High Value eBay Comics Auction For the Week Ending 2012.4.21 (Incredible Hulk #1)

Incredible Hulk 1 cgc 6.0 WP key silver age comic book L@@K 

Sold For: $9,000 Seller: tracydizenhouse ( 167 )

Description:

Hi All!

Up for bidding is one of the biggest key books of the silver age, the first appearance and book of the incredible hulk! Very in demand book and with so few copies of this gem available, you shouldn't pass it up!

This book is CGC graded as 6.0 (F) with perfect WHITE pages!!! This book looks much higher than a 6.0 in my opinion, the grade is being pulled down due to some marvel chipping on the right side of the front cover. WIthout the chipping, I would give this book a VF- or VF grade!!

Shipping will be included, and I'll send USPS priority which is 2-3 days typically anywhere in the US. International buyers will have to inquire about purchasing this book (and associated shipping costs)

A great book to add to any serious collector's portfolio OR simply a good investment to put in the closet as a diversified investment!

This book has only gone up for the last decades and will continue to do so!

Good luck bidding and be sure to ask questions and check out my other auctions. I have other key comics for sale and coming up on ebay (including Amazing Fantasy 15, Spider-man 1, Hulk 1, Fantastic Four 1, Showcase 22, Avengers 1 and Many Many More)

I will accept paypal (for more expensive books, other arrangements may be worked out at buyer's discretion)

Thanks for looking and be sure to add me as a favorite seller, plenty more big books coming!

High Value eBay Comics Auction For the Week Ending 2012.4.7 (Suspense #3)

Suspense Comics #3 CGC 6.5 SCARCE Classic Schomburg Bondage Cover Continental' 

Sold For: $24,977.00 Seller: sparklecitycomics ( 44372 )

Description:

Suspense Comics #3 CGC 6.5 SCARCE Classic Schomburg Bondage Cover Continental'

Suspense Comics #3 is one of the most desirable comics of the golden age. The cover is arguably Schomburg's best and due to both its scarcity and cover art, Suspense Comics #3 is at the top of just about every golden age collector's list. The biggest problem is finding a copy. This amazing copy is one just about the best that can be acquired. There are just 2 copies that have graded higher with the highest being a lone 8.0 and just a single coipy one notch down at 7.5. It is doubtful that either of those copies will be available anytime soon. Serial number 0013021002. Very small piece of tape on centerfold at staple.
