@MrTdog98 You're not wrong, but who is dropping $1,000+ into this book unless it is exactly a 9.6 to a 9.8? Given it's from 1988, I wouldn't drop more than $350 into this book. It's a more recent key than a lot of other key issues from the Copper Age of comics. Unless you're getting a CGC copy in prestine/mint condition, this book ain't worth $1,000.
@@FriezaDBZKing69 well yeah there’s that part hahah, paying 1000 for a raw copy of that issue is ridiculous. I wish I had those kind of people to sell to 😂😂
Watching this after buying the first ghost rider for $10 at my local comic book store makes me appreciate the other even more... Be watching y'all spend thousands and i be buying the same shii for literally a few dollars😭💯
I just realized today my comic shop sucks. I wasn't really into much but reading them and collecting them until I started watching this channel and a few others a few weeks ago (I have nothing of value of course, since all I did for years was buy new books every week I wanted to read). I didn't know much about pricing. But I was watching one of those hot this week videos a bit ago, and when I went today, I saw a specific book raw, and thought the price looked high. There was actually two at two different prices...They were charging eBay graded 9.6 or 9.8 prices for RAW books. So basically, you could get a 9.8 on eBay EASY for the same price they were selling raw. You maybe could have actually did better on eBay by a few dollars. Is this normal? Because it made me really sad. Honestly, I didn't check any of the others, but all the valuable books looked really really high to me. I also don't think they have a $1 bin anymore. Everything was $3 or more. It looked like if you messed around in there, you might get a deal though. Lots of mid/low grade Goldens and 10-12 cent Marvel and DC. Would take hours though. I can't imagine any shop is doing very good, but I don't know. Also, since I am in there all the time, I noticed that if an issue jumps even a few dollars, all of a sudden, every copy is gone. Even if it sat for weeks like all the other singles. Wakanda 4 being an example. I was thinking it was speculators...but then I started to notice the number 1's would never show up and it would just be 2's and on, or no 2's after the 1 and 3, so I started to wonder if it was the employees pulling them.
If I did that it would go a little something like this Wife: Honey, what’s this charge for $3700? Me: Nothing, just picked up some first appearances at the comic book shop. Wife: (proceeds to google the best divorce attorney in our area).😅
My jaw dropped seeing that #300 in such great condition in just a backboard
It isn't hard to find that book regularly in a 9.0 or higher. It's a pretty common Copper Age book.
Exactly what I came to say, even if it’s in good condition, that thing better be in at least a hard top loader at least

I have a Marvel Spotlight #5 in a 3.5, so seeing a high grade made my heart skip a beat! 🔥

I’ve been wanting that ff49 man that’s a great deal
I came here thinking i had comic addiction but. . . I'm ok😂
$1000 for that ASM was a bit too much in my opinion.
I saw that too had to watch again and pause it to make sure I was seeing it right
@@whatsinthebox9981 yeah, a person can usually get a 9.4 CGC graded for 850.00 plus tax and shipping from E bay.
I'm sure he haggled on pricing..
Wow, i don’t feel so bad anymore about spending what i spent this month lmao
What alien comic is that anyone know ?
That's a lucky store
These are raw books 📚 he bought but I'm sure he can clean them and press them and send them off to CGC to make a good profit 📈.
yo that’s the mf comic book shop in everett that’s crazy
That's a serious store .
Where is this store located?!?!?
