You didn't seperate "pre" and "Unity", which means people using either of those searches won't find you.

I wouldn't worry about it.....really....
Well, that and he left the #0 out of the Archer & Armstrong title.

Please. Like anyone's gonna look for the ISSUE NUMBER in a search. Whatevah!

It's got several things going for it... only 25% submitted to CGC have been 9.8.
First issue, first appearances... the only pre-Unity Gold issue... BWS art...
...and only 7 (so far) in CGC 9.8... if one ever sells under $100, I want one.

And, am I wrong...the rarest pre-Unity?

Can you believe it? I was so careful about everything else that I left the "#0" out of the title! Since most people are looking for "Archer Armstrong Gold" or "Valiant gold," or they'll hear about it through this site, I should be fine...but still!

It's my fav gold. If anyone cares.

$200

Like I said before I saw one go a year or so ago for about $150. I thought that might've been a little crazy. Obviously not.

You seemed to be shocked at the prices of most/all 9.8 valiants....what do you think this book should go for?

The $150 was the crazy part...

Crazy-low.

It also means we hit double super secret eBay hidden bidder land. Which is terribly annoying.

I seemed to be shocked? Does that mean I'm not shocked anymore? I was in the past though?

I saw one go for $150 before. I thought it'd go for about the same

23 hours to go, 16 bids, 30 watchers, and 927 views. Quite the hooplah.

Those are some serious numbers for a Valiant auction. Good luck!

Had it occurred to you that perhaps it was an isolated case...a bottom price perhaps that would indicate support for that book at that price?

Maybe you haven't been collecting valiants very long, maybe you have a whole stack at home, i don't know...but i have about four of these A&A golds i've purchased all at different times at different prices and the best any of them would get is a 9.4. And if i tried to submit all 4 books hoping one would get a 9.6/9.8 the total cost would be far greater than if i just bought this book in 9.6 off ebay. There's a reason there's a premium for 9.8s (especially this book), if i saw it for $150 i would glady pay that price.

Ditto here. It's been a very tough book for me in high grade.
