Comic Book Sales Highlights September 5 2012
This week I’ll highlight some sales from the August ComicLink focused auction. It looks like sales were brisk with a lot of money changing hands.
Some of the top sales were:
Action #1 CGC 8.0 restored $106,222
Showcase #22 CGC 9.2 $66,000
Avengers #4 CGC 9.6 $39,000, CGC 9.4 $14,805 (compare this with the Ohio Pedigree CGC 9.6 copy that sold for $91,501!)
Incredible Hulk #1 CGC 8.0 $29,000
Incredible Hulk #181 CGC 9.8 $20,000
Daredevil #7 CGC 9.6 $22,805 (This was pretty amazing to me, it is the first red suit, but still an amazing price for this book)
Silver Surfer #1 CGC 9.8 $14,235
Nick Fury #1 CGC 9.9 $9,977
I recommend you head over to Comiclink and register (it’s free) so you can take a look at these books and access the past auction prices. The Nick Fury 9.9 is something to behold, and there are several other amazing comics on the site.
