well, that's only a guess...

I don't really like the "when new books come" thing because anything can happen. Have the Gold Key Solars skyrocketed after 10 yrs+ of Valiant? Guess not. If you're planning on paying your granson's university fees with Harbinger Pinks, maybe you'd better get into the stock market... or online poker. This is supposed to be about fun a little geekism and all that...

Just my two cents (of an euro)

I would say that the price is a little high, but I am just posting what they sold for...after they sold, I got another email asking me if I had any more...so that's 3 that would have sold at 50...I haven't checked lately to see what they are going for because I only have 1 more (and that's mine!!!) :D
really...i've been consistently seeing these sell for around 30-40$, i'm surprised ppl would jump on them at $50.
A few months ago, they were selling for $60 easy raw. They came down recently. With this book, a raw NM will sell better than a slabbed 9.4 pretty much always and sometimes more than a slabbed 9.6.

I disagree, I think they will skyrocket at first and then drop just because anyone who knows Valiant will buy a couple issues because it was gone so long. Gold Key jumped huge when Valiant first released Magnus, Turok, and Solar....at least in the LCS in my area. HOWEVER, I will not sell my books no matter, they are my pride and joy. (OK, so I need a life)

Guys. Not really the appropriate thread for this discussion. Can we please take it elsewhere, at least on an 'official' thread?

Greg, can you line item delete please?

Thanks all.

Yeah, it looks like that would be a big "NO".

Relax, kids.

I still have a feeling that demand will increase. Not in the near future, but when the company starts getting increased sales. I wouldn't unload them yet.

My guess is that many of 'old' hoarders that aren't too interested in continuing Valiant are trying to unload 'extra' hoards. Many of the RARE-est of books are still commanding the bucks. And increasing. I remember missing out on an Armorines 4 for $30... And then WISHING I could have gotten back to it and bid higher.

Right now, dumping exceeds demand. I am betting that it will catch up. 2014-ish?

If I win an argument, it doesn't mean I'm right. It means I'm a better arguer.

In addition, I'm right.

If anyone is taking notes :P I sold my copy of the Harbinger 7 Flamingo variant for 60 USD, comic raw but high-grade candidate. Buyer was certainly satisfied :D (and if somehow he's reading this- Thank You! :thumb: )
