Yeah saw that too, interesting to see where it goes...

Hopefully closer the what the second last copy sold for not the most recent copy

My expectation is that it will sell for a bit less than the last copy to be honest. This is the third Universal 9.8 (of a total of 10) to come up for sale in the last 18 months which in my mind is a lot for a book selling for what Usagi 2 has sold for. I hope I am wrong though and it sets a new record.

Current Bid:
$11,000
w/ Buyer's Premium (BP) : $13,200.00
Auction ends in 5 days...
Best wishes to all.

Turns out my expectations were correct and this copy sold for a bit less than the last. Three of the 10 CGC 9.8 copies trading hands in less than 14 months is a lot of the market to absorb. Also I do not think this is the type of book you sell at Heritage. It is a ComicLink type of book. I think Heritage is better for golden age while ComicLink has the customer base that follow silver age to copper age.

In any event $31,000 (May 28, 2020) to $22,750 (May 27, 2020) to $19,800 (July 9, 2020).

Hopefully the next 9.8 will not come up for sale for another year or two so things can start trending upwards again.

Whoa!
