WOW!:o Wish I had the funds to buy that. A piece of history right there. Wonder who got it?....

Dont know if its true or not, but I just heard that an issue of Batman sold for $1,250,000.

Damn! Keeps getting higher!

I wonder how much they would of been worth if it wasn't for World War 2?

Batman wins....

I cant find it confirmed anywhere. Where did you hear that from?

ooops my numbers were wrong
but linkage

Wow, just three days after the Supes issue. Amazing. I wish I could find one of these things in like my Grandpa's attic.

I can't believe the highest ever selling price was previously 300 and something thousand dollars..and now two comics get sold for over a million each in the span of a week? Insane. I read somewhere that the batman comic sold previously for $100,000.

Yea, pretty amazing. Both books were CGC 8.0s and what's nuts is there are a few raw candidates out there that many say would be a 9.2/9.4 if graded (but the owner refuses to grade them). Those could be some truly insane prices. I think it was only a matter of time before the million $ mark was broken, and its fitting that these 2 books have done it.

Why would they do that?

Not into the whole CGCing thing. They have one of THE greatest comic collections around. Nearly everything is raw. Many higher end collecters have seen and held some of these books, and the Action #1 for instance most agree would be 9.2/9.4 and the TEC #27 would be a 9.4/9.6. Simply crazy grades for those books.

I'd be too scared to even be in the same room as these kinda of books, much less hold them! :o

And those 2 copies I mentioned, are just 2 of a TON of high grade comics. Bought nearly all of it originally years ago and simply took great care of everything.

Ah, I see. I think if I owned one of these I would be super protective of it. Dont think I could leave the house with it.:lol:

This is why I wish I was filthy rich. I would actually try to collect these type of things. Batman and Superman are legends.
