What is legit? all of the sale pending sales? What are the prices...Does everyone know how comiclink works?

I talked to CKB about these, since they are historic (to say the least)

Here's the rundown...

$200 - Shadowman 0 Gold CGC 9.6
$325 - Bloodshot 0 Gold CGC 9.8
$350 - Unity 1 Gold CGC 9.8
$350 - X-O Manowar 0 Gold CGC 9.8
$550 - Harbinger 0 Pink CGC 9.8
$650 - Unity 0 Red CGC 9.8

According to Comiclink, the buyer is already well-known with
previous non-Valiant purchases.

I guess these books were priced alright for him!

Congrats to CKB!

So CKB was the seller? OMG this is nutty!

Great job selling those books but man those prices are out of this world

I guess that is why I am sticking to regular issues and not going for the variants. Also the fact that I would feel like I had to have all of them in order to complete my set and I simply can not afford that.

Maybe after the current speculator bubble deflates I can pick up premium books but not until.

So the guy that paid 345.00 for the 9.8 harbinger pink got a great deal?

Also 3 of these books are chromium covers...how many 9.8 of those are there? jesus christ....this is insane....Happy for the seller...I guess a sucker is born every minute...

Looks like that tiny font isn't small enough....

Steve is an X-O statue turkey.

Hey CKB!

I just noticed that your invoice doesn't say "GOLD" or "PINK" or "RED" on those issues...
As if the prices weren't insane enough, now the 'documentation' makes
it look like those were just common issues!

ckb · Post by **ckb** » Fri May 07, 2004 1:27 pm

Yeah, the comiclink system does not have a field for variant that is added to the title of the auction. In order for me to get it in, I would have had to add a "Harbinger Pink" title, rather than just "Harbinger".

I didn't want to clutter the system with titles, so I just put the information about the variant in the text.
