and didn't have the best page quality kept it under 30k. I think that is pretty close to the mark price wise. There just isn't anything available in any type of lower price range. The 6.5 Extensive went for 107+ and I think that is pretty close to the buy in price for any complete copy. I think a nice interior would bring 40K range.. At this point it seems there are 3 or 4 action 1 for every detective 27 we are seeing.

lhcomics Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 On the Tec 36 I stopped at $12,750. Would like to have it but would have to sell a comic that I would probably regret to help pay for it. I never saw it on ebay or I might have made a run on it then.

It might make it a conserved purple but not a restored purple. Anyways, I totally get what you are saying, especially for 10k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I too didnt bid on the Tec 36. Thought it went for a strong price. Colors on it are killer, but too bad the cf is detached. Saw the book on ebay, but didn't bid strong enough to win. I should've bid higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James G In the long run a 3:1 /4:1 ratio marketwise could tip the balance between the big two. A least if one is expecting to see the supply vs. demand equation kick in. Or ... ? did I miss something. Then I will gladly be educated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgallo Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 The numbers are almost the same for total graded copies. The tec is certainly hard to get in high grade. Action 35 Blue 1 Green 27 Purple Detective 30 Blue 1 Green 31 Purple. That being said I know that some of the .5 and 1./1.5 copies of Detective 27 have been restored so it is possible they are listed twice. I always felt it was pretty well accepted that the Detective 27 was rarer and that action 1 just had an edge with demand. James G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
