Sometimes I Can Barely Keep Up

(And Happy Thanksgiving for those of you in the States)

Scoop is reporting that Doug sold a CGC VF/NM Hulk #1 for $100,000. With all of these Marvel keys getting into six figures my head is starting to spin.

I nearly called the price on the Star Wars 35 Cent Variant that ended at ComicLink last night.

It ended at a tidy $26,250.

I wish I was always that good.
