Iceman399 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Just picked up a BB 28 5.0 for $5500...Guess I just raised the current going price Major congrats. I think I saw that one on ebay, courtesy of Joey D. if I'm not mistaken. -J. Yeah, I wanted the 5.5 but I didn't want the cream pages and the 6.0 was getting out of my price range but was tempting. I settled on the 5.0 with OW from Joey instead. Looks good next to my AF 15. Wait you care about page quality :O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryAllen Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I am surprised the 6.0 hasn't moved to a $10k ish listing price given the recent sale. Gallo's book looks like a steal at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roulette44 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Great pick up Kevin, that book is a stunner. And worth a resub, if you ever decide to give a shot. Wish I knew it was you @ comicmylars...... I love me some BB28!!! I sold my cgc 8.0 as well, but picked up a 7.5 as a consolation prize.....

Iceman399 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 @ comicmylars...... Did I missing something... Given they have a 4.0 @ <4k, 3.0 @ <3k...based on the last few posts these are absolute bargains... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryAllen Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I sold a 1.5 for $995 at c2e2 :shrug: Seems reasonable. Maybe $50-100 higher could happen with the right buyer... How many copies/grades do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Nah, the way CGC over charges for grading silver age books now, it's not worth it, easier to just buy it graded. Not spending 3% of FMV to have it regraded and risk having it come back the same grade or lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait you care about page quality :O Yeah I do, Can't remember how many times I've heard "oh, it has cream pages, I'll pass" when I'm trying to sell something over the years. I guess it entirely depends on the comic itself. We all know that different graders attribute different PQ at times. Furthermore, alot of these DC Silver age and older keys are in that CREAM or CREAM to OFFWHITE category. Doesn't make them any less desireable for me simply based on the scarcity of higher grades. I may not want a CGC 1.0 cream, but I'd be crazy not to grab a 7.0 + in any PQ. Heck, I've been looking for copies of Police Comics #1 (yes, I know it's not a DC key) and if you've been doing so as well, you know that finding one in any condition (restored, incomplete, qualified, etc.) is fairly difficult. I've only come across one in the last 3 years an it was a restored raw in the 3.0 range. Sometimes you just gotta get while the getting is good.

bane Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Sometimes you just gotta get while the getting is good. Completely agree, that's why my Showcase #4 is only 1.5! I had the same thing with my Batman #121 7.0, I think the page quality is only Cream but its a book that doesn't come up often so had to grab it when I saw it!

Jaydogrules Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 People should relax and just enjoy owning these rare and awesome treasures. Unless your book was graded yesterday or you crack it from the slab to see for yourself, you have no way of knowing whether or not that "PQ" on the label is even still indicative of the book inside.
