$500 live auction went unsold. Seems like a lot of people still on the fence, though I think this will still end up being a key. The full metal cover was 20yrs in the making.

Re: X-O 1 1:500 Print Run Speculation
I went into my shop as usual on Wednesday, and they had a surprise waiting for me. They said a Valiant salesperson visited them last Wed after I came in and purchased the Brushed Metal cover (which is now on its way to DBS - triple boxed!). He gave them an extra goody, and I could have it at no charge.mkb28 wrote:$177.50 plus shipping.JCP wrote:How much will the gold variant auction go for?

Seems to me the Gold books were given out to Retailers first. I wonder if they will hand them out at Cons next?

Re: X-O 1 1:500 Print Run Speculation
The damage on the back is severe.
Look at this one. I actually think it reduces the value being signed by someone not involved with the specific book.

As of today, I am tracking 29 copies that have been sold on eBay.
There are 8 copies for sale, including the (presently only) CGC 9.8 Signature Series copy.

X-O 1 1:500 Print Run Speculation
Question: is a CGC 9.6 brushed metal variant valued higher than an unknown raw? I might make my first ever submission to CGC today at C2E2 (in person, even!) and I'm not quite sure if I've got a 9.6 or a 9.8 here.

Re: X-O 1 1:500 Print Run Speculation
There was a 9.6 on ebay that ended at just above $500, so I don't think the value is much (or any) higher.AnarchoMambo wrote:Question: is a CGC 9.6 brushed metal variant valued higher than an unknown raw?
