cheta42 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Right now I price sc4 and af15 about the same , grade for grade Very interesting. I know The Showcase 4 has caught up on some grades dollar for dollar but I cannot see it sustain this trend. I hope it does because of love Showcase 4 and Af15. And seeing that the Flash storyline in the DC reboot a couple weeks ago taking center stage it might open the book up to a new generation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 The 4.5 and the 7.0 Voldemart are softer prices. These softer prices and pullbacks are futile and prices just can go up parabolic. It's the pauses that refreshes. AF15 without chip will blow away any SC4 grade per grade. and yet, I only stock AF 15 with no MC, and I get the same $'s, grade for grade (5.0 and below only so far) for both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the 7.0 SC 4 that sold is even further off from even the weakest AF 15 sale in grade. -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing anecdotal about actual realized sales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texmurphy2099 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 that 7.5 on comic connect a little while back sold for like 78k - thats af15 prices to me.. I think they are around the same price, likely bc of the lower supply. Wonder what would have been if that was a cgc 7.0, or if it IS a cgc 7.0.... what we really need is a nice high grade sc4 to hit the market. side note I'm really excited for that new Flash movie director, he's a fantastic choice.

The other company 7.0 looks more like a 6.5. Even at a 6.5 price, it was softer. SC4 are so scarce in CGC 7.0+ and would like to see more at public auction/market as you mentioned.

The recent upsurge with AF15 clearly shows AF15 has continue to take the grip lead as "King of the Silver Age". I have to say, SC4 really had a great match up to round three with a "TKO" by AF15. Time to update your price stock Gator. Edited June 11, 2016 by showcase22gr1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knockdown by TKO round 3 "see above". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Well to be honest, I couldn't see SC #4 being in the same price levels as AF #15 in the long run. Sure it had its temporary peak being neck and neck with AF 15, but I just didn't believe it could sustain it. I know how rarer the book is compared to an AF 15, but I would still value it lesser.

TeddieMercede Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 This book should not be trading at the same levels as AF 15 - demand was almost non existent before the tv show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark 1 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I know someone with a 7.0 AF15 with no chipping looking to possibly sell soon. What can it get? 60k? 70k? If a SC4 7.5 got 78k.....I wonder... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a SC4 7.5 got 78k.....I wonder... This is probably a better question in the AF 15 thread but a 6.5 AF 15 just went for $49k I'm the CC auction, and a boardie says he knows of a 7.0 copy with no MC selling for $60k recently. -J.

tabcom Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) Ebay listing that sold today. Winning bid: $3,849.99 Edited June 23, 2016 by tabcom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texmurphy2099 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 that seemed like a good price to me but then I saw that description This book has a couple of issues. First and foremost its been color touched. 2nd someone tried to clean color touch and it looks like that's what caused hole (pictured) on cover. Also detached at bottom staple and half inch tare (pictured) on cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
october Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I was watching it and passed on bidding. It sold previously for $5500 and was presumably returned. Interesting that the first sale didn't have the botched cleaning... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Showcase-4-Sep-Oct-1956-DC-/262442533574?hash=item3d1acb42c6:g:Ok0AAOSw1DtXFAkx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zosocane Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 So that is about a 2.5 SA? Assuming just slight color touch, seems like a fair strike price. Tricky to tell because not much helpful GPA data to go by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
