What would you pay?

This is pretty straightforward, post your response with the item(you do not have to disclose what you paid if you don't want to) you bought or are thinking of buying. You can include where you got it from if you choose...

I'm starting this to try and develop a market value sense for printed material. I wanted to have somethng similar to the "Steals" thread in the toys/figures section. How many of you have bought something on EBAY or Amazon or anywhere and were unsure if you got robbed or not? I think we all have been duped at some point, so please keep reponses as professional as possible as I want this to be a reference thread.

I personally am not a grade junkie, but completely respect those who are. Though it's not a requirement of mine, you can include the grade of the purchased/prospective item/s

I'll start it off with this:

Challenges Hardcover book by Michael Dooney

Book is sealed in really good condition (VF to NM)

Paid 125.00

I love dooney and thought paying 6 times the average price of the TPB was a deal considering it's limited print run.

Dooney's Challenges (HC) was available from Mirage's website for something like $15 up until very recently. I guess they've finally sold out of it and now prices have skyrocketed, eh?

^^ I feel like "very recently" has been at least 6 - 9 months though I could be wrong. I recently got back into collecting after an extended hiatus. Thanks for the info!
